clothes category issue
Hello? I kind of need help with something and thought this would be my last resort, since all FAQ Q&As everywhere about this are from an ancient while ago..
(I'll type the issue in case anyone has any idea on how to solve it).
So basically, I restyled multiple of my sims, but unfortunately most of the restyling - makeup, clothes, hair, extras, all of them are mods of course- went under the clothing category of "swimwear." I was hoping to find an idea to change the category of that from swimwear to every day. Thanks in advance.
And yes, I'm on sims 4.
Hello! To clarify, you created a bunch of new styles / outfits for your sim but they're all in the Swimwear category. Now you want to copy each outfit and add them to your Everyday category. Is that correct? If so, there is not a way to do that without using a cheat or a mod. Note that if you're playing on console, using cheats like this will disable trophies and achievements and mods are not available. :-( However, if you're on PC or Mac and you don't mind using a cheat, then you can find detailed information about the copy outfit cheat at the below link.

It's a bit complicated and it took me a bit to understand so here are the basics for your situation. First, you must be in Live mode and have your sim selected as the active sim. Then, you need to know the Target Category number (Everyday = 0), the Source Category number (Swimwear = 9) and the Source Outfit number (0 = 1st outfit, 1 = 2nd outfit, 2 = 3rd outfit etc.). Once you figure that out, then you would insert those numbers into this string:
outfits.copy_outfit [Category ID, target] [Category ID, source] [Slot 0-4, source]
So, let's say you want to copy your 1st Swimwear outfit to your Everyday category.
[Category ID, target] Everyday = 0
[Category ID, source] Swimwear = 9[Slot 0-4, source] 1st outfift = 0
The cheat would look like this.
outfits.copy_outfit 0 9 0
Once you have all the outfits copied to your Everyday (or whichever category you choose; see the full list of numbers at the link above), then you can go back into CAS and delete them from the Swimwear Category. Keep in mind that you only have 5 outfit slots per category and this cheat will use one slot per outfit. Once you max out the slots, you won't be able to add any more outfits to that category. I hope this helps! If you have any trouble, just come back and update here.
