- Chicklet453684 years agoSeasoned AceI'm not sure what you mean, do you mean can you re-tag CC clothing so that it appears in other categories?
I'm pretty sure you can do that in S4S, just open the package up and under tags is what it's tagged as and you can tick any boxes you want the item to appear in, then save the package and the next time you open up CAS those items should be in the category you chose now. - Simmerville4 years agoLegendThanks. I mean when I choose say the "Country" style in CAS, I want to see all CC that is Country looking. Some CC were obviously created on the base of a piece of clothes that was tagged for another category, so it won't show up in the Country category even if it belongs there, visually. If it was based on something in the "Rocker" category, it will show up as suitable for a Rocker.
I checked in S4S but could not find any section referring to styles. Besides, I think CC might contain different tag possibilities depending on when they were created. The tag sections vary a little bit from item to item. Like for some I can set what material they are made from, while others can't. I think some of those tag sections were not there from the start, but as all CC works fine any tag slots added after the creation should be there as empty slots.
Btw, I might not have the very last S4S version, but it's not very old (6 months?), so if categories were ever covered they should be long before the version I got.
Added: Maybe it is possible to adjust style tags only for CC that was copied from items with the style tag categories added already. - JaggidEdje4 years agoSeasoned AceI poked around in S4S, of which I have the newest version, and I see no place to specify the tags specific to the CAS filters which you are talking about.
The information does show up though if you look on the "text" tab when viewing an item in S4S, so it looks like what you'd need to do is directly edit the text fields to reclassify CC. I find this interesting, that S4S chooses to just not have a place with checkboxes for setting that. Maybe it is an oversight by the developers of S4S. - Simmerville4 years agoLegend

Thanks for looking into it! Yeah, would be so much easier if styles had their own section of check boxes like other specs have. I'll not taking the time to edit files in other ways, got to many of them. - JaggidEdje4 years agoSeasoned AceI hear you there. I have too much cc to take the time to do it that way either.
I created a brand new CC cowboy hat, using the game's base cowboy hat as the starting point, to look into this for this thread. Even that brand new CAS item made with an item already set with the "Country" style has no checkboxes for those styles...so it is definitely just not a feature of S4S. - Chicklet453684 years agoSeasoned AceI noticed this too when DHD came out and the preferences were added. I'm a BB CC creator so I wanted to tag my packages to reflect the correct design styles and S4S had no option for this.
You could try to look at TSRW, I'm not sure if there's a way on that program to do it or not. I'm not overly familiar with that program. - crocobaura4 years agoLegendMaybe it's not possible to tag recolours, only meshes?

It's entirely possible, mesh or no mesh. It's just not a feature that S4S gives checkboxes for, regardless of whether it's a mesh or a just a recolor. You could still do it by editing directly as text. It is even quite straight forward to do so...just more effort is required than what a simple checkbox would take. - Chicklet453684 years agoSeasoned Ace

My CC creations are made with brand new custom meshes I created in blender, they aren't recolors of game objects. I think it's just that S4S doesn't have this option. - Simmerville4 years agoLegendInteresting to follow your discussion, although I'm not a creator myself (just did a few recolors). At some point I will probably be forced to stop adding CC, maybe then I will make a plan for recoding those text files. Not this week, nor the next ;)
