I've been trying to make the maxis robe that came with Kitchen & Bath EP have Bloom's Sexy Feet.
I've managed to succesfully cut the slippers and change the feet but there's a new problem on the UV Map the belt from the robe overlaps the feet and I can't remove the textures off the feet.

Is there any good guides out there for UV Mapping and can anyone give me a few pointers? :)
Any help would be appreciated - Thanks  ;D

Few asked to make these a default sexyfeet replacement but as you finding out also both textures interfear.....reason i never finished them.

But since this isn't a default replacement, is it? You can reposition the belt and/or shoes on the uvmap to a spot were they dont messup the feet and toes.
Then, in bodyshop you do the same with the textures.

I did this already(with and without the slippers) for the cpu and rengal here:

I took a long break from this before trying again and found it impossible to re-map even trying different robe meshes and the same thing. 1headwall
I'm still quite new to this and find it frutrating still ;)
Might try to make a robe mesh for the SBB instead.

I already made a few of those(as i told you earlier) and as far as i remember i either moved the textures(and parts on the uvmap) or gave the outfit a second subset(meshgroup)

You can use that recolor and clone it again with bodyshop.
Then attache your own meshfile to it.

I've never done a subset succesfully before always end up with legs missing lol
Thanks Bloom for the help - going to give this another try :)

You dont have to add another subset in the recolor file, just use the Rengal or rio.
Clone it and attache a new mesh to it.(ez with the pjse tool)
Open my meshfile and look how i splitup the feet and shoes into 2 seperate meshgroups.
Do the same with your mesh and load them in your meshfile.

Did all that and still got texture on the feet I can't get rid of although it's not as much as before.  :confused:
Thanks for all your help Bloom  ;D

Upload it hun, and ill give it a look ;)

Thanks Bloom :)


The mesh is HERE (http://www.mediafire.com/?2mwrwlymybm)

The mesh is perfect!
So the problem lays within the recolor.
That particular recolor does need 2 subsets, one for the body and one for the barefoot.
So that you can recolor both the robe and feet on a diffrent bmp file.
That way the parts of the robe will not interfear with the feet.

You can add a new subset to any existing maxis outfit(recolor) using this tutorial:
http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,51352.0.html (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,51352.0.html)

It is a bit difficult(well, you need to focus a little bit :D)
If this is complete abacadabra, ill pop one out for you.
Or you use one of my files:
http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,75265.0.html (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,75265.0.html)

If you take this outfit
*Clone it with bodyshop
*Open that new recolor with simpe
*attache your mesh to it, or make a new.
*change the subset called flipflops into barefoot(its one of the last lines in the propertyset), click commit and save.
*Clone it again with bodyshop and fix the textures.


EDIT,

OH, i had another look at your mesh and you forgot to delete the sexyfeet on the body!!!
Your will need 2 meshgroups, one for the body(without the feet) and one for the feet.

I followed the tutorial and the textures won't export in Body Shop and the mesh shows up as a Maxis suit.
I tried using your file too.
Maybe this is all to abracadabra to me after all LOL - Thank you so much for all your help with this Bloom it's appreciated :D

pm me your email and ill pop one out for ya ;)

I've sent you a pm but after that I suceeded with two groups for the Maxis Shirt & Trs mesh so I know where I went wrong and had another attempt and suceeded and now have the robe with the feet :D  1rock 3yay ;D

Thank you for all your help with this and I'll test it in game and take some pics :D  2hug

just make sure you also delete the feet still attached to the bodymeshgroup in Milkshape! :)

I've put them for download HERE (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php/topic,106662.msg1554523.html#msg1554523)
