How to Make a Standalone Eye Recolor

Hi orangemittens
so I found a question as while I'm editing my eye packages on the Studio
Caregories: to Mark:
< Age ,Gender, Flags to mark or unmark
all in this

<colors:
well on dark brown <- (this just example)there are non

< Age Appropriate:
all are checked

<occult:
Human only

<Outfit Type:
athlectic, Everyday, swim, nude, formal, situation, party, sleep

<color pallet
None

<fabric:
None

<Archetype:
all checked

<eye color:
only the selected color of eye AKA Dark brown.

<part Flags:
checked allow for random

so my over all question was Why are ther only few color in just that section was wondering figured while messing around in That area, Noticed at the top under Color you have

are another set of various color included such as while and Orange and ther in that list is the purple.

I was just looking at most of these while I was editing and tring figure out my issue wih my cc eyes I created for default and just figure i might ask why it see so few colors yet mixed some what?
not sure if this is some that made with the game to genate like that or something.
it seemed a bit confusing for when i created eye ther not marked as the proper color not speicifc. while I was creating thinki complied a list of the color's from here :
here is a complete list of al 18 colors and codes to them.
1. Black eye-#1D1D22
2. Dark brown eye - #3A251D
3. Brown - #604733
4. LightBrown- #936C4F
5. Hazel Green- #808931
6. Hazel Olive Green- #879460
7.Light Green- #A4D084
8. Green- #58B93A
9. Hazel blue dark- #739F88
10.Hazel blue- #497368
11. Aqua- #66AEB4
12. Ligthblue- #7F9DC8
13. Blue- #6075A3
14. Dark blue- #69808F
15. Grey aka silver- #ABAEB6
16. Hazel grey brown- #655B5E
17. Amber- #924346
18. purple- #B462BB
as Marked and the name's.

But in all all of this seems a bit cofuseing but I t figured I'd ask
I was havien issue where I was trying straigthen out my CC eye which is marked in this pic :
the one marked as Not cc are the regular eyes an I left ever thing in in the eye categories as there are showen about I actual didn't mess with ever untill I went back to see if ther some thing I need to uncheck or check. This picture was take before I messed with any thing. I was also comparing it to the brown eye swatch as why it says on the brown the list above. and that Wrench thingy is sooo over annoying ~_~:
so yet haveot figure out why the package is marking the Un-cc'ed eyes as cc along with my CC one and figure,cuase any thing I've uncekck still has it like that idk why tho. and this is just the purple eye i'm workin on fixing see i've created a Entire set of 18 defaults one I get them fixed i'll posted them in my studio for all.

Sorry if i'm alway full of questions It just makes me wonder.

It will but You can make them for all both male and female and child even if it on a adult model. it should work for all of them.

orangemittens I noticed when I went back to redo my eyes orangemittens there in order  the color, to the list I posted above that so much easier instead of hop,skip and jump to find the next color in the list, Of eye default colors.

I really like that a lot cause it takes less stress of find the next one comparing a color list to a swatch of them.

Hi thisissimtastic, welcome to Studio forums. Brujah wrote a video tutorial that goes over the basics of how to use a 2D editor and posted that HERE. Although it uses an accessory as the tutorial item the basic process of using a 2D editor is the same no matter what you're creating. If I've misunderstood the question could you explain a little more about what you need to know?

If you Google how to make a human eye texture in _____ and add the editor of your choice in the blank you should find several tutorials going over the process

luckygamr Thumbnail Swatch color and custom catalog thumbnails are two different things. For example, some CAS items, like hairs, clothes, make up, etc have the option of including a custom catalog thumbnail. That is an image of how it will show in the catalog. Many creators put their name over the file, and many others change the generated game file for one of its own. That happens with objects too.

In the other hand the thumbnail swatch color is the color that will show up in the upper part of the catalog. Where you choose which one to use. In the case of eyes it will tell people which color to spect when using your CC.

Using this method will add a new color swatch thumbnail to the list of EA ones. In the EA catalog there is no place to include an custom image thumbnail to show up in the catalog. However, which many CC creators do out there is making Contact eyes, under the makeup category, that category allows a custom thumbnail image.

There's a tutorial HERE that may help you understand the custom thumbnail functionality.
