Start to Finish New Accessory Mesh for Beginners I-V

Hi orangemittens, thanks for your reply.
(I don't know if it is right)I have Blender installed into "This PC"-->"Downloads", there is the "Sims4Studio_v2.5.1.9 (Joy)" folder unzipped.

If I understand correctly, I want to show you this passage:




Were you talking about this?
Thanks for your help

..What a patience! Even if is all right, this prblem persists.

..now I try to unistall and re-install S4S and Blender both another time.
Thanks a lot

lrim, you have the wrong version of Blender installed. Studio requires 2.70 and the link to it is posted in the same post you downloaded Sims 4 Studio from along with a message saying that this is the Blender version you will need.

You're welcome

In step 8 you have to create the mesh and, before doing anything else, change the number of vertices while the mesh is still lit up orange (indicating it is the selected mesh). Once you place it and do something else with it the option to change the number of vertices is no longer available. To answer the first question I'd have to see a picture of what you're trying to achieve. No matter what the item is there are always multiple ways of creating that mesh so it's sort of creator's choice as to what would be the best/easiest route to take.

Hi Lesliem25, I apologize for the extremely late response. I've looked at your mesh and the entire earring portion has its faces flipped backward. In Blender you can see this more clearly if you turn on the backface culling. When backface culling is off you see both sides of a surface when it is on you only see the front side of the surface. Here is how to turn that on and what your earring looks like when you do:



To fix that you need to select all the faces that require flipping the other direction.  For me the easiest way of doing this is to go to Edit mode and choose Wireframe shading before box selecting all the vertices that need to be changed:



Once all the vertices of the earring portion of the mesh are selected click the w key on your keyboard to bring up the Specials menu.  Select Flip Normals on the menu:



When you do this you will notice that your earring mesh needs a little tweaking because the small ring that connects it to the bar that goes through the ear is sticking a little bit through the front surface of the earring mesh.  After doing that small tweak save the earring.blend and import it back to your .package:




If you run into more questions let me know   Thank you for telling me the links are broken...I've fixed them now.

I didn't see your response until you asked about it. I've wondered that also. My guess is that you clicked the wrong thing during the mirror step and flipped the faces. Since you didn't have backface culling on you wouldn't see that they flipped. When you first start using Blender it's easy to have something like this happen because of all the keyboard shortcuts...even now I occasionally have some odd thing happen because I accidentally clicked the wrong key.
