Hi, I can't seem to find the answer to my question ANYWHERE - if I may have missed it, could someone please direct me?
To keep things simple, I'm going to say I want to convert custom makeup (with permission) from the Sims 3 to Sims 4. How do I go about this? I have seen tons of tutorials on how to convert a mesh object and its textures, but nothing about texture items specifically. Does makeup in the Sims 4 need a mesh map? Just a specular map? I am a total noob at creating custom content, but I am not interested in using mesh programs as I do not want to make a mesh item. Do I still need to use Blender in order to properly convert sims 3 makeup to Sims 4? More simply...if I wanted to take an EA TS3 eye shadow and put it in TS4, is this the same process? I know EA items in TS3 are greyscale, and I would have to create swatches for sims 4 - I've already experimented with hair recolors...so I'm mostly looking to find out how to apply a texture to a new package to essentially convert/clone the item from TS3 to TS4. I suppose I will need to have something in mind I want to convert, but at this time, this is all hypothetical as I am just getting started. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
