SimWardrobe or Paladin's Place is the home of many useful user created tools for The Sims and The Sims 2, up to and including Apartment Life. 'Paladin' created the site in 2001, but the site was not updated after October 2nd, 2008. However, most links still function. In late June, 2011, the site became unavailable for a while, but is operating again as of mid-July, 2011.
The site also features 'fixes' for Maxis created bugs, custom objects and a few lots. It also featured custom objects for The Sims, which were located in three "lofts" that used free hosting services. Only "Loft 2" still functions, but it no longer allows the objects to be downloaded.
There is an option to donate money to the site through Paypal, though it is unknown if they will reach the owner.
Clicking the 'Support' button on the site takes you to what was the SimLogical forum. Clicking on the button loads a page which notes that 'Paladin' is retired and that support is not available.
A notable tool from SimWardrobe is the Hack Conflict Detection Utility which can detect any hacks and mods for The Sims 2 that may conflict with each other, but may not detect conflicts with the game.
Availability
Downloadable content on the site does not require registration and is free as long as it was not re-posted elsewhere.
Advertisements
The site features many in-line ads by Google.
Tools and mods
The Sims
These tools do not require installation other than being extracted to a folder. However, since they are older programs, some require extra Visual Basic files which may not be present.
SimWardrobe
The site's namesake program. This tool, for Hot Date and later, allows players to change the clothes of a playable Sim or townie. All clothing types can be changed. The player will be able to select which type of clothing to change, and will be able to scroll though a list of available meshes for that type.
This tool can also be used to change a Sim's body type.
SimMetamorphoser
This tool allows players to change the head skin of a playable Sim or townie, which cannot be done in-game. (Note that it may not see Maxis head skins inside Maxis FAR files.)
It can also change a Sim's first name. It can also change a Sim's gender and skin tone, but cannot change any aspect of the Sim's appearance other than the head.
NPC Replacer
This tool allows players to extract NPC character files from the Maxis FAR files, and change the clothes and head of those NPCs.
SimCategorizer
This tool allows players to change the price of an object, control where it appears in the catalog, and select which available community areas it will be available in. Players can also edit the description.
It can extract individual object files from a FAR file. (Note that this does not remove the file from the FAR.) It can even edit object files inside FAR files, though editing Maxis FAR files is not recommended. Players should note that object files in The Sims may contain multiple objects, and SimCategorizer cannot properly edit these files.
SimWallCat
This tool allows players to change the name, price, and catalog description of custom walls and floors.
Lot Manager
This tool allows players to copy lots from one neighborhood to another, or to copy lots to and from a storage location.
FAR Out
This is a tool for managing FAR files. It allows players to view FAR files and, extract individual files from them. It also allows players to create and manage their own FAR files. Players should use caution when viewing Maxis FAR files, as FAR Out does not protect them from changes, and files should not be added to or removed from Maxis FAR files.
The Sims 2
Hack Conflict detection utility
This tool allows players to scan their mods for The Sims 2 to see if any conflict with one another.
NPC Replacer
This tool allows players to select an NPC and change his or her default clothes. For example, a cow mascot could be changed into a bull mascot, if a bull suit was available.
Sims 2 Categorizer
This tool allows players to change the price of an object and control where it appears in the catalog. Players can also edit the description, and can change what the catalog says about motive effects. Note that changing what the catalog says about motive effects will not change the way the object affects motives.
