I'm relatively new to the system and haven't been able to find the answer in the forum, so please forgive me if I've missed something. (I've searched but maybe I've missed it to please feel free to direct me to the right thread.)
I've created some new lipstick CC and wanted to make both a matte version and a gloss version with the specular. I have created the original as matte which all works fine and then I've hit "save as" to save a different version with the spec map included. Even though they are two different files saved as different names, only my new save will show. I've deleted the cache but that hasn't helped. Is there are setting that I need to key in in the background for it to show as I wanted to do four versions of this lipstick that I made. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi When you click "Save as" it will only save a different version of your settings, but the item will actually be the same. So in game, it won't recognize the second one as it will have the same ID. If you want a second version of the same lipstick, you'll have to create a new one from start and replace everything OR, you can copy paste you package in the Recolorables directory (C:/Program files/Sims 4 Studio/ Recolorables), closing/restart S4S and then when creating the new CAS, select 'Custom' in the "Content" scrolling menu and chose your 1st lipstick as a cloned item

Another friend who makes CC explained that just saving another version wouldn't work and I'd have to redo it over again. I will give your suggestion a try! Really appreciate the response.
