so i followed a youtube tutorial on combining hair meshes together and i did all the steps including making sure of the cut numbers but my mesh doesn't want to show up in s4s   I think i did it all correct, it is my first time so i probably did miss something. |

Hi ! Did you try to join your meshes together ? (select all your meshes with shift, then in object mode press ctrl+j) I'm a beginner too so maybe I'm saying something really stupid (and you all are invited to correct me if that's the case) but sometimes that's how I solve this kind of problem and it works... Just test it for the moment until someone makes a more professionnal answer and save it as a new blend file. If that doesn't change anything, the key of the problem may be in the warehouse (I think !!).

Upload the package and blend file somewhere aliffdean and someone can look at it. |

Hi, did you change the cut numbers of your hair? i didn't change the cut numbers, i merged part of the meshes from two different hair meshes and joined them to the same cut number |

Even though you have merged the two items, you need to open up another mesh in Sims 4 Studio. Open a mesh that is similar to your new mesh and then export it. You will see the different mesh groups on the panel to the right. Click on them and then the parts of the mesh should be highlighted. At the bottom right-hand corner column, scroll all the way to the bottom and you should see the cut numbers. For this particular part of the hair, you will need to check what the cut numbers. For example, if the mesh that you exported (the one that you check the cut numbers for), had the cut number 0001 when the fringe was clicked, you would need to go back to your mesh, select the fringe that you made and change the cut number to 0001. Then, on the example mesh, you'll check the cut number for the longer part of the hair- let's say it's 0002. Again, you would go back to your mesh and put the longer hair part of the mesh as the cut number 0002. The next thing you need to do is to save the file and import it into the example mesh on S4S, NOT the mesh which you downloaded your parts to make your mesh. This is because you changed the cut numbers to match the example mesh.
To make this easier, think of the cut numbers as co-ordinates on a graph- the cut numbers tell S4S where to place the meshes that you have merged.
