Hi Everyone, I've been searching for the answer here on the forum but only got to the part where clothes were made available from full body to top or vice versa which isn't covering my question at all unfortunately. For these last few months it's been bugging the plum (self sensor ) out of me that a lot of clothes are (in my opinion) wrongfully tagged. Example; bra's (nightwear) that's in the everyday category. first I thought that if I opened these package files (in case with CC) through S4S I could retag them --> apply to all swatches --> save package file and put it back in my mods folder it would be fine... Butttt... they kept showing up in the categories that orginal creator tagged them into. That's when a lightbulb went on and I noticed that all EA underwear/bikini's shows up in the 'Everyday' department. Which probably is the problem; most clothes are cloned from those EA items that (probably) carry this data on where (which category) the items should show up. The everyday category is becoming a gigantic pile of all types of clothing. That why I have a dire need to re-categorize the way I explained above. so that searching/scrolling becomes less demanding. But also because I just don't want to see all my bikini bottoms/weddingdresses/etc/etc in the everyday department when i'm scrolling through. orangemittens Is there any way for me to edit the data the EA bottoms carry? to stop it from showing up in the everyday department? Thank you in advance for responding!!!

Have you tried using the My CC feature? There is a tutorial HERE that shows how to use that. The check box for "Everyday" is there and you can apply to all swatches. Hi orangemittens! Thank you for your reply! I did but unfortunately it doesn't work ... I uncheck the categories where I don't want them to show up and press save. Weird thing is that the are package files saved in the process; the dates are altered to the date I tried to change the categories. The deleting CC does feature work. Is there maybe some cache file that needs to be re-generated? I really followed the tut step by step which is a easier version of what I previously did.

Hi Renorasims, I took a look at the issue and I see what you're saying. The thing is, Studio is saving the tag change but the game is not filtering by everyday unless you select that category using the side pop-up box: When I just selected everday by clicking the little sun, the game did not apply the filter and all garments, even EA's formal garments, showed up in the everyday catalog. Have you tried sorting like this in the game? Also, please excuse my accidental deletion of my post above your last one.

Hi orangemittens ! No problem! Thank you for you reply This will make sorting a lot easier! Never thought that the game would not go along in that system as well. I'm still having a bit of an issue but I don't think there's anything that can be done; townies wear bikini's that show up in the everyday section as everyday clothing... Is there a way to solve this with S4S? I tried creating overrides and but that doesn't help unfortunately. Don't allow for random would probably mean that they also don't wear them in the swimwear category?

Hi Renorasims, have you observed this happening with garments after the correct tagging has been applied? That is, I feel pretty sure that if something was incorrectly tagged as "everyday" and the game generated a random townie wearing that garment as their everyday outfit, that fixing the tag would not fix that Sim. It "should" stop future townie Sims from being generated wearing that garment but it cannot remove an already assigned garment.
If you're saying that random townie Sims are being generated with these garments as their everyday item even when the item is not tagged as everyday, then it seems that whatever determines the sorting that occurs when you click the little sun/tie/soccer ball/moon/balloon/water toy tabs in CAS is the same thing that determines which garments townies have available to them for those various categories. If that is the case, no amount of tagging of any kind will stop this from happening. The little sun tab does not determine which items the game considers everyday garments at this time. Instead, according to that system, every garment is available as everyday wear. If that is true, it is possible that only EA can fix this issue and it would require patching in functionality for that tab system. I haven't looked at the system enough (and I don't know that anyone has) to know if there was some way a fix for this problem could be modded in.
