โ// โ BATTY BATโข ร MORE COLUMNS IN CAS:
Download this if you want to use "Batty Batโข" with "More Columns in CAS".
This is compatible with "More Traits in CAS".
[โ๏ธ] This "SGFX Patch" has special install instructions:
Download both ZIP archives.
Place the "More_CAS_ADDON_FixingCAS.package" patch in the same folder with your "More_CAS_Columns_([X]_Columns).package" variant.
Toss the "#Sej" folder into your "Mods" folder and overwrite all files if/when prompted.
[๐] This benefits from my "CAS Filters" mod:
Enables the "Outfit Category ยป Bathing" filter for items with the "Nude" Outfit Type TAG.
Having access to this filter means you can "easily" find custom content (or EAxis content) TAGGED with the "Outfit Type ยป Nude" in CAS.
[โ๏ธ] The following features are included:
BUGFIX: (ROG) NudePart Override -- https://../posts/125854009
CAS Menu custom layout and category unlocks.
Custom "1-BAT REMOVE ALL" CAS category.
"Automatic Fashion Choice Filtering" fixed on "Hairstyles" category.
"Automatic Fashion Choice Filtering" disabled on "Accessories" category.
"Automatic Fashion Choice Filtering" disabled on "Makeup" category.
"Filter Panel" enabled on (11) additional CAS categories.
"Nude/Bathing Outfit" added to the "Outfit Panel" for all ages.
[EA Fixed] "Subcategory Item List/Array" fixed for "Accessories" category.
[EA Fixed] "Subcategory Item List/Array" fixed for "Makeup" category.

PROJECT MIRRORS -- This awesomeness, but Elsweyr. ๐ฑ
ZIP CONTAINS -- A complete list of this project's archives and files.
โ// โ THIRD-PARTY BODY PART OVERRIDES:
Ensure that third-party body part overrides load AFTER my mod (specifically the BUGFIX).
If my BUGFIX doesn't load BEFORE third-party body part overrides, then you won't benefit from my PARTFLAGS and TAGS fixes that are fine-tuned to address the nonsense EAxis did to our "Nude/Bathing Outfit" in Update 10/22/2024.
In other words, place your third-party body part overrides in a folder that is alphanumerically under/after/below by "#Sej" folder, if you use my "#Sej" folder:
1๏ธโฃ Create a New Folder in your "Mods" folder.
2๏ธโฃ Name it something obvious with a number or special character that places it below my "#Sej" folder but above all other folders in your "Mods" folder:
_BodyPartOverrides
0_BodyPartOverrides
3๏ธโฃ Dump all of your third-party body part overrides into that folder.

โ// โ THIS "PATCH" IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS:
This section is almost identical to the other one in the other patch-post.
โ
In practice, this "SGFX Patch" is simple to install:
Download the things.
Toss the things where they need to go, and overwrite if/when prompted to.
Gwan wit yo bad self. ๐น
I'm only explaining this so that you fully understand why the dates on the (2) ZIP archives sometimes don't match, despite the fact that you need to download both.
โ
"SGFX Patches" are made by first extracting the modified third-party "Scale Form GFX" resource from the third-party mod, then modifying that third-party resource further with my custom modifications.
In simpler words, in this case, I edit one of weebesu's "Scale Form GFX" resources to add my own modifications so that their mod "includes" my mod.
There's no other way to do this and this is how all "SGFX Patches" are made, including those made by other creators who just refer to them as "patches". The only difference is that those creators might ask for permission from the original creator, and I don't. I notify, sometimes, and then I make my patch in such a way that it requires the original third-party mod. My one rule for patching another creator's mod is that my patch always requires their mod to work. If patching their mod means re-sharing their mod completely, then I don't patch it. Those are my "ethics"... that do not apply to "My Beautiful Squishy" because it was "special circumstances". Is okay to feel weird about the way I mod. ๐ฑ
I digress!
Usually when creating an "SGFX Patch" I'd toss the modified third-party resource into the patch PACKAGE along with any other resources that are required so that everything is contained in a single PACKAGE, but... while I could do that for this patch, I have so far chosen not to, and I chose not to, in order to ensure that there are no accidental conflicts with the standalone "Batty Batโข CASMenu Override".
In simpler words, I wanted an "all-in-one" patch that overwrites the standalone variant when installed.
There are (2) ZIP archives containing (4) PACKAGES in total:
๐ More_CAS_ADDON_FixingCAS.package
This is the actual "SGFX Patch".
It is only updated when "More Columns in CAS" is updated, hence the reason the [YYMMDD] date on the ZIP usually doesn't match the date on the other ZIP.
It contains (1/3) "Scale Form GFX" resources seen in the standalone "sej_SGFX_CASteriskos_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA.package" that is used by "More Columns in CAS".
I could have not created this PACKAGE at all, and instead included the modified "Scale Form GFX" resource in "*_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA.package", but then you'd have to ensure that "More Columns in CAS" loaded after my patch, yada, yada, yada, I decided not to go that route.
๐ sej_BUGF_BG_CASNudePartOverride_ROG.package
This is my "CAS Overrides" BUGFIX that fixes PARTFLAGS and TAGS for our hidden EAxis CAS NudeParts and a few other critical EAxis CAS items.
It is identical to the standalone variant and is updated whenever the standalone variant is updated.
๐ sej_CASMenu_BattyBatNomsYerGiblets.package
This is the "Batty Batโข" Tuning override.
It is identical to the standalone variant and is updated whenever the standalone variant is updated.
๐ sej_SGFX_CASteriskos_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA.package
This contains the other (2/3) "Scale Form GFX" resources seen in the standalone "sej_SGFX_CASteriskos_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA.package".
It shares the same filename as the standalone variant so that it overwrites the standalone variant if you have it.
I could have tossed the (2/3) resources contained in here into "More_CAS_ADDON_FixingCAS.package" and just kept this PACKAGE "blank", but I chose not to... For Reasonsโข.
In the future, I might decide to MERGE all (4) PACKAGES into "More_CAS_ADDON_FixingCAS.package" and give you an "IFFIN' YOU GOTHAM" section.
In fact, that might be simpler than doing this the way I'm currently doing it. <SHRUGS> ๐น

