BIG CC UPDATE DEC 2023 (RENT PATCH)
✅ PRESETS CHANGELOG
fixed broken presets after the "rent" patch (from child to elders);
I fixed the broken presets only for the child-elders ages. But, as you know, all the presets for the toddlers were broken too because EA added eyelashes to them. I don't have presets specially made for toddlers, but some presets made for other ages used to be displayed in this age category, I removed them from this category because they don't fit this age category anyway. I left only the ears in this category. I will fix these ears for the category of toddlers as soon as it possible (and if possible).
added compatibility with some type of custom clothes cc to FEMALE HEAD SHAPE PRESETS N1-8 (the problem of holes in the neck);
3 new files have been added (CHILD EYES PRESETS N1-2 FOR FEMALES TEEN-ELDERS, NOSE PRESET F N28-33 FOR FOR CHILDREN and NOSE PRESETS F N18-27 FOR CHILDREN).
DOWNLOAD UPDATED PRESETS
Please note that this archive does not contain all my presets, since not all presets required updating.
✅ SKINS and FACE MASKS CHANGELOG
added new additional cleaner and smoother texture options to some old skins and face mask overlays:
- SKIN N4, SKIN N7, SKIN N8, SKIN N9, SKIN N10 (A and B), SKIN N11, SKIN N12, CHILD SKIN N1, SKIN FOR TODDLERS AND INFANTS N1-2 OVERLAYS;
- MICHAEL, NOAH and JAESUNG face mask overlays;
I see that many of you are still using my old skins, so I decided to update them a bit.
I changed mostly the faces. Some overlay skins have undergone very strong changes and now, I think, they look much better. Don't worry, the old options are still there and they won't be reset from your sims.
the old skins are now available for the "opposite frame", this is necessary if you want to make a gender transition for your character ;
SWEET СARTOONNY SKINBLEND A and B was fixed for a new patch (for the correct display of the added EA eyelashes);
added a non-hq version for old skins;
added compatibility of old skins and face masks with my new cc;
added new thumbnails to all skins just because I wanted everything to look the same style and I'm tired of these black and white pictures of old overlays.
DOWNLOAD UPDATED SKIN OVERLAYS: BASE GAME | HQ
DOWNLOAD UPDATED ALPHA COLOR SKINS: BASE GAME | HQ
Please note that if you do not use the HQ mod in your game, then you need to download the "BASE GAME" version. The HQ version looks better only if you use the HQ mod, otherwise it's just a waste of space on your computer. In the case of skins, this is a very big difference. For example: 1,67 GB of my base game alpha skins VS 6,47 GB of my HQ alpha skins.
✅ SKIN TONES CHANGELOG
Fixed an issue with completely black newborns with SOFT ROSE SKIN TONES;
Unfortunately, to solve this problem, I had to recreate the file for SOFT ROSE SKIN TONES. So when you download the updated version, this cc will be reset from your sims. This applies only to SOFT ROSE SKIN TONES and HETEROCHROMIA EYES. The rest of the files listed in this post will not be reset from your sims.
Added a tanning and burn functions to all my skin tones.

✅ HETEROCHROMIA EYES
fixed after the patch (the problem with the hand).
Unfortunately, to solve this problem, I had to recreate the file for HETEROCHROMIA EYES. So when you download the updated version, this cc will be reset from your sims. This applies only to SOFT ROSE SKIN TONES and HETEROCHROMIA EYES. The rest of the files listed in this post will not be reset from your sims.
No more need to choose HETEROCHROMIA EYES for each type of clothing. A new category has been added in the "body scars" section.
This is the only category that is not heavily packed, in which two "eyes" can be placed at once. I did not use the "eye details" category, because only one cc can be selected in it, when two slots are needed at once to use HETEROCHROMIA EYES.
DOWNLOAD UPDATED HETEROCHROMIA EYES
✅ INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
delete previous versions of files from your mods folder;
put new versions of files in your mods folder;
The presets, skin tones and heterochromia eyes can simply be replaced, as I have not changed their names. But the skins will have to be removed manually, since some of them have changed their names due to the fact that now all have hq and non-hq versions.
if you have had my skins installed before: in order for new thumbnails to be displayed in your game, you need to delete the "localthumbcache.package" file from "C:\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4" (this is the folder where your mod folder is located), or you can do it through the sims studio;
if the new СС did not appear, it means that somewhere in the mods folder there is an old version of the file.
❌ DO NOT: re-upload my CC, claim my CC as your own, use as a base/part for your CC!
✅ In my game I use BETTER IN-GAME LIGHTING MOD v1.1 and GENTLE CAS LIGHTING MOD!
All the files in all the posts have also been updated. There are really a lot of updates this time. I hope you all are not tired of this, ha-ha.
By the way, I'm going to start working on BETTER IN-GAME LIGHTING MOD v2. So you can write your wishes and suggestions!
Thank you all for supporting the development process! 💘
UPD No more need to choose HETEROCHROMIA EYES for each type of clothing. Please read the main description to find the location.

Did you ever get around to updating the ears for toddlers?
