Recategorizing Clothing for Outerwear (the "hard" way)
maxon:
Just a couple of additional things - to add hexidecimal codes together you can use your Windows calculator in hexidecimal mode (just click the hex option). And, I think if you want an outfit available for both sexes it's 3 - at least it is with children and toddlers. I want to change a pile of my clothes for outerwear too (I have some nice long coats for men) but I'm even lazier than you and am waiting for SimPE.

Oh, good to know, thanks. I wouldn't have thought of that.

LOL - the only reason I'm not being lazy about this is because I'm on spring break this week and actually have time to play the game. Next week I'm back in classes - I wanna play NOW, dang it!

Product determines what game it's from.
1 = Base game
2 = University
3 = Nightlife
4 = OFB
5 = FFS
6 = GLS
7 = Pets
8 = Seasons
0 = Custom content
Creator is the creator. 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 is essentially Maxis' creator id. If you set the creator to zeros, then identify a product number besides 0, the game will see that clothing/hair/accessory as native. I edited all my Maxis items like that so that they show up without the star and with any applicable EP.
Okay, so if you take custom content and ID it as Maxis, will randomly generated Sims then use that content like they will colorbinned custom hair?

Yes it should do, according to the all the tutorials I've read on the subject anyway.
I consider myself resonably intelligent but everytime I come on these boards I feel ridiculous. I really want to change some of my clothes to the outerwear category but I have no idea where to go to change these codes or even how to access the Skins.package. I think it's time to find some tutorials. :-\

Thanks, that thread looks quite useful.
I had managed to find the skins.package but I couldn't work out how to open it, even using SimPE. I have asked about 4 questions recently and got polite and helpful answers for all of them, so I'm trying to avoid making any new threads for a while because I don't want to push my luck! ;) Plus I'm a bit strange in that it's the simple things where I come unstuck (like opening the skins.package) once I get down to the complicated stuff I can usually work it out for myself.
