NPC outfit customization / Fashion Police  

If you're tired of NPCs dressing up like a bum, showing off flowered stockings, dressed under an evening dress or gaudy house pants with heels, then feel free to download these settings!

!!  PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY  !!

This is still a work-in-progress (WIP), and does not yet include Children or Toddlers. This is a CC-FREE version, and as such makes use of various EPs/GPs/SPs. The less packs you own, the more likely you are to get "broken" outfits (outfits which have part of it missing, or replaced with an undesired piece). Broken (or even unwanted) outfits can be removed permanently from the list (see GUIDE). If there is an outfit you do not like on a specific sim, you can load a new random one without removing it from the list (see GUIDE). NOTE: When adding or removing outfits from the list, 'Teens/Young Adults/Adults' are one age group, while 'Elders' are a separate one, and must be added or removed separately!

There is an easy to use, Outfit Filter made by @erplederp. The Outfit Filter is an application that allows users to easily remove outfits from the list, that contain items from unwanted packs. This is an essential tool for any user who does not own all the packs, and is still useful for those that do. Simply, check off the packs you want potential outfits to use. Any outfit using a pack that is left unchecked will be deleted. The Outfit Filter is a 64b Windows application and may not be usable by all users. As such, I have included a "Base Game only" version of the .cfg file as a separate download option (includes the Free Holiday Pack). Anyone who cannot use the Outfit Filter, and would like a different combination of packs filtered, may post a request. I will gladly add it at my earliest convenience.

GUIDE FOR MC DRESSER: LIMITATIONS, SETTINGS, & HOW TO USE IT

    MC Dresser handles; Clothing, Accessories (Head & Body), Hair, and Makeup. For this project we are currently focusing on Outfits which is a combination of Clothing and Accessories. If you wish to use MC Dresser to control Hair and Makeup, you can. There is an easy way to add my list of "clean" outfits to your own .cfg file (see INSTALLATION).

    When cleaning a sim's outfit, if the sim is already wearing a clean outfit, no changes will be made. You can also FLAG sims individually to bypass any cleaning. This allows you to have a custom non-clean outfit on your active sim, but have MC Dresser clean the other household members so that you don't have to worry about dressing them.

LIMITATIONS: The mod does not take into account clothing preferences. This means that females will still wear the same outfits that all other females wear, even if they have a masculine clothing preference. The same goes for males. I have no control over this, but if enough people ask Deaderpool to add this in, I'm assuming he will. There is also no global selection options for cleaning sim outfits. What I mean is; you cannot choose only NPCs, played households, or active households. The mod cleans outfits on ALL sims, unless they are flagged not to. Though you can also clean outfits on a single sim at a time. I spoke to Deaderpool about adding these options in a future update. His reply was that flagging sims does the job as intended, you could achieve the same effect by flagging sims individually, and he had no plans on adding any global selection options.
