Hi ! I'm new to this program and maybe you could help me. I'm trying to export one of my male sims but his skin overlay isn't showing up. What's strange is that my female sim with the same overlay shows up correctly. Do you know how I could fix it ? Idk if it could help but my female sim has an extra gray skin png when I export her textures. I tested it on an other male sim and same thing, no skin overlay.
(Here are the two sims I'm talking about. The skin overlay is Rosewater by lamatisse. You can see the skin overlay well under the eyes with the dark circles on the female sim.)

Here are the save game and the sim troubleshooting info. I also forgot to tell you that even without skin details, my sim should look different. I have a default skin in my game but in sim ripper, his skin just looks flat and without any lip color. It doesn't looks like EA skin texture either. And he doesn't seem to have the blush I applied in my game and other skin details except his freckles located in the skin details section. I'm sharing to you the texture image of my two sims so maybe you can figure it out.

Hello,
I downloaded the new version and at first, I couldn't save my sims dae. I found my anti-virus software was blocking it so I fixed that. However, now the problem is I still can't get Ripper to save. I have tried for a week to get the dae to save. Everytime I tried I get to the save part and then let it sit. Because I have a lot of CC I let it run while I do other things. I have let it sit overnight and still it won't save. I tried taking out all my cc and then only loading the cc for the sim I need to save and that didn't work either. I haven't had this problem before. I am not entire sure how to fix it.

Thanks! There are a lot of overlays so this may take a little while. Btw, according to the sim information he's using a MsBlue_SkintoneSetV3 skin, not the skin you linked to.

Oh, yes, that's a custom skintone set. Here's the link if you need it : https://www.thesimsresource.com/dow...-v3/id/1346781/

Default Request for older version
Hey!! The new sim ripper takes away my sims overlay that I need so I was hoping if you could send me an older version please???? preferably the 3.7.5 version or 3.6.2 version. I deleted them after I downloaded the 3.8 not knowing it would take that away.

I'd rather fix the problem so everyone benefits and you can use newer versions. Please upload your save game and sim troubleshooting info, and a picture of what the sim looks like in CAS.

Thanks! That's not her skin color in CAS, is it?? No version of SimRipper is showing it that red and none of the overlays that I tested make it red.

Here's your sim in SimRipper V3.6.2 and V3.8.1. Sorry, but they look identical to me except the change in projection methods and I'm not seeing the problem.

Version 3.8.2 is uploaded with a fix for the skin details layering problem.

Thanks for YOUR patience! I really tried to make the overlay effect look more like how it looks in CAS, but couldn't get any improvement. I don't know how EA does its skin and overlay blending so I have to guess and experiment and it's far from perfect. Sorry.

Sadly, the newer version doesn't work for me either. Do you have an older version that could maybe work for me ? I also realised that the overlay sometimes works on other males sims and I don't really know why, they have the same overlays and nothing else. And also that sometimes the diffuse texture have some "jpeg artefacts" on the face when it works.
Other things for the townies without cc (but the default skin) : Elders don't have any wrinkles.
Thanks again for your time

Sure, here's V3.6.2. I do see a difference in the coloring and how the makeup shows up. I've tried the three different ways the overlay layers could be sorted and none of them seem to work for everyone, so at this point I give up. I'm just going to put an option in there for users to pick how they want the layers sorted and they can use the setting that works for them.

Edit: Changing the sort order doesn't change the slight color difference - I must have changed something in the skin blending. Back to the drawing board. *sigh*

I don't know if it's just my computer, but when I try to open the updated version of ripper, it says that it can't open because there is a virus. I also can't use the older version because when I try to open it, nothing pops up... pls help (

Your antivirus is blocking it. Antivirus products often block programs like SimRipper that they don't recognize. You'll have to add SimRipper as an exception in your antivirus.

Hello,
Does anyone know how I can fix this problem? Some of my sims get this red thing blocking the teeth when they use poses with opened lips in blender, they also have this black dot on the corners of their mouth.

That's interesting - maybe CC teeth?
