Color Wheel Mod

I've never used mods in any of the Sims games. If someone made a colour wheel mod or a VERY easy way to recolour items, I'd be second in line for it (not first because who needs that? :wink: )

I miss the Color wheel a lot but I don't think it will be possible for modders to put it in as much as I'd love to see it.
I hope modders get to work on the instant skill point mods and adjusting friendships soon.

Color wheel was a pain to match the colors, you had to type in three sets of number to match up the colors on anything for each piece of the clothing or furniture.

I guess you missed the drag and drop feature. You could drag and drop colors within a pattern and patterns within an object, and even drag colors and patterns between objects. Never needed to type a thing.

with all the modders out there there is hope that someone who has a lot of time on their hands will create a color wheel mod possibly a create-a-style mod

Not if the game engine doesn't support it, as I believe is the case.

I haven't missed the colour wheel all that much yet, except for bed covers and hair colours, that's about it

Oh I would SO be DL'ing that. I'm already sick of furniture that doesn't quite match up with other pieces! Not to mention the different pieces of clothes!

Seems like a mod developed for a Color Wheel is possible.

It will require a basic GUI design and code to implement a type of functionality that is user friendly. Something basic like the counter select option when you turn off the Auto-counters that pulls up the gear mechanism icon.

EXAMPLE


You can access the interface the same way that you would select a color pattern for an object.
Next, you need to "click on the rainbow colored box" inside of the preset color pattern section to bring up the color-picker GUI interface.
The color-picker should have an interface that supports multi-color functionality.

Click the top or bottom color pattern box to select the primary or secondary color assignment.

Use the mouse around inside of the color field to browse through the colors.

Click inside of the color field to select a color to assign to the pattern.

You can also manually select a color by entering in the RGB or HEX values.

From there, you can easily recolor any object in game. This feature also supports clothing and accessories. (*)

wait this is available now??

I really miss the colour wheel, so if it is possible indeed, and someone would make a mod of it, I would definitely download! Yes, they've given us quite a few colours to choose from, but getting your furniture to match isn't exactly easy. And I find myself loving some clothes, but then hating the colours.

No, I wish something like this was available right now. As of right now, the above image is only an idea.

I missed the color wheel also. But, if let me chose between the color wheel and the smooth game performance, I will definitely choose the performance.
