Skin Problems
Katheryne:
Okay, guys, I need some serious help here!
I was playing the Sims the other day, playing a couple of sims I had created recently. Both are using custom skins, and I no longer know which skin was used on either of them.
Anyways, one of the sims went to go take a shower. When she got undressed, her entire body from the neck down disappeared! I had this problem once before, a long time ago, and I tracked down and removed the bad skin, forcing the sim to take on Maxis-default skin, and all was well. Now, however, I have entirely too many skintone files to be able to do this without spending an inordinate amount of time and pulling out all my hair. To make matters worse, SimPE cannot open my neighborhood file, throwing no fewer than 450 errors before I gave up and force-closed SimPE.
So what I need to know is: How can I identify exactly which skintone file is being used by a particular skin? Also, is there any way (hack, mod, whatever) to replace a sim's skin in-game?
On a semi-related note, I have also noticed that, with very few exceptions, most of my sims have significant graphical defects, particularly in the chest area. These usually only show up when a sim is undressed, but in many cases, they even show up through certain clothing. These defects show up as weird-shaped "holes" in the sim that I can see right through. Anyone know what could be causing this?
Thanks bunches in advance for any help you can give.

If you are using a body shape for some of your sims, you will need linked skintones for them. This is so that the bodyshape doesnt dissapear when using bath or shower.
When you are in bodyshop, you can use the mouse and hover over the icons for the skins in your catalog. Before you enter CAS, you can enter the boolprop code in neighborhood and once your in CAS you can also see names, but most creators also make icons recognisable for skins. ChristianLov had a skintone changer, but they maynot be compatible for recent ep's, although some still use it with them risks. *think graveyard*

You seem to have the skintones, what you need are the meshes! If the skintones are linked to Warlokk's meshes, you probably just need his giant Nude Mesh download.
Katheryne:
As far as I know, the skintone in question uses the standard Maxis mesh, although it wouldn't surprise me if it were Warlokk-linked. The skin displays just fine with "naked" clothing...
I really wish a VB version of SimPE would hurry up and come out.

I have BV and it works fine for me!
