Custom Sim question
« on: August 07, 2015, 06:47:02 PM »
OK, so...

I downloaded off the Sims3 exchange a custom Sim, in this case, Elsa of Arendelle {Found a proper looking one that actually worked right for once!} My only question now is, how do I get her cape ring ? It shows up in my downloaded/installed content list on the game launcher, but I cant find the ring in the list of accessories. Do I actually need the tropical grass skirt for the ring to work or am I doing something wrong/looking in the wrong place ? The character works fine without the cape, but I want to add it to the game and I'm unsure of how to do so

Would you be willing to share the link with me so I can if the cape will show up in my game? CC can be strange sometimes.

Sure! let me grab it

Here it is http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8701237

I am going to assume that it requires an expansion I do not possess yet ? {Supernatural & Seasons} So far the character works perfectly {I recolored her dress twice now, a nice sparkling red, and sparkling green}

I kept the tropical skirt installed,and the cape still seemed to not show up for me either. I also have Supernatural and Seasons so I know that isn't the issue.  :) I will try my best to research about hidden cc and how to enable it. Also, what type of computer do you have? Is it a mac or  a pc by chance?

OK, if its a mesh, how to do I unhide it or find ? Do I need a mod or the like to put it into to work ?

I don't think you can, unless you contact the creator and make them aware of the issue.

Its odd, the character works just fine, but in the video of the file the cape is present


EDIT: OK, I did some looking, turns out I think I need World Adventures, the ring that is to activate the cape is from that expansion pack apparently. Otherwise the character works perfectly fine

Okay, glad you figured it out. :)

I still can't figure out the patterns, but, either way the character works as hoped for. Which honestly is good enough for me at this time. {thankfully my laptop will play everything up to and including Supernatural {YAY!}}


Thank you mpart for all your help!

I'm happy for you. :) Thank you, though without Mrs.Flynn directing me to this thread I wouldn't of have been able to help(somewhat). Though I recommend no custom worlds on laptops, they have made my game files go corrupt in the past. :(
