This entry is very important. This controls what the item is grouped with so that the game knows if you can have more than one of this particular item on the Sim at the same time or not. For example, you could have a sim wearing lipstick (0x0A) and eye shadow (0x07) simultaneously, but not two different shades of lipstick simultaneously. This can be beneficial in giving the ability to layer two different kinds of face paint, for example, but can be very easily abused, and has been recently by some creators. For example, with the [[XMOL]] resource, which is formatted similarly, creators have binned custom accessories differently so that a Sim can wear a pair of glasses and necklace at the same time. However, some have also been abusing it by randomly making up numbers or by not following Maxis standards when it would make sense to. For example, one creator had their pair of custom glasses binned differently than the normal Maxis bin of 0x0F for glasses, allowing a user to layer on two pairs of glasses at a time. This is clearly not the proper thing to do, and some convention with regards to the bin numbers of accessories needs to be made.

Sims 2 Logo transparent.png This article is written for The Sims 2. For the equivalent Sims 3 article, click here.


2C1FD8A1
Short name: XTOL
Long name: Texture Overlay XML

Contents

[edit] Introduction

This resource is formatted as either XML or CPF, but usually as a CPF. This resource is used in many types of CAS Items that can be added to a Sim without using a mesh, such as blush, lipstick, eye colors, face paint, eyeliner, etc.

Listed below are some of the different fields included in the XTOL resource, and their use.

[edit] Version

This seems to identify the version of Bodyshop that the content was made from. Does not appear until University, and, oddly enough, items created with the Nightlife version of Bodyshop also have version 2. It would seem, however, that these have no bearing on whether or not the item will show up in the game if the expansion is not installed, given the fact that things created with the Pets version of Bodyshop do show up when a person does not have Pets installed and, as a result of some of the missing elements, cause the strange thumbnails and other problems. This may be useful for tool makers, however, to quickly identify items based on what version of the game they were created with.

Version Game
0x00000002 University or Nightlife
0x00000003 Open for Business(One could infer that Family Fun Stuff and Glamour Life Stuff would also have a version number of 3.)

Hex Part Note
0x00000002 Face Always set to this for the XTOL resource.

[edit] Subtype

Tells you what category this particular item falls into.

0x00000001 Eyebrows
0x00000002 Lipstick

[edit] Skintone

Hex Makeup
0x00000000 Lipstick
0x00000014 Blush
0x0000001E Eye Shadow
0x00000028 Eyeliner

[edit] Bin

This entry is very important. This controls what the item is grouped with so that the game knows if you can have more than one of this particular item on the Sim at the same time or not. For example, you could have a sim wearing lipstick (0x0A) and eye shadow (0x07) simultaneously, but not two different shades of lipstick simultaneously. This can be beneficial in giving the ability to layer two different kinds of face paint, for example, but can be very easily abused, and has been recently by some creators. For example, with the XMOL resource, which is formatted similarly, creators have binned custom accessories differently so that a Sim can wear a pair of glasses and necklace at the same time. However, some have also been abusing it by randomly making up numbers or by not following Maxis standards when it would make sense to. For example, one creator had their pair of custom glasses binned differently than the normal Maxis bin of 0x0F for glasses, allowing a user to layer on two pairs of glasses at a time. This is clearly not the proper thing to do, and some convention with regards to the bin numbers of accessories needs to be made.
