As many of you know there are outfits in the sims that are locked as a reward and your sim has to earn them by completing a career or visiting a specific festival. And right now the amount of outfits that show up when I filter on unlocked outfits is becoming overwhelmingFull Body outfitsSpoiler (Highlight to read)Base gamehttps://i.imgur.com/QH5rEDq.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/u4BDMXg.pngEPhttps://i.imgur.com/3RARyi4.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/2mgH8z8.pngOther DLChttps://i.imgur.com/4D9bQa1.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/FlOmkm6.pngBase gamehttps://i.imgur.com/QH5rEDq.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/u4BDMXg.pngEPhttps://i.imgur.com/3RARyi4.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/2mgH8z8.pngOther DLChttps://i.imgur.com/4D9bQa1.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/FlOmkm6.pngTopsSpoiler (Highlight to read)Base gamehttps://i.imgur.com/IhFVnbZ.pngDLChttps://i.imgur.com/qYuEe1k.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/3SoYMbY.pngBase gamehttps://i.imgur.com/IhFVnbZ.pngDLChttps://i.imgur.com/qYuEe1k.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/3SoYMbY.pngSpoiler (Highlight to read)Bottomshttps://i.imgur.com/C0etK7E.pngBottomshttps://i.imgur.com/C0etK7E.pngHats and accesoriesSpoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/P5kGEyT.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/ozKyd5k.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/P5kGEyT.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/ozKyd5k.pngKidsSpoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/Lc6NsCs.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/Lc6NsCs.pngSome of the outfits are really nice. I especially like the hat and pants from the style influencer career and the necklace and earrings from eco lifestyle.Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/7cTqkpj.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/7cTqkpj.pngI sometimes don't understand why so nice items are hidden to the point where a lot of players don't even know they are there.If anyone is interested in these outfits, I have uploaded my sim to the gallery here. Just add her to your household. You can delete her afterwards but the unlocks will stick to your household and all the outfits will be available. The only ones that are not unlocked with this sim are the ones from nifty knitting. This is intentional because I like to create these outfits for my sims through gameplay. The nifty knitting outfits have a cheat code to unlock them. I wish we could get a cheat to unlock all clothing across all packs. At this moment I only know of 4 DLC with a cheat to unlock outfits.Spoiler (Highlight to read)cas.unlockbytag SP17 nifty knitting cas.unlockbytag sp18 Paranormalcas.unlockbytag GP09 Batuucas.unlockbytag GP10 DHDcas.unlockbytag SP17 nifty knitting cas.unlockbytag sp18 Paranormalcas.unlockbytag GP09 Batuucas.unlockbytag GP10 DHD

Ooh another goal to add for my sim family. Thanks for sharing. I've never paid much attention to which outfits are locked but now I'm definitely going to focus on unlocking them.

I'm just the opposite, I actually like that those are locked. But yes I am goal oriented player.I actually dislike that everything is right there available in CAS, as I prefer TS2 style to buy my sims clothing from store (TS2 also had loading screens, so im used to) , but I totally get that not many like the hassle and all being there already in CAS is very handy.

I think these are two different things in my opinion.I like all assets that were created to be available when we first create a sim. But once the sim is in the world it makes no sense to have an infinite free wardrobe. I wish our sims had to go shop for clothing to get a new outfit (with all existing clothing available for purchase), and not just get it all for free.

Which game was it that you had to make friends with a sim to unlock an article of clothing they were wearing? I remember always making it a goal to befriend the homeless guy to unlock his outfit.

The amount of locked outfits is insane

I get why most of these items are unlocks
(to encourage you to get promoted in careers, do skill stuff etc)
and you can cheat them to show up for everyone in cas

but I don't really understand the basic items
like the hat you used here that don't really feel like they have much to do with particular career or skill

https://i.imgur.com/7cTqkpj.png

like if my sim was trendsetter would that mean they wear this kind of hat eh, not really.
but it might be good for about any random sim in the game so it really shouldn't be career specific

I feel kinda same about accessories too
it seems silly that sim can't have earrings because they're not on X career or something

That is indeed a lot of locked outfits.

I liked to make sims in CAS so I had a mod which unlocked most of them so I could create what I wanted. (Unlocked CAS Parts by Fogity). Because I was not going to replay a several year old pack just so I could make a sim who used the same hat from city living or whatever.

And sorry if this is off topic, but I can't believe that they haven't given us the option to have more columns in CAS without mods, you made a great overview of all the outfits in your pictures with 4 columns.

The developers often forget that in a sims game the user is both the player and the game master. Of course it makes sense to tie an individual sim's right to wear special outfits to that sim's achievements. But it doesn't make sense to restrict the player from using everything that is in the game when they want to set up their world, co-workers, antagonists or simply townies.

I wouldn't let a random sim wear the detective uniform with the badge, even if it was unlocked for everyone right from the beginning. So why lock it in the first place?

Once I started to use the more columns mod I can't play without it any more. It is odd that the sims team doesn't offer it as an option in the game. The update that allows us to scale the ui would have been a good opportunity to add more optional columns.

That is probably the reason why they are locked. But I am not going to play every career with every sim. I want to be able to use what is in the game. Now if I could unlock it for all households across all save games, then I would be interested. That's how it works for sims medieval where you can also unlock clothing. But in sims 4 I would have to unlock them over and over again for every household. And I have no interest in doing that more than once.
