Title: Reverting (missing) custom eyes to Maxis defaults Post by: Silver Arrows on August 14, 2013, 09:22:49 am Hi! Can anyone help me with this? After clearing out some CC I thought I didn't use, I've found a few of my sims have lost their eyes and are using whatever eye is on the skintone (which for me is the ugly maxis original eyes).
I have some pretty default replacements, so using MsBarrows's tutorial, I changed the sim's settings to the GUID of the default brown eye replacement (96985f8c-4eb3-3d6d-86fa-89977b8eb35a) but my sim is still showing the ugly maxis original eye. Since I have nice defaults now, I want him to use them. (I do remember using this to change to custom eyes in the past and it did work.) I read the following here: http://thesims2.livejournal.com/972157.html?nojs=1 Quote Note: if you have a sim in your game that has custom eyes, and you for some reason delete these custom eyes, the sim will default back to the *original* Maxis eyecolor, even if you have default replacements installed. I don't think there's any way to override this, but if you ever end up in such a situation, what you *can* do is use contact lenses to make them look prettier. Is that true? Or is there another number I need to use for the GUID to revert back to Maxis defaults? ETA: I found this Quote 32dee745-b6ce-419f-9e86-ae93802d2682 Brown (Dominant) I'll give that a go and see if it works.2d6839c5-0b7c-48a1-9c55-4bd9cc873b0f Dark Blue (Dominant) e43f3360-3a08-4755-8b83-a0d37a6c424b Light Blue (Recessive) 0758508c-7111-40f9-b33b-706464626ac9 Grey Blue (Recessive) 51c4a750-c9f4-4cfe-801c-898efc360cb7 Green (Recessive) ETA again: After rummaging through the old PC I've found and restored the custom eye file. Also, using the Maxis GUIDs above on sims with missing eyes does work with MsBarrows's technique. I'll keep the default guids up in case anyone else finds them useful (or mods, just delete the thread. I don't mind.) |
