Is there a list of what Expansion/Stuff Packs an item came from?
« on: December 18, 2013, 10:33:29 PM »
Is there a way to get a listing of what Expansion and Stuff Packs an object or clothes came from? Or do I need to check each item individually?

I remember coming across a post in the Swap Shop forums that for the life of me, I can't find again. (That'll teach me not to bookmark something when I come across it)

Anyways, while entering a Create A Sim contest, I needed to list the EP's and Stuff packs I used and I *swear* someone mentioned there was an add on (explicitly not a mod) that would tell you what pack or EP something was from? Am I ringing any bells?

Sorry, I couldn't help you with add on thing as I don’t know about that, but I believe in recent update for The Sims 3 there is a feature that makes us easier to organize things. Just take a look at the pictures and hopefully that you’ll understand.






This is also work with everything else, not limited to clothes and hair though; make sure to check about "filter content" thing beside the lock icon and experiment yourself.

I usually check one by one, as I quite familiar with the icon and what kind of expansion it is. But, "filter content" like what Eld said was something you need to consider as I also don't know about the post that you mentioned about. Sorry. Have you tried searching via Google? Just type this forum and keyword that related to the topic, I.e: I know that somewhere they posting about Hex codes but I forgot, so I just type “hex codes carl and pam” and voila, there’s a thread related to the topic.

I wish that you'll find what are you looking for.

Thanks for your replies. I'm familiar with the filtering method and I have tried searching this forum via Google and the search button. Unfortunately, I can't come up with a specific enough query.

I'll keep looking! Thanks again for your help!

I remember seeing a couple of threads that popped out when some of the earlier expansions came out that showed off the new Create-a-Sim features in the expansion. Not every expansion has one, and they're probably buried in the sub-forums, but maybe that could be worth a look?
