Default Custom Costume Makeup Help
Hey everyone! Firstly, I wanna wish everyone a very happy new year!

Recently, I've tried converting the clown makeup from The Sims 2 Freetime to The Sims 3 by creating a non-recolorable costume makeup CC. The only issue I'm having is that the "white parts" from the makeup don't show up in game as intended. I tried changing the white color to a slightly darker tint, but to no avail. Below is a photo that shows how it looks in CAS:



I also attached the package file which includes the textures. Hopefully, somebody could help me figure the issue out. Thank you!

Looks like a limitation of CTU's lightweight package, part of the original makeup is interfering.

Try using S3OC to clone the makeup instead, with 'Deep Clone' and 'Renumber' ticked.
Then right-click > Replace the textures in that .package with S3PE - because you don't need it to be recolorable, you can use a tiny red square for the mask texture (the one that is usually black + RGB).
It looked correct when I tested it this way Best of luck.
