Hi, I'm searching for the program called "cpackededitor" by christianlov

christianlov no longer supports this program and so has taken it down on all threads, including his blog, which he himself says: [IMPORTANT NOTICE]
Because I stopped writing my editor program years ago and I can't support that program any more, I decided to stop distributing my program and closed 'My Program' category. Sorry for that. on his blog here http://blog.daum.net/christianlov/5187238

It must have been recent because I've searched everywhere, including this one Russian file hosting site...at least I think it was, but said the file was unavailable. There is another related WCIF thread about a month ago here http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=451288 But that's about the hack with skins already attached, what I want is the program that allows you to write custom skins in christianlov's Skintone Changer, which can still be downloaded on MTS2 site. I'm not sure about the TOU on the program itself though he does say redistribute without permission, I'll assume that because you cannot contact him via pm or e-mail. Hopefully someone will be able to host the program since I want it so I can easily test out some skins I've been creating...

Thanks.

I think I have what you are searching for.... the read me is as follows:

I was looking for this too! Thanks a million, rhondalatte! =D

Much, much thanks, Rhond. I've been really needing this for quite a while, lol.

Thanks again for your time..! ;P

Thankies for the link Rhondalatte! :3

Dear Rhondalatte:
This is my first reply to a thread. This is what I'm looking for, I recently had to reimage my computer and I lost this program. Is there anyway that you could send it to me because I don't have a clue as to how to create one ( It took me a week to figure out the cpack editor worded!) I would be 4ever in your debt and I would dance at youe wedding :D

TaurusBulba, surely there's no need to quote that entire post by rhondalatte?

The file is no longer available on Mediafire. Could you reupload it?

I know this thread is pretty old, but it's the only one with any info on how to make christianlov's skintone editor to work with custom skins. The mediafire link is broken, does anyone have a new upload?

I uploaded it for you here http://www.mediafire.com/?aupatnpsqez5a9t . The read me that's included is not very extensive. The best info I found was in post 36 here http://www.modthesims.info/download...5#startcomments . If you follow that post it is quite simple to use. Good luck!

-------------------------------I would LOVE this file also... I have the custom skintone selector but need the editor to use the custom skins in it... Could You help me with a link for it? Thank You MUCH. :-)

............just mssgd you for the editor.... and saw this post with link after it. Thank You for posting. (y)

I never thought I'd come searching for this answer 5 years later, only to realize I had asked it 5 years ago and had been answered so promptly! @Mookieblaylock it's never too late to say think you, so thank you!!
