Hello all! I'm a VERY new CC creator, and I'm trying to create a forehead tattoo. I'm using the forehead wrinkles in game as a base, and have the file in the correct size and all ready to go. However, when I import the PNG it's puts the tattoo on the leg or lower body even though other than that it looks perfect. How do I move the tattoo to the place I want it in sims 4 studio without a mesh as it's not asking for a mesh because it's a tattoo and does not seem to require a mesh.

Hi. My guess is that you may be putting the tattoo in the wrong location on the map but would need to see the file. Share it with us please by uploading on the file sharing website like mediafire.com

But how do I get a UV map without creating a mesh? I'm really new at this

There is already a mesh - the body. It is uv unwrapped in a specific way. The texture of the tattoo will be projected onto the right area of the body if you will put the tattoo where said area is unwrapped. You will have an easier time locating the right area using these images as a guide. You may also find this useful. You can project entire images using the stencil tool - make the head selectable, select it; - in the texture tab click on a new slot and press New to create a new one, then press New to create a new image. Make it 1024x2048 and set Alpha to 0; - switch to Texture paint, choose Slots, switch to the new image; - optionally you can also choose it in the uv editor  |

Thank you for your help. Looking at the image did help. I knew that the required dimensions were 1024X2048 because S4S wont let you upload anything else. I guess I didn't realize that every spot on that image represented a specific part of the sims. I think i got it now.
