    Great program I'm having amazing fun with. The version I have automatically loads the packages from the Sims 4 game instead of manually having to search for it. Downloaded this version and that function isn't present. I prefer it as I can't find the right package :/ lol

    Edit: I found the package (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4\Data\Client\ClientFullBuild0.package) but unlike the other version I have on my desktop - this isn't showing any of the thumbnails up...

    I had a few minutes so I thought I'd go in and check on what you had done... I see this new version isn't like the one you started with. Is it the only tool I'll need to recolor or will I need other things too? Maybe I should wait until it goes back to the orig. version, as far as making it easy to load the pkgs. :)

    "
    The CAS Demo and the full TS4 game are using different identifiers internally for many of the clothing items.

    This means that you can’t move a recolor from the CAS Demo into the full game without having all kinds of corruption.

    The simplest fix is to use Color Magic 0.5.0 or later and re-create the recolor packages for each of your recolors, and then re-import the changed texture files.

    1. Download ColorMagic
    Unzip it in a folder anywhere on your hard drive.

    2. Ditto with S4PE, which you can find here: https://github.com/Sims4Group/Sims4Tools/releases

    3. Start the application by double-clicking ColorMagic.exe. Click Next.

    4. You’ll see the Setup page:
    [​IMG]

    You only need to fill in the information on this page once.

    - Click the Select Package button, and navigate to CASDemoFullBuild.package… probably in C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4 Create A Sim Demo\Data\Client.

    - Type in your “Creator Identity”. This will be prefixed to your package names, and used as part of the unique ID generated for each package. Using a unique Creator Identity will prevent your CC from conflicting with CC by other creators.

    5. Click Next.

    6. You’ll see the Item Selection screen:

    [​IMG]

    - This screen has some filters and a search field to help you find the item you’re looking for. Pick a category from the dropdown and click Filter, and/or type some characters in the Search field.

    - Select an item from the list. You’ll see some information about the item you’ve selected, including its texture, its swatch and swatch type, and some more technical info about the CASP resource. (Color and other filter info is still being worked on.)

    7. Click Next. You’re at the final screen.
    [​IMG]
    - Your item will be given a default name, which you can edit; this will be the name of the generated package AND used as the unique identifier for your item in-game, so make sure it’s something unique.

    - Color Code does not currently do anything for most items, but if you’re making hair you can choose a hair color. (Functionality is in progress.)

    - In Color Swatch, you can choose up to 3 colors for the color swatch that will show in-game for your item. If the item has a custom swatch, you can edit it in S4PE after the package is created (currently you can’t set a swatch from this dialog).

    When you’re done, click Finish. Color Magic will create your package!

    If you're having the problem where you can't select anything, or it doesn't have the base game in the dropdown, or you can't click next, it's because you've manually selected the clientfullbuildpackage0 thingy. This is wrong. Manually select the resource.cfg file in the same folder (you'll need to change the "file type" in the dialog box bottom right) and it'll work fine.

    Hi, I'm trying to create additionnal Hair recolors but the "non default" option isn't working. When I check default replacement, it works perfectly and shows in the game, but when I don't, the game will show an additional color thumbnail (dark Brown for instance), but both of them will still load the default color.
    Any ideas? Thank you

    Uh, I read everything that was in this thread, but I'm still scared to download the Color Magic because I still have no idea what I'd be doing. My brain hurts just thinking about it... wah...

    Make sure you click the "add" button on the swatch page of colormagic. When you click it, it'll pop up a wee rainbow icon with CM on it, this will be the in-game swatch for your new thing. When you go into CAS, click the swatches & look for your rainbow CM swatch, that'll be your new thing.
