I don't think people know just how much simply commenting 'so good. part 2?' on a fic isn't as nice of a comment as they think it is
Was the double-digit thousand word, hand crafted, meticulously written fic I spent weeks upon weeks on and offered you for absolutely free not sufficient? All we care about is a part two?
Can we not take a second to appreciate what I'm showing you first before you toss it aside to beg for more? 'More' that I will not be giving because if I was going to add more to my ending, I would have done so initially?

Updated 2026/04/14. Fixed errors. Recatagorized some outfits because these aren't compatable with recategorizing mods. (Coats and formal clothes added to outerwear and formal respectively, gym clothes moved to the gym category, sportbikinis removed from underwear.) TAF swimwear has had colour changes for better diversity. Added a tl;dr to help people who's reading comprehension is not capable of reading my longass post.
(Precise swatches will be coming with this update, but later, because I'm really tired. I've taken the photos, just need to process them.)
Updated 2026/04/01. Fixed errors. Seperated private school girls' uniform (at bottom of this post)

Okay here it is. I've been working on this for two years I think. Here is a default replacement of the textures of every single clothing item in basegame, uni, and night life. This is for the Pleasant Prism Challenge, where the world is entirely greyscale except certain coloured accents.
(Find more downloads for the Pleasant Prism Challenge here.)
TL;DR Important Info
Do not hit the in-game delete button on any of these, it'll corrupt your game files and you'll have to reinstall the entire game.
Files, esp BG, are really big
Not compatible with recategorizers (have been incorporated)
Compatible with mesh-only defaults
Coloured clothes are disabled for random, greyscale ones are enabled for random
Premade sims may be wearing an outfit that I hid instead of recolouring so they won't look right. Just change the outfit.
CTF private school uniform is in its own package as there's choices. Check the bottom of this post for it.
Want to hide other EPs and SPs? Check the bottom of this post for my complementary hiders.
More details and supplementary mod recommendations under the cut.
Download Giant Files: Basegame | Uni | Nightlife
Many clothes are grey. Other clothes have mono colour accents. For every age and gender combination, there should be at least one garment of each of the colours in Episims's colour traits mod. These garments have been modified to have only the one colour, all other parts have been greyscaled to the best of my photoshopping ability. Here's a sampling of some of the colour-accented outfits:
Some of them are unchanged from Maxis. Others are modified to grey out some parts, others have had the colour changed or brightened. (Do note in this image there's a couple greyscale items—the hula skirt and the two woman's underwear at the bottom. Don't go blind trying to figure out what's coloured on them.)
Info: Flags [Random Enabling]
All coloured items have had their flags changed to be DISABLED FOR RANDOM but still visible in CAS or to purchase at a clothing rack. For this reason, I very heavily recommend this mod. This removes the custom content icon and prevents you from being able to accidently hit the delete button. If the any of these defaulted EAxis items are deleted in game, it will corrupt your game files and you will need to reinstall the entire game.
Because the flags are changed, it also moves most of the coloured items to the front of the catalogue. This may be preferred by some of you.
Greyscale items are all enabled as random. For my sims who have a favourite colour, I use Pescado's clothing too to pick coloured items for them to wear, usually trying to pick coloured versions of the greyscale items they aged up into (but that's just how I like to do it). Here's links to the clothing tool based on your EP (use the one for the most recent ep you have, for Ultimate Collection that's Apartment Life, for Super Collection that's Bon Voyage). Apartment Life, Free Time, Bon Voyage, Seasons, Pets, OFB, Nightlife, University.
I supplement this with the free version of the cheaper clothes mod so my colour-enjoying sims do not have to pay big bucks to enjoy colours.
As you know, some EAxis outfit categories don't have a lot of options. This means that colour-enjoying sims may find that options are limited in some categories in their preferred colour. I tried to diversify as much as possible.
Info: Recategorization
These are not compatible with recategorizers. I've incorporated some aspects of some based on my preference.
Generally, outfits with Jackets have been added to the outerwear category, formal clothes (female suits, toddler tuxes + dresses) have been also added to the formal category, while gym clothes have been moved to the gym category, with the exception of a couple uni outfits which remain also in everyday. I've also added some child clothes to the athletic category so that they have something to wear other than that default outfit that I can't find the textures for so I can't greyscale it. A couple CM outfits have been unisexed, as have some PF and PM outfits.
If you have seasons installed, I'm not sure what's gonna happen to the items that should be flagged as outerwear. I can't playtest the recategorized outerwear because I haven't gotten to Seasons yet in my LEPacy.
Info: Hiders
On clothes with lots of varients, if I found that some options either looked too similar greyscaled or the textures were not cooperating when I tried to partial greyscale, then I hid them. These clothes are likely to be worn by premade sims (and your sims if you install this into an existing save). Just use pescacdo's clothing tool (linked above) to change them. In a brand new clean save, these clothes will never exist because they're disabled for random and hidden in CAS.
One of the AM tuxes refuses to hide. There's two copies of it and I can't hide either one. I've given up agonizing over it. In game it's the fullbody white one; in the files (umbody) it's tuxaqualepel. (You can find it in the casies.) It's only this one AM tux that doesn't work, the rest (other colours and ages) all work as desired.
Info: Mesh Replacements
I have not touched any meshes, and only touched the TXMT for one pair of af jeans. Those particular jeans might have problems with a mesh replacement, but it probably depends on the mesh. Everthing else should be fully compatible with mesh replacements as long as the mesh replace doesnt include an override for texture image (TXTR) or property sets (GZPS). I use these default meshes for preg morphs.
Wrapping Up!
Here's the last of the photos I took, featuring the littles (actually, it's these adults deaged. They've been through a lot.)
This is a huge project. This means that despite being on Major Version Number 3 and having just spent many hours fixing everything (on today Tuesday April 14, 2026), there's probably still errors.
I think I've fixed everything. But I probably haven't. If you encounter an issue (especially of the game crashing variety), please let me know and I'll do my best to fix it!

