Does anyone know how to edit this mod? [Demon tail for succubus]

[fekoll]

I'm gonna be honest, this for me it's the best demon/succubi like tail, it looks great in the Sim but (and i am VERY greatful for the author, don't get me wrong) it sucks ass that it is tied to the color of the skin of the Sim, and it would be perfect if it wasn't. I tried my luck with Sims 4 Studio but i have no idea how to add colors to this mod.

 

Does anyone knows how to do this? The author allows for modifications of the mod/CC by the way: https://notegain.tumblr.com/post/109195022028/nightcrawler-tail-unisex

 

All other demon tails CCs i've seen are either too low poly, too big or too overdesigned. Like i said, this tail is tied to the skin of your Sim and it is affected by some blush makeup. It would look amazing if i could change the color to fit the aesthetic of the characters i'm creating.?

So it works in game erm only one problem when zooming out the texture on the tail disappears not sure if it my crappy graphics on my lap top [some other cc does it as well] or its something i did in moving the texture ?? I am a complete noob at this and honestly its the first time i've ever done this. I sent you a private message, explaining where the texture is and everything, i'm posting this here so maybe some one more experienced can say wether its my crappy graphics or something i've done.

You need to move the UVs/Textures for each LOD, otherwise they won't load properly when zooming out.

 

Also I made some succubus CC a while ago : https://www.patreon.com/posts/devil-set-rhea-42470014

The tails are quite different, but they're not tied to the skin texture.

Okay, Thank you  i'm still learning i am a complete noob  i figured it was probably me lol 

 

Edit Note: its my laptop's low graphics - my iMac has its sims 4 graphics set to high & uncompressed sim texture so zooming out the colour stayed on the tail, where as my Laptop has pretty low Graphics so i loose texture when zooming out which why the cc hair was shinny as well. anywho thanks for the help tho i think i really need to learn about LOD's as well.

You can try this:

 

[erplederp] NotEgain Nightcrawler Tail (Colored).package

 

 

It has only black swatches, but the texture is in an accessory space, so you can recolor it easily using S4S. It does not have proper LODs (just a single mesh for all levels) so it might impact the performance somewhat.
