👽 TOU

I don't use nor support the use of AI in any shape or form. All my screenshots & cc previews are edited manually, by me, in Photoshop.

Got a question? Read this first:

Can you make a fem frame version of this cc? No. If something I've posted doesn't already come with a fem frame version, there won't be one at all. I don't create nor play female sims, ever. There is an abundance of cc made for them that you can use instead, I really don't care. Can you make a version of this cc without this or that? No. If I created & posted something a certain way then that's how I like it & how it will remain. Everyone is free to edit cc for personal use to suit their own needs. Can you make a version of this cc placed different? No. If there isn't one already, then I had no need for it. You'll find that most of my cc comes with multiple versions already, if you need something different you're free to do it yourself. Will you share your personal cc? No. I share my personal cc only with my friends, no exceptions. Do you take commissions? No. Making cc is my hobby & it makes me happy that way. Do you accept suggestions? Yes. Whether I'll make your suggestion a reality or not depends entirely on if I like it & will have a use for it myself.

What is your screenshot editing proccess?

I take my screenshots using SRWE without Reshade/Gshade. All edges are smoothed & refined using the liquify tool in Photoshop. 3D details like pockets, gloves, straps & shirt collars or sleeves are also sculpted this way. This part of the proccess usually takes the longest.

I always use this Alpha to Maxis PS action at around 50-70% opacity. I never use it on the whole image, instead I manually paint the areas I want to be smoother with a soft round brush at 25-30% flow using a mask.

Shadows are sometimes painted manually for things like necklaces etc when Im not feeling lazy.

Glowing elements are gradually built up using a combination of soft light, hard light & vivid light at varying opacities.

Lastly I adjust the contrast & use a vivid light sharpening method to sharpen the image.

first of all just wanted to say i love your cc! it’s perfect^^ i was curious if you’d do glows and accs for your ritual tails too?

Thank you ❤️

Yeah, I will! I also want to make some changes to the ritual tails, mostly just make them a bit thicker at the bottom & gradient like the rest

It's my next priority after a personal project I'm working on for a friend & a set I've had in my wips for awhile

Batch Edit CAS Display Index w/ S4S v3.2.0.8 (Star) and newer

I was looking around S4S full changelog until my eyes caught something interesting 👀

+ Added a batch edit menu to folders in My CC + Added a batch edit option to set the CAS Display Index of all packages in a folder. 🆕 + Added another batch edit option to My CC Folder menu - "Change Display Index (sorted by package name)"...

Previously, the only way you can group CC creators together is if you edit their CAS display index per packages in S4CASTools. Now, with the new S4S update, you can do so with the batch edit feature in one go!

🆕 With the S4S v3.2.1.3 update, there's now an option to change all CCs in a folder to your assigned display index number, sorted by package name. If you're looking to sort your CCs alphabetically, now you can! More details later.

⚠️ Do note that for every batch fix you do, it will create a backup folder with all the unedited files stored in \Documents\Sims 4 Studio\Batch Fixes, which can bloat your storage quickly. Do your batch fix in small batches, regularly check in-game if it works correctly, and continue. You might need to delete the backup files in the Batch Fixes folder if you’re no longer using the unedited files.

Process below:

01. Have the most recent Sims 4 Studio (Star) installed.

02. Separate files into folders based on creators. Here I have Gorillax3 & clumsyalien's ccs into their own respective folders:

Whatever packages you put in a folder will all obtain the same CAS display index value. So if you want to have specific style of CCs sorted together, put them all in the same folder. It's also recommended that you rename the folders to include the CAS display index value you plan to assign, so that it's easy to do batch edit again when new CCs are added into that folder.

03. Go into My CC, right click a folder, and it will show you the option to batch edit CAS Display Index & another one to sort by package name.

If you choose the first option: all packages in that folder will be assigned the same display index value. Example: packageA to packageD will all be assigned 70 as its CAS display index. If you choose the 2nd option (Sorted by package name): each package will be given the display index value you assigned + decimals so that it will be sorted alphabetically. Example: packageA is assigned with 70 - packageB: 70,001 - packageC: 70,002 - and so on. If you're looking to sort your CCs alphabetically or by release date (e.g. QRsims's / Rusty's CCs), the 2nd option will be best for you :)

extra info to keep in mind: it seems that if you number your creations, it will be sorted by how they're sorted in the My CC list, and not from the explorer itself. So N6 will be given a higher display index than N21.

04. Once you've clicked the option, it will ask you which folder you're doing the batch fix on & the backup folder, and ask you what value you'd like for all packages in that folder. I set clumsyalien's folder to 70 and gorillax3's to 75.

There's no restriction on what value you choose. All that matters is that CAS CCs with lower CAS display index value will show up higher in the catalog than CCs with higher CAS display index value.

05. Click OK and it will tell you which files has been edited. Once you've successfully edited your files, you'll get a nicely sorted CAS CCs to browse :) Results are below:

Enjoy and happy sorting! :D
