Hello, so I'm just getting started with creating things in Sims 4 Studio, and I thought I'd practice first with an eye shadow. For reference, I followed this tutorial here:
Here are the steps I took to make the eyeshadow:
1. Clicked on create cas standalone
2. Pulled up an eyeliner base from the game, and saved that package in a folder I created (separate from the sims 4 studio folder) - later when looking for help I read somewhere that the package should be in your sims 4 studio mods folder AND your regular mods folder, so I copied it to both when I was done
3. Downloaded the female model and opened it up in clip studio paint, created a new layer, drew the eye shadow over the eye to fit it, and then I made the female model layer unseen and just saved the eyeshadow as a png. file
4. I imported the eyeshadow as a texture, and it does show up on the model in sims 4 studio, made sure the outfit type was switched to eyeshadow and fixed the categories, then I saved
The problem starts when I open my game and try to apply it to a sim. I still have the mods screen enabled for when I open sims 4, and I could see it on the list of mods I have. However when I try to look for in the makeup section it doesn't show up.
Also, if anyone needs to see the file I made, I'm not sure exactly how to get it up on here from my computer. This is my first thread, so if I could get help with that too it would be much appreciated. Thanks!
