Hi I'm pretty new at using S4S (running 3.2.06 Star) and I'm trying to re-categorize my CAS CC. I have viewed a few different tutorials all with the same instructions pretty much, but every time I go in game the package does not show up in the new category I picked. I have made sure I am selecting "Apply to all swatches" and I have also verified that in both the Studio section the new category is selected as well as in the Warehouse section all the CAS parts reflect the new category as well. I'm really at a loss and have been searching for an answer for a couple of days, but have yet to find one. Any guidance or help would be much appreciated.

Hi.
1). What does Sims 4 path in your s4s settings look like?
2). What exactly are you doing, as in from what to what categories are you going?

My path is this: C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 4\ (I'm using the EA app btw not sure if that makes a difference or not?) And I was trying to move some skin details to occult brow, occult eyelid, and occult mouth, and then some eyeliners and lipsticks to facepaint |

Oh, sorry, Sims 4 Documents path, the next one, what’s it’s like? Is there Onedrive in it?
if no, can you please share one example of the modified package?

C:\Users\miche\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 (I actually had that whole Onedrive ordeal going on, but was able to unlink it & put my "documents" back to default settings a few weeks ago or so it seems)
I uploaded an example (will remove once troubleshooting is done, hope this is what you met by example lmk if not)
This was originally in the eyeliner category and I moved it to face paint category (however doesn't reflect the changes in game for me at least)

It works fine for me. Don't you have two package files of this eyeliner by accident with only category changed (for example one in main folder and other in subfolder, or with names changed but still same package)? If yes then they duplicate and only one of them show in game. If you want to have them both then you can export all swatches and reimport them into new package file or put original eyeliner into s4s mods folder, open s4s, go to cas > select Content: Custom. Select all swatches, create new package, change category to facepaint and apply to all and then go to Tools > Modding > Embed All Externally Referenced Resources (CAS)

This worked for me!!
I had started playing around with creating a standalone package but was getting stuck because I didn't know how to get all the swatches over, so I was missing the "crtl + shift" portion in the workflow!
Thank you also mauvemorn!
