my sims portraits were blank in create-a-sim, and then when i moved the family into the house and started furnishing, the pop up descriptions of the items would blink out AND the portraits of each item was blank. only hiccup was i had trouble drag+dropping the cracked sims.exe file into my program files, and i had to specifically use the 'move to' option at the top of the finder window.Īnyway, the game loaded in ok! but the hud is doing something funky. This installation process worked just fine for me.
