Arethabee - Mia Rings: Compatible with EA & CC Eyelashes simultaneously with Glasses! (Converted UV)

NO MESHES ARE NEEDED


Hello,

This is my conversion of Mia Rings, my first conversion of rings to be compatible (eyelashes with glasses) without conflicts.
I wanted to convert my favourite EA rings and CC rings, but I am willing to take suggestions.

**If the creator is not happy with this upload, I can immediately take it down**, I just wanted to share my CC conversion solutions as many other people have this problem. Enjoy!

Caution/Possible Conflicts:
Unfortunately ALL conflicts are impossible to avoid, however, this fix has the least conflicts.
Only my converted rings work with these rings without conflicts, however, I've mapped wedding rings/engagement rings to the other side of the section.
So you can AT LEAST wear a wedding ring/engagement ring with ONE OTHER ring(or combined rings as shown here). I think this is plenty enough anyways! Otherwise you may experience some texture issues, which you may not even notice.

Explanation:
For a long time, it bugged me that we couldn't use rings and glasses simulatenously with eyelashes! I loved using all accessories at the same time! I looked for solutions but all of them had some sort of conflict. Unfortunately, the eyelash update did not solve the issues with the conflicts
as EA uses mesh to model the eyelashes due to limited texture space, and CC creators use textures in either the Rings or Glasses sections. Sorry if I got the terminology wrong.
So I came to the realisation I cannot fix the eyelashes themselves, but then after research I realised we could move rings into another (mostly) inactive texture section. Here is a tutorial of the process I follow, SurelySims explains it perfectly, and I learnt the method from her, so thank you!

Therefore, resolving the conflict and compatibility issues.
Forgive me for all the wrong terminology, I'm learning. TDLR: I have OCD and wanted eyelashes, glasses and rings at the same time!

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
