Would changing CAS filters mark Sims as CC?

Post by OCD-ROM » January 31st, 2023, 4:45 pm

This might be confusing, but if I were to create a household and, for example, use female hair on a male sim, if I exported the household to allow other players to download the household to use in their own game, would that male sim still have female hair? Would it be marked as CC in-game and be changed to a random hairstyle?

Sorry if this has been asked before, I tried to search for the answer and couldn't find anything!

Any data you change with MC, including their hair and outfits, will remain without MC as you see so they should still have the hair and outfits in someone else's game. The issue would be when they tried to edit these Sims in CAS or Stylist that the hair would revert without MC and the correct settings.

No, if you share a household normally NO CC is really in that sims3package, only let's say the instance number of the item, so the game knows what installed file to display.
The user must have the same items of clothes, hair, makeup, accessories etc. installed,
otherwise the ones they don't hav,e like your custom CC, will be exchanged by the game with something else from this category

The hair which you mean has it set in the package CASP if both gender can wear it.
You could offer the links to the CC content hair, so people can choose if they wanna use them.

And your settings in Mastercontroller for CAS have nothing to do with household exports, it is only in your game.
But you can give a note that you use it.

I just wanted to clarify, the hair itself is not CC. It might be base game or from an expansion pack. I just wanted to make sure if I disabled the clothing filters for my game, and I put female hair on a male sim (as an example) that's from the base game or expansion, if it would transfer over successfully for someone who downloaded the Sim.

no, as I said in my previous post it will not transfer,
and will be exchanged by another random hair.

Only if the player also uses MC with this setting, it will stay.
Mastercontroller does not change the object item itself which you have installed (EA or CC does not matter),
it only changes it in this save where you have that setting, if you switch that off, I would suggest then the female hair will be exchanged soon, the latest when your enter CAS or Stylist again.

I assume that disabling the clothing filters will end up with the same result? I saved a Sim wearing a bathing suit as an Everyday outfit, loaded a new world, reset the clothing filters to EA standard, and the sim still seems to be wearing the bathing suit?

Update: I deleted NRAAS from the files and started a new save. The Sim was still there wearing the bathing suit and did not change, although I did not go into CAS mode. So clothing filters seem to remain unchanged regardless of mod status.

Any data you change with MC, including their hair and outfits, will remain without MC as you see so they should still have the hair and outfits in someone else's game. The issue would be when they tried to edit these Sims in CAS or Stylist that the hair would revert without MC and the correct settings.

This is exactly what I wanted to know, thank you!
