Hello! Can you please explain me how exatcly you changed the default replacement file? Simply swapping the texture images doesn't work for me, the skin just reverts to maxis default.

I'm looking for a less dramatic change, so I'm trying to replace D3 skin with "pumpkin spice". And maybe i would also change the other defaults, if I only knew the method.

Thanks in advance!

Hey!
Hopefully this is still of some use. I followed the steps given to me by @simmer22 here. I don't remember anymore if I had to extra google for help. I think the hardest part was correctly identifying the ages for each texture :D

UPDATE!
So... changing skintone value is actually not difficult at all? Here are Potato, Brick, Pumpkin Spice and Roasted Almonds with their values changed so they come after Swarthy as Default 3 (whose value is 0.6)! Their values are set as 0.61, 0.62, 0.63 and 0.64 so they are snuggled right between Swarthy and next darker swatch which is 0.65. I hope you enjoy


Updated
Changed the values of the skins darker than Swarthy.
