A "batch fix" that, instead of fixing anything, simply output a text file with each package's file name and associated category tags. That way I could feed that file to powershell and use a simple script to put everything into subfolders based on the categories it would be under in CAS/build.

An apply to all swatches for display index would be awesome. I like to reorder how my CC shows in CAS to make sure my favorites are at the top of the list. Currently to change the order in CAS I must change the display index on each "CAS Part" or swatch. Some things this is no big deal but when an item has over 50 swatches I go a little crazy. If there is already an easier way to do this that I am not aware of I'm all ears . I love this program and appreciate all the team does!

As others here have noted, the ability to batch-process the fashion/outfit/subpart tags for a bunch of files at once would be a godsend. I’ve found that a lot of CC simply doesn’t set them properly at all, resulting in an absolute mess in CAS, and editing each one manually takes a long time.
And speaking of editing them manually: another huge help would be a way to disable the confirmation (“are you sure?”) dialogs for both “Apply to All Swatches” and “Save”, as it would cut down on a lot of steps when manually editing a lot of CC files.
The ability to collapse and/or reorder certain tag categories in the CC editing sidebar would be useful; e.g. I don’t really care about the “Fabric” or “Archetype” categories, but they’re between “Outfit Type” and “Subpart Type”, requiring more mouse movement and/or scrolling.
Finally, although this one is much harder: having the program auto-scan colors in swatch textures and attempt to set the appropriate color tags that way. It would probably involve scanning the texture pixel-by-pixel, sorting each pixel into a broad color category, then totaling up the percentages of each category. Percentages above a certain threshold would have the corresponding tag checked. Example: a red swimsuit with white polka-dots might end up being 90% “red” and 10% “white”. In this case, the “Red” color tag would be set, but “White” would not as there’s not enough in the texture to qualify.
Hope this helps! The work you’ve put into this program is phenomenal, and I seriously appreciate it.

It would be neat if there could be an Allow/Disallow batch option for humans, if that is possible.

My wishlists
- Ability to apply the same flag changes to multiple selected packages at the same time
For example, I want to select all my clothing, and disable the "Restrict Opposite Gender" and have it applied to all selected CC and all swatches within it. Having a batch fix would be better but given that cannot be created by us, this will be a good workaround.
- Setting to enable "Auto apply to all swatches" and "Auto save"
When I make a change, it is very rare that I only want to modify one swatch. Would be great if it auto-applied to all swatches to reduce the amount of clicking. Also, having a setting to allow auto-save on change means even less clicks.
- Being able to see the thumbnail in "My CC"
It can be really hard to tell from the mash if something is a swimwear / sleepwear (as an example). Having access to the thumbnail will make it much easier. This feature already exists in "My Project" so hopefully an easy addition to "My CC"
Batch Fix wishlist:
- Set "Fashion Choice" to align with "Gender" (where gender is not empty) - Set "Age Appropriate" to align with "Age" (where age is not empty) - Set "Restrict Opposite Gender" - Set "Restrict Opposite Frame" - Remove "Nude" from Outfit Category - Disable all Occult

To reorganize color flags of swatches it would be easier to handle, if changes were made to all selected ones instead of really all ones. That would safe much time while reorganising cc.

Hello I'm looking for some help to fix my situation. I recently learned about batch fixing and read a thread on how to. It wasn't until after I completed the batch fix and noticed some glitches in my game that I came back to the thread for more information. I use CC and mods in my game and had some default replacement body parts in my game when I ran the batch fix. The thread told me I should have removed those first before running the batch fix and that to undo this I could simply go to the backup folder that the batch fix creates and move those files back into the game to replace the "fixed" ones. I did this and rebooted my game but still have issues. So now when playing with sims who had default replacement feet, anytime i take off their shoes and socks, they have no feet. Same for sims with a default replacement torso, their entire torso is gone when I remove their tops. Please help me to fix this if you can!!!

I think I've posted this before (or on a different thread?), but wanted to mention again:
I'd love a batch fix option to update the Display Index Number. Speaking as someone who is OCD about order and organization, it really bugs me when CC creators either don't have their content grouped together, or it gets mixed up with someone else's content. At the moment, I go through and manually update all the CC I download and follow a spreadsheet with DIN and CC creators, but this takes so so so long.
I know it's a long shot, or not something high in demand, but every time there is a S4S update I am quietly praying for this kind of addition.

Hi I just download the latest version of the windows version of studio and after deleting the old then installing the new discovered a problem. The "mannequin"doesn't exist. all there is is the floating bra\underwear\boxers, and a blank space, that's all. If you use previous custom content, they float in space, nothing happens.

I was thinking more of being able to apply to all cas parts in warehouse like we have in studio, this would be super helpful for display index and for when I'm hiding occult cc from humans and similar

Oh, *this* is the thread I was looking for. I would seriously love a batch fix to uncheck the "Situation", "Career", and "Witch" tags on CAS items: these and the Occult tags are the biggest culprits IME when it comes to CC that's supposedly disabled for random showing up on townies anyway. Going through and unchecking them manually is taking me forever...

I find myself having to fix tags on a lot of cc - such as re-categorizing items that are checked as plants that clearly are not, formal gowns that would not be good swimsuits, and the like. I wish there was a way to see what items were categorized as: such as searching for all items marked as swimwear, or plants, or clutter to see if they are properly categorized. My current method is writing down or taking pictures while I am in-game but not all cc is in English, or properly tagged or described. Thanks!! Since this post is so old, I'm only replying to help others who may read this and have the same issue. The only way I've found to fix this, so far, is to use Sims 4 Tray Importer to find the stuff so you can edit it quickly in S4S. 1) Go into CAS and load up a household with all the mis-tagged stuff. 2) Save the household to your library. Exit the game without saving. 3) Open S4TI. Click the library icon. Click your messed up household. Click the "CC" tab. 4) You will now have a list of all the CC you loaded onto that household. 5) Crtl+A to select all the CC. Right-Click to open the context menu. "Open in containing folder". 6) In each folder, all you have to do now is drag everything to a new, empty folder. Name the new folder something you'll recognize. 7) Now go into S4S and open the folder you just dragged everything into. Edit as desired. It's kind of time-consuming. But this guarantees you only have to edit stuff that is messed up instead of working your way through your entire Mods folder. I keep trying to find a program that will make this easier. But no luck. I have over 20,000 items in my Mods folder. Doing this manually is a lifelong project.

I created a thread that a lot of people viewed but no one responded to so I'm wondering if anyone in this thread can help! Does anyone know how to recategorize cc chairs/tables in S4S to make them compatible with Dine Out? There are old instructions that say you have to add a number tag to these items (1006 or 1008, something along those lines), but these instructions only work for older versions of S4S that had the "warehouse" tag. I have the most recent version of S4S for Mac! I would be so grateful if anyone could help me with this