Hi NSW! I hope you're doing well. :) I love your CC! Unfortunately, for some reason, the tan/sunburn feature isn't working for me with your skintones. The texture simply doesn't show up, even though it works with Maxis skintones. I see here, though, that they’ve been updated to support this. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Does anyone else here have a similar problem?
i cant download the file :(
Would it be possible to make a skin pack for all ages and genders and as skin tones not skin details so it's next to Ea's skin or even one with both default and non default but for everyone? I find it too much to download many skin tones for certain ages or genders when it makes sense for them to be all in one.
will these skins receive an update again?
Hi ! Would it be possible to put the kids presets in ear category as they are broken since the last pack ? Presets and sliders for children can’t be saved when we leave the cas. Thank you so much ! https://forums.ea.com/discussions/the-sims-4-mods-and-custom-content-en/child-sliders-wont-save-need-help/12009169
Hiii i don't know if i'm the only one having that problem but i dowloaded your skintones from here and my sims got black babies again with all your skintones even journey i had to take them out to fix my babies i tried to delete the files from this post and take the ones on curseforge and still the same problem could you check it out please thank you love your work can't play without your work in my game <3
I was have issue with the skintone soft rose some sims in my gallery downloadable sims have black skintone.
same
Your mods are so awesome! Thank you for working so hard and sharing it with everyone!
Hi! I am having an issue with the BLUEBERRY SKIN TONES. An adopted baby was born pitch black and after much testing I narrowed it down to this file. I redownloaded all your skin tones from this post to be safe. I even tested with only this file in my game, and it causes this newborn to be pitch black. It does fix itself if I age up the newborn, but I wanted to let you know...
Hi! I will look into this issue. It may have broken down again with some of the new updates which were after December 2023.
I’m very new to see and haven’t downloaded any of your cc yet. So for example do I just use this post to download skin n8 instead of going to the original post for skin n8?
Hi! Yes, you can download both here and in the original post (all skin files in the posts are also updated). But please note that there will be no new skins in this collection.
Hi ! I just saw the update, if I update the skins, i'm not sure if I understood, only the Soft rose skin & the eyes will reset for the sims that have those cc ? The rest will be fine ? (I've been doing makeovers of my townies and used most of your skin so just to make sure..) Thanks for the answer !
Hi! This applies only to SOFT ROSE SKIN TONES and HETEROCHROMIA EYES (not SOFT ROSE SKIN A and B).
I am pretty new to this, but have already used and loved the overlays I have downloaded from you before. I am curious though, I don't know what alpha color skins are. What are they vs. the overlays? If anyone can tell me, I would appreciate it so much! :)
Hi! Alpha skins are skins that have their own color. Overlays are skins that use skin colors that are in the palette of skin colors. I hope I explained it clearly!
Thank you for these! <3
You're welcome! Have a good game! ❤️
i love you
Love you too!
do you have a default skin replacement? your skins are the best.
Hi! Thank you! Not yet, but in the future I'm going to make it.
Hello! I use your skins and presets a lot for my sims and am curently preparing for a sim dump to offer to my followers. Your TOU says to not re-upload your cc, I wanted to ask if it's okay for me to link your skin in the post for sims so that my followers can get it directly from you or is using your skins at all in a sims dump against your TOU? My apologies if this question is confusing
Hello! If you give a link to the my original post with CC, and do not add the CC to the archive with a sim dump, then everything is fine! Thank you for your question and respect for my work! ❤️
Thanks a lot for the update, most of the presets from other creators are broken (Obscurus, Euno, Arenetta and many more) do you think there's a solution to fix them by myself ? With software perhaps? It's really annoying because none of the presets except yours have been updated.
Hi! Maintaining the correct operation of all my mods and cc is a priority for me! (.❛ ᴗ ❛.) Unfortunately, at the moment there is no general fix and you need to fix each broken preset manually. You won't be able to fix it without having general knowledge about it.
do any of these presets work for aliens by chance?
They work for the human form of the aliens, but do not work for the alien form. I haven't figured out how to do this yet, because I have enabled the ability to use presets for all supernatural characters, but it whatever doesn't work for the alien form.
thank you sow much
I'm happy to make your game a little better! ❤️
Do I need to download this for the full body mods to work? And if so which updates should I download? Thank you!
Hi! What do you mean by "full body mods"?
thank you!! i love your work honestly, you're so talented!!!
Thank you for your kind words! ❤️
how do i put it in my game
Hi! You need to put this in your mods folder, which is located in the documents. The rest of the nuances of the installation are written in the instructions!
Thank you so much! I love your skins!!! (i only use yours lol)
I am very glad that you like my skins! I'm working on new ones right now, ha-ha.
You are one of the best out there! Thank you so much for the update. ❤️
Thank you! The kind feedback from all of you motivates me to try harder and better! 🥺❤️
Thank you
❤️❤️❤️!
This is why I am so loyal to you. thank you very much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! I'm glad you like this update ❤️.
hi lovey! should I download this even though I haven't purchased the rent pack yet?
Hi ❤️ ! If you have updated the game (even without having a new rent pack), then you need to download it. If you have not updated the game, then you can download everything except SOFT ROSE SKIN TONES and HETEROCHROMIA EYES (it will not work for you, since it is intended only for the new version of the game).
Thank you so much! <33
😊❤️!
bless you !
