Wardrobe Wrangler Released!

[jfade]

For those of you who have been following this for a while or who maybe have no bloody clue what I'm talking about, the Wardrobe Wrangler has finally been officially released! It's basically a tool that allows you to edit all of your CAS items, doing things like changing the everyday flags of an item, color binning hair, setting genetic strength of eyes and skin tones, and more. If you wish to check it out, head on over!

Yeehaaw! Wardrobe Wranglin' begins.

Congrats Jfade! How exciting.

I'm really enjoying the cat humour in the manual and the programme writing history in the 'About'. Sitting in class coding because you were so goddam bored in a computing intro class.

>_> 

This thread moved, didn't it?.....

Anyways..  this is perfect for what I've been needing.  Awesome stuff jfade.   

[LizzyJ]

I have an issue... Is there a reason I'm getting an error when opening hair files? It says to get the log file, but I have no idea where that's located. I read the manual and am still lost!

[witch]

Hey Lizzie. I think jfade's crashed at the moment. I had a problem too. Try reloading your files. That worked for me.

The log file is in the folder where you installed the Wrangler.

[LizzyJ]

I looked in that file witch, but I'm clueless. I was looking for log.txt, is it something else?

[witch]

If you got jfade's installer, you could try looking in c:\ program files\Wardrobe Wrangler \ LogFile.txt
I don't know that that's where he puts it but it seems likely.

If you got the one you just run from a folder, look at the folder where you put the zip file and find LogFile.txt

This file is just for jfade to suss out why it is playing up. It won't help you get the Wrangler going again.

I have been watching the forum for the final copy before installing. So going to put it in and try it out this week.

Good Simming,

I love the townify feature.  I've been manually townifying most clothes I download, and I can do that pretty fast, but this will be much easier and faster.  There are other things I've never bothered trying to townify; mainly eyebrows since there are so damned many resources to fix.

What does townifying mean?

[cyperangel]

I went about townifying alll my clothes, but had to delete the ones done, and redo from a backup, as my game kept crashing when i tried to load lots or CAS after the townifying had been done. Once i redid from the backup, i could load everything again, so something went wrong.
Also, I categorized some 120 odd downloads of jewelry as jewelry, all set as available anywhere. But when my sim heads out to shop for blingbling, only around 20 shows up.... The rest just went poof.

What does townifying mean?

"Townifying" only changes some properties in the GZPS, so that those items appear without the custom content marker, thus making them available in the townies clothing pool.

Cyperangel, did you try deleting the CasThumbnails.package file?

[Inge]

I see!  Thank you

Nope, can't say I did. Will that help on the bugged out loading, or the missing jewelry?

Well, I wouldn't recommend going through and doing everything at once anyhow, take things in batches, so that if something does go wrong you know exactly where and can narrow it down easily.

With regards to the jewelery, you only used the bins listed in the jewelery section at the bottom of the tab, right? If you use some of the other recommended bins up above that it won't work.

[cyperangel]

I only used the ones at the bottom, left earring, and necklaces and bracelet to be precise.

Well, it should work then... Not sure what would cause it to NOT work...

I've had this problem (the game or Body Shop crashing when I tried to load clothes) with stuff from TSR that I modified with Wardrobe Wrangler. My advice is to change clothing in small batches and to not change anything from TSR.

I have been waiting for this nifty little unit to be released.  I really like things to be in order, so this program seems perfect.  Thanks!  And, now that I've learned about Townifying, I'll be making sure the townies have something decent to wear.  I love this site! 

[trillkey]

This may be a total noob question, but I need some clarification on binning hairs. I have all the hairstyles on the left, and then on the bottom right of the window I can scroll to the right to get to the other files included in that hairstyle. In the ones that are properly binned, I can see that the second-to-last file is binned in grey and the rest are brown (for example). So what I'm understanding is that those 6 files are the different age groups for that hairstyle. Does that mean that when I bin hairs the second-to-last file needs to be put in grey, and the rest in the right colour? What about those hairstyles which don't include all age groups? Is there a way to tell which one should go in grey?

I've noticed that TSR FA items makes the program hang big time. I tried to change the category on something of xandhers, loaded BS, and it crashed when I tried to select it. So WW+TSR FA=Bad

Where did you get these items from? TSR itself, or PMBD? TSR originals contain spyware which may disrupt functioning, and may also have bad compression.
