Winter Massacre
I just saved one sim from Grim after she collapsed from freezing. She was on the street in front of my sim's house and my sim convinced her to group up. It would take too long to walk back to my sim...

The way they did clothing doesn’t work and this is further proof.
The only way to prevent them from heat stroke and freezing to death is by dressing them in the cold or hot outfits. It doesn’t matter what they wear as long as it was selected as a hot or cold outfit.
But here’s the problem.. whenever a sim jogs, jogs with the dog, plays basketball or does anything active they change into active wear. Doesn’t matter if you give them sweats and jacket as active wear since it’s not cold wear they’ll freeze to death.
The same problems will occur in the hot summer days cause they won’t be in their hot clothes. Even if their active wear is skimpier then a swimsuit. They’ll get heat stroke after jogging.
If they go swimming they change into swim wear so after a dip if they hang out in their suit they’ll get heat stroke. Which makes no sense.
The other thing that bugs me is once they change into cold clothes they don’t change out of them even after they go inside to their warm house. I don’t want my sims having dinner in a hat and mittens. Or seeing townies in a restaurant in winter gear. I really wish they would’ve just given us outerwear like in previous games, and then added the hot wear category for very hot days. (But still allowed swim wear to be considered okay to wear in hot weather)
We need some tweaking here very badly, it’s a major shame because I adore this EP so much, but the clothing thing doesn’t work at all.
That’s not true . DEPENDING on how you have your everyday clothes you can still wear it in a hot temp. But yeah the changing their clothes does get annoying but my sims doesn’t do it anymore . They change into their everyday when they get into their house.
It is true actually I know it sounds weird but the clothes are set by category not by what it is they’re wearing. If your sim is wearing any clothing category other the the new hot or cold ones they can overheat or freeze. Try putting a sim in a jacket, pants, boots and hat in an everyday wear and then send them out on a cold day to test it if you want. They’ll freeze.
The gurus went over it in the livestream a bit, and I was worried then but seeing it in action now really confirms this doesn’t work. I think I get why they did it, so if you want your sims wearing shorts in the winter they can, as long as you chose it as their cold outfit. I’m okay with that, it gives the player options. But they need to do some thing about the outfits sims automatically change into like athletic and swimwear.
