disabling random outfit switching?

All Sims change outfits depending on what they are doing. If you switch to formal, and it's not a formal occasion, they will switch back.

I'm slightly confused, unless you mean Sims won't wear their Everyday clothes?

This is one of the features from TS4 I really like (If I had to say where I see an improvement in this game), never knowing which outfit they will choose each day... but surely there is a mod to take it off... It is always amaizing the different things each of us likes in the game!

I have multiple outfits per category and I am fine with the switching at times, but other times it is irritating me.

An example. I have a Sim who has the nature aspiration and so I have created two everyday outfits. One for ambling through the park, and hanging around the house, etc, and another when getting down and dirty digging up rocks and stuff. If I go into plan outfits for another Sim and return, the Sim with two outfits will be wearing her default outfit (slot 1), but if I select 'Change Outfit', then slot 1 is available to select, but slot 2 isn't. I have to select slot 1 and then select 2 to get the outfit I want. This happens on every load change and when leaving the house, etc.

What is happening is that the outfit from slot 1 is actually in slot 2 as the change outfit shows which is the current outfit. just I don't think this working as intended.

Sorry it seems complicated to explain.

I did consider setting every slot the same, but then what is point of providing additional slots? I can live with it and will use workrounds, but if anyone knew of a way to gain more control on outfits, that would be nice.

IN TS4, there really is no "default" outfit, unlesseh you're talking about a specific occasion. If that's the case, you can set any outfit for any category. So, if you want your sim to walk around in a wedding gown and diamonds at bed time, set that as a sleep outfit.

MTS has a mod that will set the Sims to wear clothes based on the time of day. IE, if you shower at 8pm, they get out and change into pjs.

I could be wrong, but I think the OP is referring to Sims randomly changing their everyday wear to everyday outfit #1. This happens to me too. For example: I put my child sim in outfit #2 and right before she goes to school, she changes back to outfit #1. Or I put them in outfit #3, send them to the park and,( yes, you guessed it) they show up wearing outfit #1.

I thought that was what you meant....so far as I know, there isn't a mod to fix it.

I like that the outfits are random but I would prefer if they only changed autonomously once a day and only if you didn't select an outfit. I like to see them in different everyday outfits but never feel like picking their outfit unless I have particular reason.

Weird. That doesn't happen to me. They were whatever they put on after their morning shower. They'll even show up in gym clothes or formal wear if that was the last thing they were wearing.

To get back into the outfit you want, you can do a double switch, but it is tedious.

So it seems this Christmas, some of my Sims will turn up to a Christmas party in their 'tidy the house' clothes and be unable to order a drink :)
