Datgen

I think I still have DatGen - I keep everything.  mmm...

Edit
Yes - I have two, in fact

version 7.9 and one without a number but I think that was the last one (7.13?)

Do you want me to post it somewhere?

I know I should start using Simpe, but datgen is so much easier fot binning hair in the same family, and you get a thumbnail off the colour of the file.
I don't know why my hair toner option disappeared, I had some power outings and some programs bugged, and my monitor stopped working.
I found the programs, but they don't seem to have the hair toner.The 7.13 I had on CD, but installing it again didn't bring up the hairtoner, and i think the last ones didn't have it.
Maybe you could send me just the plugin?
Thank you anyway.

Theo's tool gives you a thumbnail too -- in fact, a thumbnail for every age.  Jelenedra is right in saying that havng more than one recolor per color bin is a little extra work, though.

In later versions of DatGen, Hairtoner is just a part of Skin Manager.  So click Skin Manager, then look up at the toolbars.  The Hairtoner icon is a little fire, the last icon on the lowest toolbar.

maxon:
Theo's tool for SimPE has superceded DatGen really - it does the same things and the big advantage is, you can also use it to remove unused ages like repeats of the elder hairs and the often unchanged toddler/child/teen stages.  Some of my previously huge hair files have plummeted size-wise and now have file sizes of 200-400kb.  Some remain larger but I'd say the hair folder occupies less than half the space it once did.  It's also very, very easy to use.

Indiasong:
I'm sold more or less. Where can I find a tutorial? I tried to use it, but I had to open each file in its turn, and when I wanted to save, it didn't get me the option to use the original file.
Datgen took all the files and saved all with a click.
I have managed to get a working one, but it doesn't have the thumbnails, so more or less useless.
