Thank you so much. If EA had any decency, they would pay you for cleaning up their mess, not that they ever will. So I hope our gratitude will go some way towards making up for that.

I can report to you that I have every EP installed and all Stuff packs apart from Celebration and H&M. This dress still shows up for me although it is at the very end of the catagory as opposed to a few pages in as it appears in your screenshot.

For those of us with all EPs and all SPs it doesn't appear to be.

Lord Darcy fixes again! Thanks, again! I imagine Eaxis is saving huge piles of cash by hiring inept dopes who will work for chump change. I cannot imagine any educated programmer building code based on an obsolete version of a program when an updated/patched version exists, and I can't program anything more complex than BASIC on an old Commodore 64. Sheesh... apparently, EA programmers are not much higher up the skill ladder than me...

Wow! They sure weren't paying attention in a lot of these, were they? A lot of silly mistakes they have made with these. maybe they are getting tired of sims 2.
thanks for fixing this, bringing it up again for us!

As I stated in the main post, there are two identical copies for the default wedding dress. For no reason at all, Seasons hid the original version from CAS and included the second cloned version. But Celebration reactivated original version, and hid the cloned version from CAS. So, if you have Seasons but don't have Celebration, the cloned version is still activated even after you installed KBID. That's why I said it depends on EP/SP combination you've got.

I took the screenshot in YACAS, to show that this dress is now enabled for YAs as well. Dresses after the wedding dress are only available for YAs, unless you have clothing unlockers like Windkeeper's Unlocked University outfits.

I understand what you were saying. I was merely posting so that other people with the same configuration as myself would know that they do not need this wonderful fix.

I don't think I'm missing veil hairs in my game. (2 from Celebration, 1 from GLS) K&B doesn't alter base game hairs, anyway.

Those outfits show up fine for me. K&B has nothing to do with them.

AFAIR those outfits are NOT from base game, but from Holiday Stuff pack. I can't remember whether they're from 2005 or 2006 version though. Have you uninstalled and reinstalled your game lately, and forgotten to reinstall Holiday pack? This pack can be very easily missed, as outfits from this pack don't bear any icon in BodyShop/CAS thumbnails, making them indiscernible from base game contents.

Yes, actually I did recently reinstall my game. I just got K&B and OFB and for some reason when I tried to install them into my Bon Voyage based game, the installer would say my game wasn't installed corrently (meanwhile it worked better than it does now)!

I could have sworn I installed the Holiday pack , but I will double check tonight. Thanks for the quick reply!

Default Updated to v1.01
2008-09-01: Updated to v1.01. Hides the redundant clone of the default wedding dress included in Seasons.

Like previous EPs/SPs, the default wedding dress is still disabled for YAs in AL. You need this fix (or similar clothing mods) to enable it for YAs.
If you were already using this fix for K&B, remove the old version from K&B Skins folder, and install the new version under the AL Skins folder.
