Suntan Clothing Fix

Added 2024-12-21 19:55:56 +0000 UTC

This is an override that edits official game clothes to fix issues with suntans showing up correctly on genitals.

Because of the way sim textures are set up, the game can't recognize that when your sim gets a tan while wearing clothing, their genitals shouldn't tan. The result is incorrect tan lines, as shown on the left in the image above. I've edited the textures of a variety of official clothes so your sim's tan lines make sense, as shown on the right in the image above.

NOTES:
This fix only edits textures. It should be compatible with mods that edit meshes or CASpart resources - like my BetterBulges mod - but you'll likely have a conflict with any mods that edit the same textures as this file.

The fix currently contains edits for clothing from the Bottoms > Swimwear and Full Body > Swimsuits categories. I may add other clothing in the future.

I've fixed both male and female swimwear. The preview picture above shows the before/after on a male sim simply because it's easier to get pictures that illustrate the issue.

You can use body parts from any creator and they should work with the fix (provided they've used the same texture space for genitals that WickedWhims/Simdulgence parts use).

The fix involves editing each swatch's texture individually. If you use any custom swatches for a 'fixed' item, it will still cause incorrect tan lines.

The fix includes edits for outfits from the following packs:
Base Game, Seasons, Island Living, Life and Death, Spa Day, Perfect Patio, Moschino, Poolside Splash
