This is exactly what I'd like to know! I want to help if I can, but I have no idea how to do this.

Well It's possible to do but there's a bit of issues involved with doing it. It's not "real hair" perse. It's using the Shaders (or the functions of) the glasses from the Game which in it's own have been reported to have various results in other people's games (the top one in my game crashes for me, but in some others, it works). There's also a bit of mesh editing involved to get it on TS4 heads.

I'm working on the tutorial on how to do it using Sims4Studio right now. I will link to it when it's finished

You probably want to start by asking the questions

The problem with this is a shader related issue though (which is why it might not be working on Laptops or with Laptop Mode). This method is a basic Workaround using the shaders for glasses. This issue though is that it's very tricky to work with and has been reported to be crashing games anyway.

I made a post on it at the EA forums a little bit back and EA seems to be promising to look into implementing real hair shaders so this workaround may become obsolete in another patch.


If you can't get the custom hairs above to work then I advise you either disabling laptop mode or waiting for EA to patch Alpha editable hairs in. Preferably the latter as to not damage your system or card.

If laptop mode turns off alpha on glasses to make the game run faster, then I suspect they'd also want to have alpha turned off in laptop mode for hairs. Though I guess we'll see.

Maybe they'll make overall alpha support (on glasses and hair) a separate checkbox in the graphic settings.

Well I hope so too because if not it's gonna Screw over a lot of Laptop and lower end computers which would be very unfair and further negate their minimum system requirements. But likely EA might have a way of getting it working for everyone on every system.
