If its not cc, can you let me know where it is in build mode?

Thank you so so much! 😊

Hey! It's not CC, it's a resized grab bar from the Health Clutter and this towel/blanket thingy from Miscellaneous Decor:

You may already know that holding ALT lets you apply wall or floor textures to almost any object in the game, even ones that aren't normally recolourable:

But there's more! ⚠️⚠️⚠️

For whatever reason, these two floor textures make things invisible. By applying them, you can hide parts of all kinds of objects and create some pretty interesting results.

Want to put a plant inside an oversized basket? Fill a bowl with popcorn? Stick toothbrushes in a random mug? Now you can!

As someone who has played the Sims on and off since The Sims was released, I appreciate that the devs are doing this differently.

My very first custom content hairstyle collection for Paralives is finally here!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

This collection includes several feminine hairstyles designed with a semi-realistic style in mind, while still fitting naturally into the world of Paralives.

Each hairstyle comes with 4 different texture pattern variations, so you can easily switch between slightly different hair finishes and looks depending on your character’s style.

♡ Includes:

6 different feminine hairstyles

4 texture pattern variations for each hairstyle

I’ve been learning and experimenting a lot while creating these, and I’m really excited to finally share this first collection with the community.

INFO :

The Curly Bob does not have Hat Compatibility as it is too big to fit in a hat. The other ones are all Hat-compatible !

More CC is already on the way ✨

Do not hesitate to give me feedbacks !

I've been busy the past few days, making a tutorial, more mods and a troubleshooting spreadsheet (That needs formatting, but it exists).

Hey! Here's a very brief tutorial that does not touch upon the texture creation process:

Tutorial: creating your Paralives eye defaults

Create a new mod

Follow this tutorial. Steps briefly:

Start the game

Go to Mods, or CTRL + F2

Click Create New Mod, name it, and start editing it

Find the right entries in Characters -> Equipment

Go to Control panel and find the Equipment editor under the Characters category.

Because this is a default replacement, you're not creating any new lines. Instead, you're replacing linked textures in already existing entries. You're looking for:

EyeIrisGlobe for children and above

ToddlerEyes for babies and toddlers

Though these entries are separate, you can use the same eye textures for both.

You can find the reference textures in this Wiki page, or by browsing files locally. Find your Paralives installation directory, and search for textures and masks under Species -> Human -> BodyParts (my path: ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Paralives\Main.mod\Species\Human\BodyParts).

Create and link your textures

Note that even though you're working with default replacements, you should still add your textures to your mod's working folder. You can find it by clicking the folder icon next to your mod's name. You can read more about texture formats here.

Once you've added your textures, you may need to disable and enable your mod to trigger the game to import the texture.

Next, you want to replace the textures in both EyeIrisGlobe and ToddlerEyes. You're looking for these entries in your Equipment editor under Visual -> Textures -> HumanEyeLeft and HumanEyeRight under EyeIrisGlobe, or HumanToddlerEyeLeft and HumanToddlerEyeLeft under ToddlerEyes:

Texture GUID -> this is your grayscale texture. Replace this.

Mask texture GUID -> this is your mask with color channels. Replace this with your 3-color mask texture.

Remember to repeat this step for both EyeIrisGlobe and ToddlerEyes, unless you want different defaults for these age groups.

You can test whether the replacement works directly in the Paramaker, even as you edit the mod. Randomising the Para or clicking on the eyes should refresh the textures. However, if you're updating your texture files, you will need to trigger the file import by disabling and enabling the mod.
