Important note about batch fixes: The new versions contain new and updated batch fixes. These have been tested, but it isn't possible to test them on every CC item that's been created. Please remember to check your batch fixed items in the game and only delete the batch fix backup file once you're confident the batch fix worked as intended. If you identify problems with batch fixed items, you can restore the original items using the backup. If you notice problems with a batch fix please let us know so the issue can be addressed.

As always, thank you to everyone who has made suggestions for new features and/or reported bugs. Your contributions are vital to Studio's ongoing improvement!

Studio Hotfix for infant rig (Star & Aurora) & Pose Player update

Hi all, Studio has been updated so that garments made for infants will no longer cause the infant to have broken appearing arms in the game. Autogenerated thumbnails for these garments will now look right as well. To fix a garment, just open the affected .package in Studio and reimport the mesh.  If the item has a previously broken thumbnail, clear your thumbnail cache and view the fixed garment in CAS.

Studio updates with new beta versions (Windows & Mac)

Hi all, today Studio updates with new beta versions for Windows (Star) and Mac (Aurora). Wishes and Apple Blossom will be retained as Community Tested versions, but no new features will be added to them going forward.

Star (Windows) includes a new color palette feature that allows you to customize your Studio’s palette & the ability to clone/recolor platforms. This version is able to work with the latest Blender (3.3), it is 64-bit, and it has a tuning editor for CAS and object tuning modding. There are other changes necessitated by the inclusion of palette theming and an effort to reduce anti-virus flagging. Please read the full download post for more details.

Aurora (Mac) is compatible with Apple Silicon Chips and Blender 3.3, it can clone platforms for recoloring, and it has a tuning editor for CAS and object tuning modding.

Please note, the tuning editor is a beta feature, and Sims 4 contains far too many tuning elements for us to test them all. Thus, you may encounter issues using the tuning editor. If an unexpected or unwanted outcome occurs, please report this with as many details as you can (including the affected .package), so the editor can be perfected.

Thank you to Brujah, Feyona, and Mauvemorn for alpha testing the new version and to our lovely community for keeping us inspired with your amazing creations!

Choose your version to download HERE. Please be sure to read the full download post to learn the details of each Studio beta.
