Did you start a new package for each recolour or did you just import the new textures and then save it with a new name each time?
Also, are these recolours of CC because the body doesn't show up in studio when I open your packages?
If you just changed the texture and saved with a new name then that is the problem as the file will technically be identical inside as far as the game is concerned. If you want to make a lot of recolours for the same item that all show up under one CAS entry then you should just use the Add Swatch button instead.

This is cc. Not sure if I imported or started a new package. Package 1 works. Package 2-12 do not show up. I will try that. Thanks.

I am on my 2nd recolor. I made 30 swatches. I deleted the original. Some of the dresses are showing up in the thumbnail and some of them are not. When I go into the game the dresses work. How do I get these dresses to show up in catalog thumbnails? I must have skipped a step somewhere.

The way I've been doing recolours: Export as Create CAS Standalone, save new package with whatever name you fancy, and export texture Do whatever I fancy with the textures Open the new package and import one new texture Add another swatch and import another texture All my new textures are in the same package Do swatch thumbnails and any categorisation/whatever Save Put my new package into the game's mods folder, and start the game Open each item of clothing in CAS and the game will make a thumbnail ------- An example: My current thing is increasing diversity in the Sims. I found some nice full body dresses but they were sheer. I wanted opaque for my sims. I had to save as CAS Standalone each colour as a separate package. In each one I exported the texture. After that I only needed one of the packages - I could add all the new textures as swatches. New package only includes my new textures. Does this make sense?  |

Thanks, secretlondon. I LOVE this embroidery. Actually, I more than love it... I adore it. I don't use hijabs though.
My issue was a simple fix. All I had to do was import a thumbnail in s4s for each swatch that did not have one. I
do have a knack for skipping normal steps. But yeah. Please make more of these wonderful embroidered dresses.

The embroidery is Maxis's rather than mine - I just made the dress opaque rather than sheer. |
