Oo Lookey I did it and it worked!!! Ok I was being silly first I made a smiley face and used a Maxi's eye. lol But it really worked. Now I need to figure out how to get it to be just one eye, then I can do lots like fire, a clover, the earth, etc...etc. It's attached if you want to check if I did it rigt. But it shows up in blush and it goes in the eyes. Thank you!! Oh I forgot can you change the swatch on it? So it shows the preview of the eye instead of that squiggly line Maxis made?

I'm very sorry if I put this in the wrong section. I have been working on those dresses all night, but I cannot get Maxis meshes to allow me to alter the alpha. I tried everything, so I don't know what I am doing wrong. I flooded the part I wanted covered in black, then in white. I did the same on the texture map, then I finally gave up. I did not want this bow, and I wanted the center to curve down and go around the lower part of the back, not go straight across. I tried and tried. I did do these..the blue one was first, then I did the green one and got it to look a little better, then I did the red one...I'm uploading the package for all three. The bmp is over 3 megs! and all three packages are only a little over 300K so thats what I'm uploading. I hope this is what you need. I think I need to do a step by step tutorial on how to export a mesh in SimPE so I can put it in Milkshape and try to get what I want in there. But I hope I'm on the right track here, my brain hurts. lol PS Apologies the pictures are not great I compressed them at 15 to keep the kb small. Ok I added one in a lower compression so you can see what it actually looks like.

but you know what? I've still got those default skintones in another folder on my desktop & tomorrow after work I'll put them back in & finger crossed that it'll work!!!
Thank you!
That was my problem default skin replacements, I removed all default replacements, but the skins were my problem. Eyes too, you have to be careful with those eye replacements. Now I have them all re-installed but all I get is these plain blue boxes till I click on each box for the clothing then it changes the clothing, male swimshorts replacements. The skins/eyes I have pet replacements so they don't look like they are squinty are fine, those all showed back up after I updated thumbnails but for some reason the clothing didn't. But, I had to re-install the skins/sim and plantsim to get something besides a floating head. lol Updated: Don't forget to update your thumbnails after you reinstall your default replacements. See here is my problem with the swimsuits even after I updated the thumbnails. Just a blue box but if I click on them they are there and change.

It won't let you do that, you have to use Season's. Celebration is just a stuff pack not an EP. I had this problem but it is because I had installed a default replacement. I also couldn't install the patch till I corrected it. Some default replacements are ok, but others will keep you from installing the patches, as well as cause problems should you remove them. I was having this problem installing the season's patch, then I read on MTS2 that using default replacements can keep the patches from installing at all. So I removed it, which did allow me to install the patch, and the Maxis stuff doesn't just come back. Like in my CAF all I had was a floating head, because once I had removed the defualt to install the patch there was no more. The Maxis default did not automatically come back, and on the preview it was a floating head and not of the Sim I was creating. Then in the CAF actual screen it was the Sim I was making. Now I have the default replacement placed back in the game, but there are no more previews. So now I have three choices since I obviously can't get back the original defaults unless I reinstall the game. Plus updating thumbnails did not fix it after I reinstalled the default replacement. That is to go without previews and just click on each thing till I get what I want, or keep it removed and suffer with just a floating head or lastly uninstall and reinstall so I can get the original defaults back.
