Black Scalp on new skintone

[foolinthemoon]

Anyone able to tell me what the HECK is going on with it???

I'm using Paint.NET all my files are BMP and they are flattened, they have been colored, its not that particular hair, and its for all ages, genders, and body types, and i HAVE searched for an answer, and found a few, yet not found one that helps me... i'm desperate... HALP!

The only thing i have not yet done is start up my game to see if it happens during game play.

I know i have to make all the files into png when i transfer them over to make them a default... which i've already done. Will the black scalp go away when i overwrite the default? or do i need to fix it before i continue... if so... how?

:new: Edit: i went ahead and made it into a default in hopes that the skin would not turn black in game once defaulted... and lucky me, it didn't... now just to tweak the skin some more...

however, I'd still like to know how to solve the problem... as it seems to happen alot and no one has yet to find a suitable answer.

Go clone it in bodyshop, try running through the image files and see if any of them are black.

I've no idea how to edit alphas in Simpe so i can't really help you with defaults but checking std's will at least tell you what you might have missed.
