Automatic daily changing of clothes

[Ancient Sim]

My Sims tend to wear the same clothes until they reach middle-age, then I put them into somethng a little more toned-down, although I don't always remember, which is why I once had a 64-year-old wandering around with a radio or whatever it is attached to his hip.  I keep thinking about changing them regularly, but never actually remember to do it.  If there was an option within the game to do so, I'm sure I'd take advantage of it.

...and sims thus stick with only one uniform, like normal sane people do.

So you only have one set of clothes? Even Bart Simpson has a Sunday best!! (Which is another great idea for a mod, but I just have them change in to their best clothes when stuff like that happens)

On the subject of automatically changing clothes....how about a hack to change toddlers into everyday outfits after they are taken out of the crib or after they have had a bath or a diaper change?  (Assuming it's daytime, that is....)  I get so sick of seeing my toddlers crawling around in pj's all day long.  The game is smart enough to do this for kids and older, surely it couldn't be that hard to do for toddlers as well?

For teens and older, I'm pretty much in agreement with what Pescado said.  It's a lot easier to identify particular Sims at a distance if you already know what they are supposed to be wearing.

I try to do the same thing, especially after they've settled down and had a couple of kids....

This would suggest a downloads folder of un-awesomely massive size.

Oh, I do have a downloads folder of un-awesomely massive size. But the alternative - Maxis outfits, eek! - is much, much worse.

While it isn't automatic, someone requested that I do a hack that makes it so that when you take a shower or bath, you have the option to either change appearance or clothing or both immediately afterwards. I'm still experimenting, but I think I can do it, so I'm working on that now.

The latest Insimenator has an menu on the 'sim' version where you can click on a sim (including toddlers) and change their clothes without sending them to a wardrobe/changing table.

the controlled sim, on morning, when wakeup, shoud  go to the closet, play the "thinking animantion", and then change his cloth my randomizing the once that the playre have purchased, oviously just the "everyday" only...

that what i think.
something like "in russia closet change you" (on the morning/when you bath)

Well, I've already got that, so what's a few dozen more .package files among friends?

That would be great if there were a way to get rid of the garbage clothes that sims acquire via age transitions and move ins.  Unfortunately once an item is in your sim's wardrobe, it stays there for ever.  I've played multi-generational lots (such as Legacy lots) - you should see the garbage piled up in their wardrobes.

I think what we need is a Body Shop that actually lets you edit sims and their wardobes instead of just make custom junk.

I have Fat D's Clothes Controller from MTS2 which enables you to choose what type of clothes a sim automatically changes in to wherever the controller is placed. 

Its a step closer to what you're asking for.

That's the "formal" outfit. I, personally, however, have an entire wardrobe full of exactly the same thing that I wear everywhere, much like a sim that wears an outfit that qualifies as "normal" and "formal" at the same time.

[rohina]

Those tie-dyed t-shirts just go with everything, eh?

[J. M. Pescado]

That sounds more like ugly Rohina-wear than anything I'd wear. With a butt as ugly as yours, nobody even notices.

[rohina]

Come on. They don't see my butt because it is

a) covered by long flowing hippie skirts, and
b) covered by my long flowing hair.

[J. M. Pescado]

b) covered by my long flowing hair.

We really did not need to be reminded about your butt-hair.

[rohina]

I know. You are clearly fascinated by it.

It's hard not to be fascinated by butt-hair as freakishly noticeable as it was in your avatar. Like a train wreck, you just have to stare.

[rohina]

ARE YOU HITTING ON ME?

[J. M. Pescado]

ARE YOU HITTING ON ME?

Absolutely not. Staring at the freak is in no way indicative of attraction. Besides, you're not my type. Too Rohina.

Hello Adrian Monk.

[DrBeast]

I'm pretty sure Monk wouldn't handle any blood and/or gore on his clothes

Isn't there already some way to  change their attributes (like eyes, hair, etc) inside the game?
