I used a tutorial succesfully through SimPE and it worked perfectly, just the thing is in the Sims2 game there is a big gaping hole in the sims neck from where I changed the clothing from adult to teens.

I've found a nude mesh which I believe would help, I got it from XM Sims.

I am not even sure if I am doing this 100% the correct way.

Could I also be recommended to a program that I can use to mesh it right please. I have SimPE but it sounds like you need to use something anther program to make it possible.

Does anyone know how to mesh a nude skin please, apparently it will give it the best finish.

Thanks in advance.

I dont know too much about this because i havent done this but i do know you cant just change clothes from an adult to a teen. You can change an adult to a Young adult or elder.

You need milkshape to edit the mesh.

That is correct, teen meshes are too short (thus the neck gap) for adults.

If you want to learn how to _edit_ a mesh, you need to start with the Unimesh tutorial we have here on site, and also read the unimesh manual and learn how to use milkshape so that you can correctly size the teen's mesh as adult -- it can be done, but you will have to learn a lot of things to get to that point, the beginning tutorial (which doesn't even teach you all you need) is like 50 steps long.
