I have a brand-new computer (HP desktop - less than 1 month old with 6 GB Ram, AMD Phenom 9550 Quad-Core processor - 2.20 GHz, Nvidia GeForce 9100 graphics card, Windows Vista 64-bit), and I have every EP and SP of Sims 2. The game works great, custom content works great, and I can do recolors in Bodyshop.
What I can't do, and I WAS able to do on my old computer, is edit alphas on clothing. If I so much as remove the alpha of gloves or nylons, or try to change the neckline, the project goes bad and I get a pure white mesh. Even undoing and resaving the original alpha in my paint program will not "cure" the problem - once it's broke it can't be fixed.
I would consider myself pretty experienced with Bodyshop - in the past I've changed sleeveless dresses into long-sleeved ones, made boxer briefs into bikini briefs, changed the opacity with various shades of grey, modified shoe styles, etc. But I can't do any of that any more.
To recap, any changes to the alpha will cause the mesh to turn white with no texture or alpha markings visible. I have a lot of projects I would like to do and cannot do them. Can someone please help me figure out what to do? Any and all assitance is greatly appreciated!
