Walkbys/Vistors wear outwear in the snow hack? I really really have searched ..

my current playable sims can have a snowball fight in their undies with hardly any adverse effect :D
I thought it had been pretty conclusively proven that wearing outerwear (or not) does not have any effect at all on the Sim's body temperature. I've had Sims freeze while wearing outerwear. I was under the impression that outerwear is purely for "looks", not for warmth.

Outerwear does have a very minor influence on how fast sims freeze. It is practically useless, however. The difference is minimal.

:-[ duh - thanks Emma. Okay - now just to prove I'm really stupid - how do you know what the temperature is? As far as I can tell the sim's individual temperature bars only show red, green and blue - not an actual temperature.
Also I do have JMs no uneeded coats hack - maybe that's why my townies aren't wearing their coats?
I don't have that hack and sims coming to my lots appear to wear coats at random. The welcome wagon never seem to wear coats. Walkbys often do in the winter and spring, invited guests occasionally do. Obviously this must be linked to the temperature being below -70 but it still looks random. It's especially odd because sometimes when I greet the guests and they come inside then immediately head outside again they will pause at the door to change into outerwear. Surely the temperature hasn't dropped the much in the time it's taken them to walk to the back door?
You can tell what the temperature is by downloading the lotdebugger (available in The Firing Range) and placing it on the lot. Clicking on it gives you the option Info>Temperature Stats (or something similar). An info box then pops up in the top right corner to tell you the temperature on the lot as well as various other temperature stats.

Ah ha! Thankyou. I'll have a look when I'm next playing and I think I'll try without nouneededcoats as well and see if that makes a difference. I'm aware my townies wont freeze - its just the look of the thing.

It has, it doesn't and I want my sims to wear outerwear in the snow purely for the look of it. It looks shit when they are all playing in deep snow, making snowangels and having snowball fights without wearing their hats and coats. I don't even like the outerwear without the mittens as I hate them making snowmen with bare hands. I know they can't feel it, but still....
