Hi everyone,

So I'm creating my first ever mesh and everything was going somewhat well until I imported the mesh into sims 4 studio. In Blender, the mesh looked like this:

Now the mesh looks like this:

Just wondering if anyone knows why the texture changed so much and why it's so much more shiny/whiter. I'd much rather it look like how it was in Blender.

Sorry for not inserting the images directly into the post, they weren't appearing when I tried haha

Don't rely on the way texture looks in Blender or in Studio. Check what it looks like in the game. There is a different light set up in Blender in Studio than in the game, but Studio gives the closest look. Blender puts an additional shadow on the mesh which make texture to look darker. If you want darker texture then make it darker in 2D editing software.

Thanks for replying! Probably should have made it a bit clearer in the post, but I was mainly talking about how one of the side bits and a bit of the ponytail has that white patch that isn't in blender. I just tried darkening the whole texture and those two areas are still much lighter than in the mesh in Blender.

Please post your files so we can see it.
