How To: Remove the CC Star from Bodyshop Content
Quite a few people have asked how I managed to remove the CC Star (*) from my conversion outfits and instead of repeating myself to the select few who ask I decided to write up a guide instead.
Why do we want to bother removing the CC Star you ask? Well some of us plain hate the CC Star to begin with, but a practical reason would be because the creation actually requires a particular EP and will not work without it. I don't suggest doing this for outfits that use an EP's mesh as a simple recolor is a very common thing and taking the time to remark the outfit implies that something is special about the outfit. The BEST time to remark an outfit would be when it is a
texture referencing outfit. Age conversions would also be appropriate as well.
Ok, so how do we do it? Easy, open up your outfit's package in SimPE. We need to edit three fields, commit and save and that's it!
First, find the creator(dtString) and replace the long block of random characters with 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
Second, find the version(dtUInteger) and the product(dtUInteger) lines and replace whatever is in them with the one from the EP or SP you would like the outfit to be marked as. See table below for values.
