Wardrobe Wrangler Released!
eevilcat:
When you call it TSR spyware, do you just mean a mechanism whereby they can track a downloaded file to the individual who's account it was downloaded from? As in generating a key unique to an user account id. Or do you mean something nastier?
Tarlia:
Hi, question: Can this be used to recategorize Maxis clothes? So I can put those silly GLS fur coats in Outerwear and remove them from everyday and formal, etc.
Lord Darcy:
No, it can't be used on Maxis clothing. To recategorize Maxis clothes, write down the name of the Maxis clothing you want to recategorize in CAS debug mode, and find the Property Set for that clothes using the SimPE's resource finder. (PropertySet Search) Extract the property set, make a new file, and add the extracted resourse to the new file. Change the category as you want. You can find category value here.
A lot of creators already made various outerwear mods/clothing hiders. You can edit them to suit your needs. For example, fanseelamb's Outerwear mod adds GLS coat to Outerwear. Download the mod, and change the category in Property Set to 0x1000 (Outerwear only).

It appears to be some manner of polymorphic viral string. We have witnessed files infected by it where the string appears to have multiplied itself within the datafile, as well as been infected by other polymorphed variants of it, which sometimes have also multiplied. We believe that it may be an early attempt at a virus intended to infect your other sims files, but it apparently does not work entirely right and only manages to infect itself.

Is there more technical info available, so that this tool and others may - if the coder wishes to do so, of course - be able to cope with it?
The customary method is to acquire two different sources of this file, tear the package apart into its component subfiles, and then hex-diff the file. The virus is pretty primitive and only appends itself to certain filetypes, so once you have two samples with different polymorph variants, you simply truncate the file at the first difference between the two. This is not a process suitable for home processing, because it requires two samples of what is known to be the same file, but we have this automated at PMBD.

Thank you. I already have some of these mods but they're not entirely to my liking. I'll try to fiddle around with them.
