How to enable CAS items for different categories
For those that don’t know, you can easily enable clothing, shoes, and other CAS parts for different categories. For example, earlier I saw someone looking for heels enabled for sleepwear. So I’ll use these Madlen Siracusa shoes, and enable them for sleepwear.
Find the package of the item you want to recategorize, and open it with S3PE.
Highlight the CASP component by clicking it once, and then click on the Grid button down at the bottom of the panel.
A new pane will open up. Click on ClothingCategory, which expands the list of available categories. Find “Sleepwear" in the list, which is currently set to false.
Double-click Sleepwear, so that it now says “True”
Click Commit, at the bottom right of the pane.
Save your package, and plop it ingame. Voila, sleepwear enabled shoes. You can use this to enable hairs for different genders, accessories for different age groups, shoes, clothing, whatever, for different categories. Or disable them, as heavensims very rightly mentioned!
Edit to add: S3PE is “sims 3 package editor”, and can be found at Simlogical here: http://www.den.simlogical.com/denforum/index.php?topic=189.0
The Windows easy installer version is the one I used to install it.
