Thank you for replying! Yes I did put the original mesh in the mods folder, and my recolor wouldn't show up at all. I think I may be confused on the cloning process, and do I need to change or rename anything in the warehouse tab?
I also tried to recolor Maxis items and they would show up in the catalog but when I used them they looked like the rainbow background with the lime green question mark.

You need to use the correct image size for the images that you import into Studio or else the game will not recognize them. For a recolor of custom content you will not need to change anything in the Warehouse. If you can't get it working post your .package and I'll take a look at it  |

How do I make sure I have the right size? I don't change them when I edit them.
Here are some that I tried. I cant remember which ones were maxis recolors.

I checked the Disney Princess one and I think you saved the image in the wrong format. All I did was export your image, open it in Paint.net, and save it as a .dds DXT1. It showed up fine in the game:  What tool are you using to save your images and what settings are you using when you save? |

Hello! I'm sorry to bother. I've followed this tutorial for hair recolor/texturing and it's worked just fine before. However, I wanted to try to make custom eyes (the facepaint/"Contacts"/non-default kind). So I put in a custom eye set I found so I could clone it and just replace the textures, but they aren't showing up in S4Studio?

Hi balljointed, welcome to Studio forums. If you post the .package you're trying to clone as custom content I can take a look at it.

Are you sure you put it in your Studio mods folder? It shows up for me:  |

Well that's embarrassing. I must've not used the right searchword or something, because they wouldn't show up prior (but do now). Sorry to waste your time!

Hi there! I was wondering if you might not mind helping me figure out how to recolor this (specifically, fourth from the left on the top row on both angles): nachio.tumblr.com/post/117485749845/dragonages-elf-vallaslin-for-sims4-faceWhen I open the .dds file in PS it gets all... Small and pixel-y. I looked at the 'Making a tattoo' tutorial, but since I don't have the image that was originally used, I'm not certain it would help. If you could point me in the right direction I'd owe you one! |
