Bone assignments

[alfiemoon]

I have made an accessory in CTU but at first I thought it wasnt showing up in CAS, but can now see that it is between the feet of the model; reading other threads I think this is about bone assignments. I've spent I don't know how long trying to find an answer to this, and I apologise if it's two threads below mine but, how do I know what bones to assign the accessory to? It is a mask type accessory, so I assigned it to b_head new and glasses as the object I cloned it from, earrings, had those assignments (at least I think they did; it's been days so I might have confused that). Obviously that hasn't worked. I already have the unimesh tool downloaded but don't know what I am supposed to see in Milkshape, or even if I am looking for the right thing. All I can see is unimesh for sims 2 in the Vertex list.

Can anyone please give me a clue as to how to know what I should be looking for, or another thread or, anything? I don't like to post without trying to find out for myself first but I'm at a loss now.

thanks in advance for any help :help:

do not use the glasses, that joint doesn't get exported correct.

Thank you for the quick reply; I've tried a couple of other combinations and now have it working fine. I don't know why using the 'NoseArea' didn't occur to me earlier! I suppose I just thought I had to keep to the original assignments. This whole sims thing is one permanent, never ending learning curve but i'm going to nail it one day. Thank you ;)
