Halp.
Has this happened to anyone else? I've just installed the AL Patch and Kitchen Stuff.

Happened to me too, and I haven't installed a single patch. Me green evil witch also have a green scalp, the replacement worked nicely before.
Also, apparently she has elder eyebrows...

From the looks of it, she's an elder with adult hair. I've got one of those running around my game right now,
without
the patch. I think it's just another EAxian screwup.

Wasn't there a patch to Seasons, or BV maybe that messed up the hair colour of NPCs? I remember seeing lots of mismatched eyebrows and hair... With BV, there were enough people with Charlatans in the wrong costume that Pes made the monocle available, so we could re-dress them.
I have the patch and the same problem with missing hats. Are the hats available in the change appearance dialog? I didn't check myself but if they are, you can use the batbox to re-costume the affected NPCs.

It was the Pets patch. This problem doesn't to seem to affect other NPCs, just the witches.

Not to mention I don't have the patch, so it can't be it.

I thought the patch was supposed to fix something to do with witches hats/hair? I'll go look.

Witch's hats no longer become the default hairstyle when a Sim witch ages.
Maybe you have to change the hair manually using a mirror to get the hats back?

I think everyone is missing the point...
Emma: That fix looks like it's to do with playable sims, when they age, their default hair is the witch hat.
The NPC Good and Bad Witch now no longer wear their hats at all. Also, in mine and Crashs case, the evil witch turned into a ginger.

I needed to change a Sim's name. When I did, I got a pop-up of all the Sims in the hood. I saw 3 evil witches and 3 ninjas on the list. I'm not sure about duplicates of the other witch types, but anti-redundancy was in the game before the hood was even started. Two of the evil witches in the portraits have regular hair instead of the witch's hats.
I haven't seen these two witches in person yet, but was surprised that they weren't wearing their normal hats. I don't have anything in the game that changes what NPCs wear, nothing witch related, no downloaded skins, or anything that I can think of that would have caused this either. Like the OP, I'm stumped. I don't remember if this occurred before or after installing the AL patch, but all other patches were already in place.
Creaturefixes takes care of the scalp problem.

I have all other patches - none for AL. It's the NPC witches in the new hood that this has happened to. I haven't even seen them with hats.
I have the AL dc - so I got creaturefixes with that. My good witch doesn't have a hat either - and even though I am using no-layer fix for the good witch, that I know works, she's having these glittery splotches all over her face - and only her face. It looks disturbing to say the least. I'm not sure what could have happened between when it worked and now. Could this be cc related? Or is it just a coincidence that I've got more than one problem at once with the witches? I have no idea at this point.

ok, you changed the SKIN of the witches. Did you take off the AURA also? I used to have two tone witches after I got a fix to change the witch skins to normal until I took off the aura also. After that they finally had normal skins.
on the hat issue: I noticed all my witches with custom hair go bald every time they have a birthday. most annoying. and of course if they change the level off goodness/evilness they also go bald.... grrrrrr

Creaturefixes has a fix for the baldness.
Why would taking away the aura help with the skin issue?

Is it at all possible it's to do with the custom skin overlay? I can't see why it should be but ... my good witch for Little Carping finally generated last night (I've been waiting a while, the evil one turned up a couple of weeks ago). He had his hat (he also turned up in daylight which I thought he wasn't supposed to do). I've not yet put in the overlays I downloaded because I haven't seen enough of the wicked witch to get sick of the sight of that vile green skin (though the sparkles indeed made him look diseased). I patched and everything - it's an otherwise clean hood with the noregen hacks in Downloads.

Mine are fine too, and I have no skin overlays either.

I'm not sure what the common factor is, but it's not skin overlays or patch. I do not have skin overlays, and it doesn't look like Tigerlilley's witches in the first post have them either. Interestingly, the evil NPC witch is red-haired in my game, too.
I was busy tracking down another issue so didn't have time to check whether the hats are available in CAS. I'd assume they would be. Tigerlilley, did that not fix your NPCs?

This is a long shot, but do you guys having trouble by any chance have Squinge's hack that makes witches not change outfit when they change alignment? Could it possible screw with the witches when they generate?
If I knew how to delete npc's to let the game generate a witch again, I'd test it out myself...

I have created several more hoods and have not had a repeat of the Hat weirdness. I am wondering if applying patch #1 caused witches to switch the hats that they were wearing at the time of applying the patch, thus affecting only current witches.
Has anyone created any new hoods post patch and seen the hat problem in the new hood?

I have not applied the patch at all, as I've said several times already, so it's likely not patch related - unless I have an issue that is completely unrelated but exactly the same.

Does Non-fat Gwilly People count, because I have removed Squinge's version, since I don't trust it.
