Hello! I made a whole bunch of canvas paintings with hatsune miku on them for my own personal use, but after leaving the game for a while and returning recently, the paintings are no longer working. They appear in the catalogue but when I try to place them, they remain red and wont be placed, regardless of if I have moveobjects on or not. If I open the recolorable painting directly form th sims4studio install folder, and edit it from there, I get a working painting, but if I try to remake it trough sims4studio the problem persists. I tried all of this in the newest version that I downloaded today, though the paintings were made in an older version sometime last year. Is there any possible way I could make the old files work relatively simply? I ask this because I made MANY paintings in different sizes (I resized the mesh, but let me be clear, the problem persists with the mesh I also didnt touch so that is not the problem) and I would want to exhaust all other solutions before re-applying the textures again, because even though the editing of the textures is already done, it will still take a LOT of time to re-apply them. Here is a link to one of the package files, there are more, but they all have the same issue |

I would guess you created a painting and then used it for standalone recolors. At some point, you removed it from your mods folder, so now your recolors are missing resources. If so, this package will fix all your paintings: miku-canvas_rigfootprint.packageBut I also guess you used different paintings for standalone recolors. |

Unfortunately, that did not fix my paintings, they are still unplacable. I do know for 100% sure that I haven't moved any files related to the paintings, when I came back to the game I of course updated my old mods, but the paintings are in their own folder by themselves and I didn't touch them. These paintings were made off of the "recolorable canvas" item that comes with sims4studio. I also attempted to put the .package file of that item that I found in the sims4studio folder, even though I never had to do that before, but that also didn't fix the problem :( |

Your packages don't have rigs and footprints, which is typical for standalone recolors. The package I shared fixes the one you shared. First of all, check it in the game. If everything is okay, follow the instructions below. Otherwise, please report it. Option 1. External resources1. Open your package in S4S. 2. Click the Warehouse tab. 3. Click the first Object Definition. 4. Rig — Edit Items. Copy this instance (1). 5. Footprint — Edit Items. Copy this instance (2). 6. Close your package. 7. Open miku-canvas_rigfootprint.package. 8. Click Rig > Duplicate > Paste the first (1) instance into the Instance field > OK. 9. Click Footprint > Duplicate > Paste the second (2) instance into the Instance field > OK.  10. Repeat for all your packages. Note: You can merge these resources and your packages later: save them to C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\Sims 4 Studio\Mods and use Selective Clone. 1. Steps 1-5. 2. Open miku-canvas_rigfootprint.package. 3. Select all > Batch Export. ![]()  4. Close miku-canvas_rigfootprint.package and go back to your package. 5. Click Batch Import > Import both rig and footprint resources. 6. Click Rig > Paste the first (1) instance into the Instance field.  7. Click Footprint > Paste the second (2) instance into the Instance field. ![]()  8. Save and reopen your package. Now you can use Studio's automatic footprint feature. 9. Repeat for all your packages. |

If everything is okay, follow the instructions below. Otherwise, please report it. Turns out that I tested the .package with the merged file and not the file that I sent, which is my bad  But anyway, thanks for explaining it to me, I tried it and these methods are working to fix the issue so now I'm going to go fix my paintings, thanks so much for helping me! |
