Hello!
I've never created mods before, and only wiggled my feet slightly in anything remotely related to modding. I have been using Kijiko's EA Eyelash Remover, however, it stopped working with the latest update. And since that mod is crucial in my gameplay, I decided it would be the perfect opportunity to get into modding and CC-making more seriously while creating a new mod.
But I've run into a slight — major — hiccup, I don't know which file controls EA lashes. I assume I have to overwrite that file, but I'm unsure how to do it if I can't find it in the first place.
Thanks,
Runesday™.

Hi. Eyelashes are a part of the head (they are just hidden within the head) and this mod is just a head replacer. - in s4s main menu choose Overwrite, then click CAS; - filter the result by « Head », find the one for the frame you want, Next, name it something; - in Mesh tab click on Export, open this blend file; - in 3d view select the head, switch to edit mode (TAB); - in uv editor select everything with A, in the drop-down menu choose the skin texture to get a better idea of where eyelashes are; - enable sync, press B, click and drag to select the uvs of the eyelashes (they are under the eye uvs);  - in 3d view press Delete, choose Faces; - select everything with A, Remove doubles with Merge distance set to 0,0001;  - save, import back into s4s; -Shift Ctrl C to open a console, type in « headfixer », press Enter. Save, check in-game

hello..
unfortunately, it seems that whenever i put the modified package into the game, the face alters so that presets applied on previous created sims don't show and the eyes are abnormally wide.

Oh, sorry, I forgot about one step. Open the package you made, Shift Ctrl C to open a console, type in « headfixer », press Enter. Save, check in-game

Just chiming in because I have the same issue with the eyelash remover. I got around it by using eye presets that don't have lashes.
When you go to choose the head in the catalog there are two choices for females: yfHead and ygHead_Mannequin (it's the same for male heads). The yfHead does not have eyelashes but the yfHead_Mannequin does. Which one should be cloned?
I'm assuming it's not the mannequin that should be cloned, but the yfHead, as I stated above, doesn't have eyelashes. I'm missing something important and obvious here, I sure of it...

thank you! that alone has helped me so much knowing i'm not the only one with a broken eyelashes mod. now guess we have to wait to hear of a solution. and also, i did find eyelashes in the yfHead package. they're hidden within the head, and i deleted them by linking it up to the uv editor and selecting them (the mesh in the black area where the lashes should be), pressing x, and deleting vertices.

is the preset custom? Can you try this package? It works fine for me If it will still not work, its the problem with a preset |

the presets affected are the ones for the eyes and mouth.
the mouth preset is a custom. however, the eye preset is an EA default.

Are you talking about the rim of the eye socket? I honestly cannot see anything that looks like lashes in the head. |

if you go into edit mode in blender, link the selection of viewport to the uv editor. and clip into the head, you can see the eyelashes inside the head behind the eyes.

Then you will have to wait until s4s is updated and whatever that was changed about heads is included into the packages it can create Until then you can try to recreate the eyes using the eyelash-free eye preset

I'm not seeing eyelashes. There's the eyeball, the eye socket, the rims of the eye socket. No lashes. I'm using Studio 3.2.06. I wonder if that's why. The eyelash UV islands are directly below the eyeball UV islands, aren't they? Edit: Never mind. They are directly behind the eyeball in the head. I'm blind. |
