Unreal Engine Abandoned LifePlay [v2023.04 Stable] [Vinfamy]

Not sure if this is a common issue, or what's causing it...

I just got myself version 5.13 (I haven't downloaded .14 yet), and started a new game. However, my character CANNOT get a job, every time he's going to go for an interview, he says, "I hope I'm dressed properly," then strips completely naked for the interview, which results in him being rejected.

Any idea how to fix this?

So, I bought all the business related clothes I could (I was already wearing the argyle vest with dress pants and shoes). When I applied to a job, it redressed me into some other clothes, then when I actually went to the interview, it stripped me again.

Still can't get employment.

(Edit)
I've disabled nudity matters, just in case that's the issue.

Before your edit I was going to say it shouldn't actually matter if you're naked in the interview. The interview should proceed normally. Sounds like it's a mod issue though. I will say though that it looks like that scene no longer tries to dress your character in certain clothes for the interview anymore in 5.14 (not sure which updated actually made that change). That probably means the mod you're using needs an update if it's overriding that particular scene.

Edit: multiple edits for clarity

There really should be a tutorial that forces you to go buy work clothes.

Nah. Just edit the file to include whichever clothes you want and buy them. It should work fine. Try wearing said clothes before try for an interview.

They said they're using the Nudity Matters mod though, which is presumably overriding the job_interview scene. The base game scene no longer tries to dress up the PC for the interview, so you shouldn't end up naked unless you started the interview that way.

Which Nudity Matters are you using? dbcaf's original or my edited one?

Does anyone else's game crash when you try to have sex with someone your in a relationship with? This is happening for me with and without mods installed. I haven't been able to have a relationship with someone ever because of this.

It turns out it was the Nudity Matters mod, I'm using version 2.1. It took me SOME time to get the prompt to look for a job, the game seems to stop doing that after a couple of days. Is there a way to get it to do a prompt I want it to?

Also... is it possible to save outfits to keys? For example, my apartment is automatically saved to 0, my job to 1, university to 2, and so on... it would be nice to be able to change outfits with a single button.

The prompts are just suggested actions. The look for a job one will pick a building at random for the interview, but you can travel to any of the "work" buildings on the map yourself and use the "Attend a job interview" action.

You can save and load outfits with the buttons on the bottom left in the "Change clothes" menu, but I'm not aware of any way of binding the outfits to keys. I tend to pick very simple names for outfits just to make changing outfits quicker, like "e" for everyday, "g" for gym, "s" for sleep, etc.

Except I also use that mod and have no issues with with this.

This may be the issue. He could have an outdated mod that is goofing with things.

Casual, work, gym, swim. Something easy that makes sense is all.
