Recolor an EA Object With Sims 4 Studio

The process of recoloring a bed is the same as that of recoloring a painting. If you aren't sure which parts of the image correspond to what parts of the object, this tutorial HERE (uses a bed as an example item) may help you.

Hi FallenNights, various factors go into the in-game appearance of a recolor, so it's difficult to know what the issue is with your item without looking at the image and the package you've imported it into. Also important are the settings you have when saving and the file type you're saving as. Are you using .dds or .png?

Hi there, could you please share your package file, so we can help you out in the best possible way? Thank you! :-)

OK, so i figured out the first problem, Duh configure game path, except... my game is stored on an external hard drive due to very very very low disk space on my Mac, I keep trying to configure it to the external harddrive and it is not working whatsoever.

Yes! I would love to know that too. I'm struggling to change the Get Famous "Queen" stuff to gold that suits - Listless Divan, Book Repository, Wardrobes, Guilded Shelf etc but haven't been able to. I don't understand the recolour technique really because it doesn't show how to recolour, just how to replace the image of a painting which isn't recolouring to another colour which has textures etc. One of those couches (listless divan) has the gold I want but the couch has animal print as the main colour. I want the couch, wardrobe, shelf etc to be that dark gold and bit of white as the wood so complete inverted, but can't make it work. I would love to make all the stuff in that dark gold and white but can't switch it or replicate the gold properly and have it the same in all the items.

I know how to replace some of the colours and adjust with hue/saturation, adjustment layers etc in Photoshop, but not anything else. I seem to get nowhere trying to change any of the content or custom content the way I would like to - Create my own doon covers etc. I think having the mac is part of the issue because you are limited to what you can do on Sims4 Studio. It's amazing you can create anything and I'm appreciative, just frustrated about finding ways to do anything on the mac when most of the tools are windows based.

Hi shirokuma, this is a bug, and Studio will need an update to fix it. Thank you for pointing this out.

So...I'm working on my first recolor, and I'm doing it with the "Classic Movie Keepsakes" wall decor. I have been able to look through the tutorials and figure out everything except how to change the ingame item name and description. It's driving me insane. The only related places I could find I already changed, but it has no affect ingame, I guess? It just continues to display EA's object name and description.

EDIT:

So I literally don't remember what I did because I got angry and just started clicking on things, but it fixed the title. Problem is, there isn't a description selector at all now so it just shows up as *DEBUG* for the description.
