  I'm not sure I understand what you want.

You talked about Ni nanoparticles (for a Ni HFF you may need a better 
core potential), but also about Cu-4s transfered HFF (for Cu-HFF, I 
don't think you need good core contributions on Ni), and finally about 
PAC (usually on impurities like In or Cd ?). For In/Cd you can also have 
a transfered HFF, but for this you don't need core-potentials. It comes 
solely from the 4s (5s) valence polarization.

The core HFF (1s,2,s3s) is introduced ONSITE by the 3d magnetic moment, 
but In, Cd or Cu does not have a large onsite d-moment.
