Hi Everyone! andrew I've searched the forum about this particular subject but all I could find were the things I've already done/tried. I've uploaded some screenshots of the problem into my dropbox so you can see what happens. I've been trying to load my CC into S4S but with help of this tutorial and several other posts about this subject but I stil wasn't able to get it done . After some switching between settings somehow 1 cc package file managed to show up... I have no clue why because I haven't done anything different(?). Just selecting the map (documents --> S4S --> Mods) where the CC suppose to appear, after a few times it just worked. Unfortunately my problem hasn't been solved; the other package file that should show up in S4S (Alf-si default eyes) doesn't come up. Since it's not a consistent problem, somehow the top showed up after changing the map in settings a few times, I'm kinda lost here . After clicking on the top and cloning it i'm also not able to select a swatch in the warehouse tab. When I try the only thing that happens is a black line around the part I'm trying to select. Only the first entry in the warehouse tab is selected as you can see. This probably explains why the delete button is greyed out? I have a iMac that has a Windows partition (where S4S, Origin, TS4 is installed) that serves as a virtual machine for Parallels. I haven't encountered any problems like this yet and don't think that this is an issue, since both systems are completely separated but just mention it in case it plays a part. Hopefully somebody knows how this can be solved any tips are very welcome!! It could but something very simple that I'm doing wrong so I'll apologize in advance .

Hi orangemittens, thank you for your reply! Normally this isn't a issue for me that my swatch shows up first but with EA mesh recolors I like to have them last. My OCD was troubling me a bit haha as I tested them out I noticed how used I am (and probably more simmers) to the order of appearance of the EA swatches. So I had trouble finding the gate sometimes :P. Just for the next time; If I have a recolor with multiple swatches I've made, do I always give them the value 80? or does it go up/down depending on the number of swatches you've made and which place you want them to appear? Maybe a better question, what does it represent? the value 80 Thank you so much for your help

I'm not sure if I understood you correctly. Do you want your swatch/color to show up in the EA catalog entry rather than creating a new one for that item? This can be done with the Prototype ID. There's a tutorial HERE I recommend you to read. That example was done with walls but the process is the same. Hi Mathcope! Thanks for the fast reply. No it's about the order the swatches appear in game, mine is now added to the existing EA gate but shows up first rather then last as I think it supposed to be. When I go to Gates and I scroll through the list I now see the gate but with my swatch in the thumbnail instead of a EA swatch which I think has to do with the way the swatches are categorized.

Hi everyone! and orangemittensIf been here for a little while but just started creating cc (nothing fancy, still in the recolor fase ). I added a swatch to a EA gate but now my swatch is the first shown swatch which I kinda don't want... it's a subtle add-on only now not so subtle anymore! whaha! I've searched the forum over here and the tutorial section but found nothing that resembles my question. Found a tutorial from Peacemaker but he uses sp4e which I've also tried (last version) but when I open the package-file and look at the IMG it says it has encountered an error reading the resource so I can't see which swatch is which. Is there a way to do this in S4S? Or is there another way to make the swatches appear in EA order with mine at the bottom instead as the first swatch? Greetings! Renorasims.

Hi ringlet, welcome to Studio forums. I hope you stick with your idea for creating things and I think you're right to start with less difficult projects...the people who jump into the deep end often burn out before they can get the first project finished. Also, if you give it a bit more time Studio will have a Mac version. It's not going to turn up tomorrow but the plan is in the works Was looking for some answers about a mac version for S4S will be on the look-out over here! Looking forward to it
