There are currently (4) Add-Ons available for BASE GAME:

• "EF16BodysuitPride" conversion from TOPS to FULL BODY. (x2)

• "TightsFootlessCropped" conversion from TIGHTS to BOTTOMS. (x2)

• "SkinnyLeather" layer reconfiguration to hide tall boots. (x2)

• TBA...

• I need to rope my "pedicure" mod into this. Don't go looking for it, it needs updating.

⋆⋅ NOTICE MY ATTACHMENTS, SENPAI:

⋆⋅ I FIGURED OUT "CAS FILTERS" WHILE MAKING THESE:

🌟 CAS Filters - https://../posts/126616540

⋆⋅ UNDERSTANDING MY CAS ADD-ONS:

My Add-Ons usually include things like custom Swatches or re-categorized conversions of items, etc. Sometimes I also modify Meshes, like with fingernails - I have a thing for fingernails apparently. EAxis has made such a mess of fingernail meshes, you don't even know!

These things often get made while I'm doing my "CAS Overrides" for a content release.

It's usually basic stuff. I am not a "CAS Creator", so don't get too excited.

If I see an item missing a frame variant, age variant, or a texture, etc., and I can do it, I'll do it.

Most of my Add-Ons will contain referenced resources (meshes and/or textures) that either require the pack the Add-On is for, or the BASE GAME. I do this whenever applicable in order to achieve the smallest file size possible because storage isn't free and we should not waste it.

In the future I might do age conversions of clothes, shoes, accessories and hair, etc. I know how to (thanks to my Blenderific anonymous friend), but we're not going there yet.

⋆⋅ HOW I ACHIEVE PARTFLAG PERFECTION:

I configure my "standalone" CAS items the same way I configure my "CAS Overrides".

This means that "Restrict Opposite Gender" and "Restrict Opposite Frame" flags have been disabled on all TOPS, BOTTOMS, FULL BODY, and sometimes SHOES (but never FEET). Each of these items are also configured with the correct "Fashion Choice" flag that matches the "Physical Frame" the item was made for.

The result is:

• All items are unlocked/unrestricted for all sims regardless of their "Gender" and "Physical Frame" combinations.

• Items made for/with the Feminine Frame will appear under the Feminine "Fashion Choice" filter and vice versa for items made for/with the Masculine Frame and the Masculine "Fashion Choice" filter.

• Your "Clothing Preference" in CAS controls which items randomize onto your sim, so be sure to select the "Clothing Preference" in CAS that matches your preferred clothing preference for that sim. This isn't a "my mods" thing, this is how you should use this option in CAS. My mods rely on this option being used properly.

Unlike my "CAS Overrides", I configure all of my "standalone" CAS items to show under almost all "Outfit Categories". I do this because I find it extremely tedious to have to remove the category filter whenever I want to wear something from a different category.

No "Allow For Random" means you never have to worry that items that don't quite "fit in" with the category will ever randomly appear on anysim.

I don't care about real-world "fashion stereotypes". I care that you know what you're wearing and that you're wearing clothes that match your "Physical Frame" to avoid "deformities" in the crotch, neck, or spine.

I also don't care that my Male / Feminine Frame "transframe" sim appears to have breasts when wearing "frame-appropriate" clothes that are made for the Feminine Frame. If the breasts bothers you, you have the freedom to select the Masculine "Clothing Preference" in CAS (to ensure randomization matches your clothing preferences) and wear clothing that appear under the Masculine "Fashion Choice" filter.

It's like going to a clothing store and seeing the "Men's section" and the "Women's section" and having the freedom to buy anything from either section regardless of your assigned [X] at birth. That's how simple the way I do PartFlags makes everything.

Isn't it brilliant?! 🙀

Yes. It is! 😹

I feel the need to explain this because of recent events in [X].

Also, you can totally dissect/open my items in Sims 4 Studio and take a look at my PartFlags and TAGS, and try them out on your items. You can also ask a question about my PartFlags if you don't understand why I did something or didn't do something.

I don't bite, unless biting is the appropriate response.

I apologize if the first draft of this section sounds a bit... aggressive. I will try to refine it in the future, or not. We'll see.

Class is in session, starting with this release. Cheers!

⋆⋅ CONTAINS (0) TS4SCRIPT + (4) PACKAGES:

This is a simple "standalone" CAS item. This should NEVER contain TS4SCRIPT, BATCH files, EXE files, or anything other than PACKAGE files and my "#Sej" folder.

This section exists as a reminder that we are in someone's crosshairs. Rogue TS4SCRIPT, BATCH files, EXE files, etc., encountered where they don't belong could contain malicious PYTHON script or other !@#$ that will attempt to infect your device and steal your personal information when executed by you or the game. Malware can ruin lives. Don't !@#$ around.
