Wonderful! I've been meaning to do this for some of those outfits for a very long time. Thanks for saving me the trouble.

What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.

Very nice!

Quick question...if a hider doesn't affect any of the same outfits as these (say one that removes the FT circus clothes totally, yours does not do anything with those outfits) will it still conflict?

jenwar, as long as your hiders do not affect the clothes I've listed they will NOT conflict. You can enjoy what I've done here and still be circus clown free.

Thanks for commenting!

Nope, can't be sneaky. There is no mesh or texture included for these outfits, you can't steal them this way.

Sorry if I sound dense, (stupid head injury) I download and extract all of these except teen stuff and freetime (don't have them) into my Bon Voyage BIN which has in it a file named "globalcatbundle" which I do not delete? Is that right?

#15 Old 6th Apr 2008 at 12:59 AM
Thanks so much for this! You rock!

But, even though I have FreeTime, and I put the files in the Stuffpack folder, none of the clothes have changed categories or anything. (Same thing happened with your buy mode edit)

Do you know why it might be doing this, or must I use the Bins folder?

Thanks so much!

Nothing bad will happen if you install them to the wrong folder, they just won't change anything. I didn't test every game configuration but I believe both the Bins folder or the StuffPack folder should work. If you'd like to be a guinea pig and explain in detail which EPs and SPs you have and which folder you placed them in and if you put it in a sub folder or not, then I'd be more than willing to work with you to figure it out. Otherwise, its just best guess from my end. Sorries!

Quick question. I looked and couldn't find it, but maybe it's there and I just didn't look hard enough. The question is: What happens to sims wearing items you changed the catagory of? I have some children in household where I have not ever been shopping (it's a choir in my game, speed wise) who aged into the swim suits or dragon suits. I admit I probably go shopping as soon as I can when I get one in a dragon suit, but I know I have at least two children in swimsuits. I also have toddlers in the same situation who are wearing the animal outfits. Will they just end up in whatever the base outfit is (for toddler girls I think this is a white dress with flowers or something on it) or will something else happen? I certainly relish the idea of never seeing my children in those swimsuits as their day wear or toddlers out of those animal costumes ever again.

Does that mean yes? Download all except the EPs I do not own?

Hmmm I tried putting them in the Bins folder and in the Stuffpack folder (under Freetime, I have all EPs) and it didn't work in either place :\

Same here. I tried it with subfolders and nothing changed. I tried it with simply tossing the files in the Stuffpack and Bin folder and nothing changed.

I have all EP's, GLS and TSS.

I used just Seasons, FT, GLS and TSS because for the other EP'S I have hiders.

They will randomly be assigned a new outfit. Took me the LONGEST time to remember Marylena Hamilton's outfit. I saw her in someone's story and was like 'Oh yeah!'

Anyone who is still having trouble getting this to work, please, standard mod testing procedure, temporarily remove ALL your downloads and mods and hacks and silver monkeys and test only my packages. Its depressing for you that something you want doesn't work, but its also depressing for me. I created and and shared it because I wanted you to have it. Currently though, I am baffled as to why it is working 'sometimes'.

Thank you VERY much for this! Maxis has made a disaster of any sort of logic that may have once existed in how things are categorized.

I have a small question though... How did you get the wider display for the clothes in CAS?? I recently got a widescreen monitor and CAS is insufferable with the tabs not stretching the width of my screen (as would be rational).
