I apologize if this has been posted and asked already, but i couldn't find anything.

The flat color in PS when saved as DDS shows weird green tint. It seems to happen only on whiteish/gray colored areas. I tried reduce noise, remove JPEG artifact, saving as PNG (which is worse). PS Profile was set to sRGB and i tried setting destination to sRGB as well, and it didn't help. It seems like some compression issue but i am not smart enough to figure out how to fix it.

Here's how color looks in PS

prnt.sc/rebbbw

And in S4S, and game also shows green tint, depending on the shade it is more or less

prnt.sc/reb74r

Some of my ideas:
It can be stretched because of the uv map (low poly in some places can cause your texture to stretch until it fit)
Also, your texture is never 100% white, some stuff have a lot of faded colors that made it looks white, try removing all it's saturation (ctrl U) and see if it helps.
Talking about the texture, low resolutions can also do the same thing, the sims4studio usually use a lower resolution instead of the highest possible, so it can change in game (happened to me)
Another idea is the dds format, there's a lot of dds versions when exporting, try using the biggest one.

I feel like just giving up at this point.

I can live with it. Looks decent. prnt.sc/relo6o

Oh, I barely can see anything, it's really an advancement.
I was thinking in other ideas too, like, are you using uncompressed textures?(it's in the options)
Also, are you creating a 4k texture? The game could be using a LOD version of it and the compression would cause this...
Another option is the uv map (again) using a part too small of the texture causing it to stretch

Using uncompressed, all high and ultra. Did bigger area on the uv, and i always make it 1024. Nothing helped, but this, assining sRBG then converting profile, it helped a bit so the colors are not noisy. Thank you for suggestions tho 😊
