In s3pe I was actually opening the Fullbuild package files in Program Files for each expansion pack which I must have gleaned from another related tutorial on MTS as I can't imagine knowing on my own where to find those CAS items. But alas, while it seems to have had an effect on some of the package...

I recently learned that I could use s3pe to recategorize store clothes and hair in CAS. In theory this would be invaluable to me, even though it is very time consuming and tedious at the start. I've been following the steps outlined in a tutorial here: https://sims3tutorialhub.tumblr.com/post/177038...

Thanks for trying and thanks for the new link! Yes sorry, I meant blacklist.xml

Hmm, somewhere I thought I had read to move both the invalid package and the blacklist package to the mods folder but looking back on the old instructions I follow from: https://web.archive.org/web/20170915225101/http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Creating+Invalid+Parts+Tuning+the+Easy+Way I see that I was...

I don't usually have trouble with my family trees anymore but if I have unfinished business with a dead sim, I have no qualms about taking a gravestone from the City Hall collection (found via the path above) and dr...

Thank you!

Thank you for responding! But while I have become very familiar with that specific link to Blacklisting, it didn't help at all, or at least it wasn't the process I followed in the first place. Finally I re-searched Chatterbox (which I thought I had thoroughly done) and found someone else linking to ...

I am in the unfortunate position of having had to redownload and rebuild my game after major hard drive trouble. This just took time and I am back in the running with all my mods and worlds in place. The bigger problem is that I don't remember how to create a blacklist using the invalid parts and tu...
