My newly created Wall & Floor 'recolor's are only showing 3rd out of a set of 3 in BuildBuy mode.
I suspect it has something to do with unique IDs. Since they are all simple recolors, it appears they keep overwriting one another til only one visible.
My intent was to create a set of regular, medium and dark basic colors for both walls and floors. In the end, I wound up with 6 files total.
Am I missing something in S4S? Do I have to do something elsewhere?

Hi. Did you create them with File - Save as?

Hi. Did you create them with File - Save as? No, I simply clicked the Save button at the bottom right, next to the Cancel button, after I reworked (add/replace) all the descriptions, swatches and thumbnails. Then I went in where the .package(s) are being saved, and copy the file and renaming the copy with a unique filename. After all 6 files (3 floors/walls) were done, I opened each one again in S4S to check description, cost, swatches and thumbnails again. Everything looks proper, but only the 3rd in each of the two sets appears in Build/Buy mode. |

Yeah, that's the same thing.
To create a standalone item(item with unique identifiers), you must clone it, not copy. Simply copying does not change the identifiers, so all of them merge into one package.
Just clone a new wallpaper the usual way and import the textures there

Thank you for your tip!! I will work on that today.  UPDATE: Thanks to a very helpful suggestion *wink*, I actually went back and started over! I started over, selected "Drywall" for my recolor, used a unique file name, then set to work on creating/importing different swatches and clicking the "Save" button at the end. I repeated this for each of the three in the series of three and it worked!! I now have three individual entries in Build/Buy mode - Walls. Now, to figure out how to successfully add stats to my CC. THANK YOU AGAIN, mauvemorn!! |
