Hi all! First time posting but definitely a long-time simmer starting with Sims 2 (had the first Sims but never played, got a story on that but will save it for another day ? )
Anyway, I have literally tons of CC from all over and some day might even get into modding myself (I was a programmer in a former life) and am in the process of reorganizing my Mods folder for a second time to make it even more manageable. My request has nothing to do with that, but more to do with looking for CC in Buy/Build mode. I know others have mentioned in different posts how much they’d love to see the ability to make custom categories (similar to Collections in Sims 3) and I agree. But I was thinking that maybe it might be possible for someone to create a mod that would either 1) allow us to add custom filters to the Filter option to drill down even more on CC or 2) add a text box to the Filter option that could be used to type in a term (designer name, set name, etc.) This would be similar to the Search function but that way we could actually see all the objects right away. The Search function is nice, but only lists a limited amount of objects and I can’t always find the specific object I’m looking for or can’t find the right “tag” to make it pop up in the Search list.
I looked over various modding tool sites/forums to maybe get a clue on whether or not this is even possible or where to start but couldn’t find anything remotely close. And it may not even be possible or might be way too much work, but maybe someday EA will take pity on those of us who love CC and help us out!
