Hi, I'm trying to use the RemusSirion Fantasy Skins and it says there's no skin tones in the package file. I know you already replied to this issue but I'm almost certain these are supposed to be skin tones and they're not working. I'm linking one of them below, please let me know if this is something I can do with this tool or if I should find another way. Thanks so much!

The description of those skins says they're found in skin details, so they're not skin tones but overlays. Did you look for them in skin details?

Some people still think that skin tones and skins are the same things but they aren't. Skin tones are colors of skins.

Will a "select multiple" feature be available in the future? Thanks.

If you mean to process multiple packages, no. I think Sims4Studio has a batch fixer.

I tried to do this today (January 18) but I still don't see the skin tones in my game. It's the same for skin tones I tried to update with Sims 4 Studio. I'm not sure what the problem is, since it seems to work for other people. Was there an update to the game since December 7, or am I potentially doing something wrong?

By the way, I'm also super grateful this mod exists at all.

You can only update skin colors applied in the skin color section in CAS, not skins applied as skin details or default replacement skin definitions. Check that you're trying to convert the right type of skin.

Hey all, hopefully my issue is a misunderstanding as have most so far, but I too am unable to convert certain files. I am sure they are not overlays or makeup files. If anyone is familiar with them, I am trying to convert Crazy Mammoth's rainbow skintones (Blue, Red, Yellow, etc.), but for some reason they still do not show up in the game.

Trying to use this for the noodlessorbetremix package and it is just not working.

It seems to think there are only 3 skintones for some reason, but when I open it in sims4studio there are plenty. I can't upload the package files because they're too big

Where does it say there are only 3 skintones? I downloaded and converted Noodles’ Berry Skin Colors, it said there are 64 tones and 64 colors showed up when I tested in game. Maybe that's not the right package since it's quite small - if so, please link to the package you're talking about.

Apologies for not replying faster, work took me out of town for a few weeks. Unfortunately the system is not allowing me to upload, I keep getting "500" errors from the server. If it helps though, I noticed the game is not registering the existence of the package files since they do not show up on the mods list that appears upon game start.

I downloaded and converted one of the Crazy Mammoth skins and it works fine in my game, so without your uploaded original and converted packages I can't help.

Good news then, it seems that the system just needed them in a .zip file to work. The file with a '1' at the end is the converted file. Thank you for your help, and your patience.

Your CrazyMammoth_SkinToneBlue_FIXED1.package shows up fine in my game, in the Neutral panel. If you don't see the same skintone panels either you're not patched up to date or maybe you're using a CAS UI mod.

Good to know it's not a program fault then, thank you again!

Hello! This mod could be very useful if I managed to figure out how it works >.> I tried to convert Msblue's Rainbow Skintone Set, but it says there is no skintones to be converted though I am pretty sure it's not makeup or skin detail but a cas skintone.

The rainbow skintone set is already updated to be compatible and doesn't need conversion.