CF & TF Private School Uniform
The above download does not include this. I've seperated the girls' (child & teen female) private school uniforms because there's two choices. The standard (blue) outfit and the rebel version are both fully greyscale. The red and green versions are exactly the same except they have red and green socks respectively. This is the solid version. The gradient version gives the red and green socks a gradient intended to help the colour comply better with the colours used in @rudhira's private school uniform colour mod. The standard uniform and the rebel one does not change between these two versions.
These two versions are also each with two binning options: one hides all the girls' school uniforms from CAS/shopping rack/random (the file called CAShidden), and the other doesn't do that (and does the standard for the rest of these items, the grey ones are random-enabled, the coloured ones are random-disabled but still visible for manually selection).
You can only have one of these private school girls' uniform defaults.

Complementary Hiders
You may want to hide all the clothes from the other eps (because EP selection through RPG starter doesn't hide the EPs' CAS items). Because EAxis is silly, they reactivated basegame clothes multiple times in some EPs and SPs. This means hiders for those EPs and SPs will also hide much of the BG clothing. I've edited those hiders to not do that.
Download my edited hiders.
Supplement them with the original clothing hiders for Bon Voyage, Free Time, Apartment Life, Kitchen and Bath, and Teen Style Stuff.
That TSS link also shows you Almighty_Hat's post that links every single hider known to Sims 2 kind, so you can use it as a reference to help you hide anything you'd like. For K&B, you'll find the file for "everything" AND the file for "camisole" as everything doesn't include the camisole. Some items resist hiding. Try Almighty_Hat's stubborn stragglers (also at the TSS link).
Credits
Extra credits and shoutout to Jordi from MTS and Almighty_Hat whose hiders I used as a base to edit the flags on the random-disabled items. Additional credit to @loosiap whose Default Tux (clone) I used as a reference to get the files I needed to altering the flags. I referenced these recategorizors when doing my own recategorization and merged most of the code with my own: women's suits, formal toddlers, and outerwear.
Probably more credits are due to other people for various tutorials and templates that I've neglected to remember. Credits to EA/Maxis for the original content and the game. Credits to Simpe for letting me do any of this at all. Credits to iCad for giving me the original idea for playing a Pleasantville Challenge.
Also, if anyone else is like this is an awesome project and I want to be part of it, feel free to! Anything you greyscale can be added to the Pleasent Prism Directory.
I’m going to a convention this weekend! I’ve brought my tablet with me in a moment of ballsy overestimation how how much free time and energy I will have while away.
That said~ I’ll still be answering questions at night, even if I can’t find time to draw.

lschmitt62 replied to your post “Everyone previously bitching about EW’s event and saying they were...”
I complained about that ticket debacle. I did a screen shot were my tickets were processing and then their server crashed. If I hadn't made it that far I would have shit the fuck up and chalked it up to
I got through to input info and hit submit too and got nothing but a white screen but like......this literally happens for any fandom trying to get a small number of tickets with thousands of people trying to get in. People on twitter said they had the page open on three different devices, too, and still wonder how the site crashed? Probably because hundreds of people were using the same address on every device they owned at the same time! This happens every time a fandom has a ticketed exclusive event like this, no matter what website they use, there are going to be problems.
They owed us nothing. It’s a free event for EW subscribers. It was a perk. They said the seats were filled and people got emails the following day confirming. That happens a lot. Look at Nerd HQ tickets, people having the tickets in their cart and then disappearing, SDCC tickets, Funko Fundays tickets, literally name an exclusive thing youve ever tried to get tickets for and you’ll see dozens of people complaining about the website crashing, problems, errors, etc.
It. always. happens.
Some people were lucky and some weren’t. That’s how it always goes. I hit ‘request my seats’ with my info put in a dozen times to no avail. Didn’t work. Oh well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ No need to berate Starz or EW over it. No point in complaining or screenshotting how far you got in the process to prove you were right there, because you were right there but you weren’t lucky enough to get through like others, so you didn’t get tickets. That happened to what seems like hundreds of other people, too. That’s how it works. The thing sold out. EW tweeted and said it was sold out. People still expected more than that? What else needs to be said?
every aspergers test: how good are you at reading between the lines, can you tell what people 'really' mean when they speak, can you tell what people's real intentions are me, a person who didn't know people did that: you mean. people. don't just mean what they literally say. test: do you take everything said to you very literally me: welp
ok i wanted to write a little more on seeing red (aka the famous double whammy attempted assault and stray bullet bury your gays episode), as a first time btvs viewer who has now finished season 6.
the thing is that i get the narrative intent of the two major things that happened in this episode: there needed to be a catalyst for spike to seek out his soul, and there needed to be a catalyst to finally tip willow over that edge she's been teetering on all season. both of these are solid narrative directions, and ones i generally like in terms of what's been built up for both of these characters. i'm not going to pretend this episode never happened, because it did, and to do so would sanitize complex characters who make bad choices, which is kind of the bread and butter of this show.
the way those narrative points are arrived at, however, are terrible, and could have been achieved in other ways. those two things, specifically, did not need to happen — and they are reflective of certain biases of a creative team working on a show originally created and executive-produced by joss whedon; he may not have been the showrunner in season 6, but his stamp is still all over this show, always. those biases are certainly not rearing their ugly heads in this show for the first time in this episode, but this is where they're arguably most egregious.
on an in-story level, this is what we're working with to carry those story beats forward. on a real-world level, there was no reason for these things to exist in the story, and other writers could have, and would have, found a way to achieve those narrative beats without being steeped in a particular kind of cruelty.
