new year, new refreshes!

we strive to deliver the best as can be, but we figured it could be even better :) from 1/6 to 2/5, every tuesday we will be updating old cc previews and every thursday we will be dropping a set of old cc we gave a "refresh" to! (last week will be just previews) this will include updating textures, new thumbnails, fixing issues we didn't know how to fix before, and lowering poly count!

so next week on 1/6 will be a simple cc PREVIEW refresh, then on 1/8 we will have the first set of cc refresh. all posts across here, patreon, and gumroad will be updated to all the new material!

we hope you enjoy the new refreshes and happy belated holidays <3

how it feels to be a cc creator who lives only in cas and goes in game for five seconds to test said cc when the entire game is broken

thank you for all the donations!

in the one week of campaigning, we were able to raise roughly $170 thanks to very kind simmers <3 we are currently working on these projects and eventually release them as a free collection! more updates will be given once we're closer to finishing them all and everything :3

we're so glad we were able to raise even one dollar! of course, just because the campaign is over, does not mean that donating is no longer needed. if you weren't able to donate in time, you can still use these links https://gazafunds.com/, esims for gaza, friends of congo, and save the children.

again, free palestine and free congo til it's backwards!

auto height heel process video | nsves

Get more from nsves on Patreon

awhile ago I said I'd make a process video of doing @1-800-cuupid 's height heel tutorial that is more streamlined and point out some other details! I broke it down into 5 steps, but this is honestly just for those who need to see it all done in one video and such.

prepping:

before we start, you need to have your package file set and have your shoes imported already into it. have that saved and ready to go for the next step!

step 1: blender file

add a plane → make sure all numbers in the right side of the window is 0 → set cut to 0001 (or whatever cut that's after all your mesh pieces) → add a uv map and name it "uv_0" → SAVE

step 2: opening package file

import the new mesh → find the LOD0 GEOM → duplicate → change end value in group to something else (I usually go with "1") → SAVE → note down group, instance, and type values

step 3: region map & type

go to entries → edit items → new layer ("1" or the number cut you're using)

go to region type → edit items → new entry → enter group/instance/type values from earlier

step 4: cas part (your one swatch)

lods → level 0 → lod models → edit items → new entry → enter group/instance/type values from earlier

step 5: slot rays (where you adjust the height)

duplicated geom → data → slotray inter → edit items → offset → y-value noted earlier from blender → slothash: FEAE6981 → SAVE

** YOUR Y-VALUE NEEDS TO STAY POSITIVE. the number is how high up the sim will be placed above ground. your noted value might not be exactly right, but most heels stay in the range of 0.03 to 0.09. you can adjust the number and save the package without having to redo any of the previous steps.

reimport your mesh with the plane and you can now load it in game with the adjusted height!
