The shine defaults and the bodies are working fine - I've tested them in my own game. I haven't tested the faces, but I'm using other default faces that should be pretty much the same as far as working-ness, and no problems. The new sliders work fine, the skins look fine, all is well.

I"ve noticed that occasionally the muscle definition doesn't show when tinkering with the sliders. It seems really random and these are the only default skintones I use as they're the best. I do have several selections of non defaults but they're FX skins, like for the simbot.

Is this just something with the game, or am I hallucinating?

coldheartzero - Something wrong on your end, I think. Defaults work fine with the muscle sliders with no needed updates. I'm using them myself and they're fine.

More information, I've been able to duplicate the muscle definition issue so that it's not random anymore.

So I make a new sim, crank the defintion all the way up, swap over the clothes to make a new outfit and the definition vanishes every time. I can swap back and sometimes the definition will work again, most times not.

HOWEVER!!

With the latest patch, it works every time. No more wonkiness.

Thanks for your time and efforts, it's appreciated.

SirRyanSecrest - Goes in Mods\Packages just like any .package file, delete your cache files (world caches too if you're not on a Mac) and it should work fine.

adamiszyn - They're not in clothing, and you don't have to put them on. Make sure you've installed them properly and deleted cache files, and they'll just appear automatically on all your sims.

?? No, don't do that. Just delete the files with "cache" in the name, and the contents of the WorldCaches folder (only if you're on a PC).

It's under My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\ - I mean all the cache files in that folder, as well as the contents of the WorldCaches folder under it.

You definitely have that folder. You're probably just looking in the wrong place. Make sure you're looking under My Documents, NOT Program Files. You'll see folders like "DCBackup" and "InstalledWorlds" and "Saves" and "Screenshots" and "SigCache" in there - not "Game" or "GameData"

World Caches folder will only generate if you are playing Riverview, a vacation world, Barnacle Bay or a custom world.

Then once you've deleted the other cache files, it should be working fine. It may not be -super- obvious as the changes are not drastic ones.

No, don't delete any folders, just the four files with the word "cache" in the name. If you've done all that, and installed the files right, it should be working for you, and I have no idea why it wouldn't be.

I used skininator and made all packages into one and that made it work for me. I have windows 7 and 64 bit. Deleted the caches. Before doing this i could only get the shine to show up on adult females. Thanks for this great skin!!! :D