Hi,, the sej_SGFX_CASteriskos_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA.package is broken, its break my gallerie, my cas and the game menu :( Edit : Wait, maybe its because ive installed this mod and its conflict ?https://www.curseforge.com/sims4/mods/cas-part-on-hover
Do you any updates on your situation?
hi sej, i honestly have pored over your patreon posts- holy alliteration- for most of last night and some today, trying to get the batty bat x more columns working. my game is version 1.121 (ahoy matey!) and i use a main menu and loading screen override so i had to troubleshoot but i figured it out :3 i honestly love this mod, your cas filters, and all the other stuff you've done; your descriptions are very informative and i find your rants to be interesting too lol. but enough fanboying, because i have one teeeeeeeeny tiny question: is there a way for me to use my CAS background override with this mod? after getting it working, i noticed cas had reverted to that.... *lovely* little gradient. i sincerely apologize if this question has already been answered in another post somewhere- i looked through your fixing cas standalone post and comments and this one but couldn't find anything =w=;; alsoalso, does this work with stand still in cas/shut up in cas/do the harlem shake or whatever in cas -esque mods? i honestly am unsure if the one i'm using was ever working in the first place but thought i'd ask ><
Okay, doing a little testing while you're away to see what about my Batty Bat files is causing my UI to break apart on the main screen. 1- just my Resource file, More Columns in CAS, More_CAS_ADDON_FixingCAS, directly in Mods folder for this purpose, All good. 2-Resource,More Columns, More CAS Addon Fix, Batty Bat, and the Bugfixes BG and SP15 Nude Part Override (ROGs), UI is still good, Batty Bat functions. 3-Okay, so the culprit is in fact likely "sej_SGFX_CASteriskos_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA", which when my mods folder was fully normal, that's what BetterExceptions kept flagging (but I prefer to do 50/50 and so on to narrow down behavior). The file I'm using is the one from this page. I went to its original page (here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/134653412) to read up between here and there to see any basic requirements. Tested with JUST the single file with my resource file in mods. Still broken UI. So. All this to say, this file is breaking my main menu UI (scrambling it around where things aren't navigateable). It makes sense in the sense that we've had some major updates (ugh, so many). So, this is me reporting in. X'D Sorry for the mouthful, I'm not even done yet. I noticed something extra to test once I was fiddling, but as I kept purging, the issue remained. Turns out, with nothing but my Resource file (aka, no mods), swapping the Gender of a Sim........ causes it to pop out of sync with the gender submenu settings. When I swap to female from a generated male, it stays male. And any subsequent flipflop has the opposite gender's "default" settings. Not sure what that's about! Should I report this to the forums? I haven't reported a bug in gods know how long... Prolly since they forced the EA App onto us. Clicking on the Sim randomizer, the resulting Sim would have the logical "defaults" in the submenu. But swapping their gender would yet again throw it out of sync. Now, it doesn't do the actual visible changes, like changing the frame or whatnot. The sim being set to male with out of sync settings would still "look male" as far as the game views it. But... not sure how certain things would react under the hood, like pregnancy, urinating, etc. Since you are the majestic being that has so much experience with the terrible experience that is CAS, I thought I'd let you know and see what you think? Your insight is always super helpful.
Yeah I'm also having the issue of it messing up my main menu!
Is there a patch for Wicked Whims? My female sim-after installing this mod-have white feet that override any socks or stockings and is no longer naked-instead has underwear but no top.
Remove the included BUGFIX package: sej_BUGF_BG_CASNudePartOverride_ROG.package -- WW includes its own NudePart overrides that conflict with mine. I haven't dissected WW recently, so I can't tell you if they've FLAGGED and TAGGED those CAS items properly, but I'll take a look when I get chance and do a patch-fix if necessary.
if it isn't a stupid question, is there any way possible to make an addon for this mod to have the "cc only" filter turned on by default?
Not through Tuning, but maybe through Scale Form GFX. I can take a look when I get chance. Also, I am so sorry it took me this long to reply. I had no internet for a month starting at the end of October 2025, and the notification for this comment got buried.
Hey!! โsej_SGFX_CASteriskos_IsFineIWillFixItMyselfEA.packageโ is broken after the 8/19 update. It glitched my home screen UI and threw a UI exception. Better Exceptions identified this file as the problem. After deleting so I can play, Batty Bat is working but Iโm assuming this is the file that enables editing the nude/bathing outfit because I canโt find that feature anymore.
There was an update?! -GRUMBLES- Okay, gimme a hot... minute.
I wanted to ask if I can use this override (BattyBat + ROG) with MagicBotโs Default HQ Feet?
Yes, however, if you don't see the custom feet in CAS, then you need to ensure their mod loads before mine in order to override my override. If you don't modify your "Resource.cfg", then you can just create a "#DefaultOverrides" folder and pop your feet and any other nude body part overrides in there. If I'm not mistaken, that should make them load before mine. If EAxis ever fixes our NudeParts, then I will remove the overrides, but it's been like this for years, so I'm not holding my breath.
