This is a pretty huge overhaul! In fact, it’s really a different mod in the way it’s been approached. Although the core is the same, it’s really gone through a lot of changes with the intention of making it a base for an overhaul of my uniforms.
But if you’re not using uniforms you can still use this as a way to change the school colors!
All versions include the YM & YF clothing from my Recolors for School Colors. Please delete the standalone versions if you use this mod.
Details
- Students no longer lose all their accessories when wearing generated outfits.
- No fans for Chess and Computer clubs
- Only sims with certain traits are Football fans
- Cheerleaders wear cheerleading outfits to support the Football team
- Only the Football team wears sporty clothes to support the Cheer team
- Masc jacket & tie and button up sweater are now an options for Chess team outfits.
- No more cropped pants. Jeans for sporty outfits and dress pants/skirts for the Chess team. (I don't know if cropped pants are actually popular with teenagers, but I'm old and I thought they looked stupid)
- No more ugly velcro shoes. Now randomized from a few different sneakers for sporty looks and dress shoes and socks for Chess and Computer clubs.
- Blue/Black/Red - The original color scheme with a few outfit improvements
- Blue/Red - A slight variation of the original
- Blue/Black - A more subdued color scheme, but it still uses the red and blue sports outfits for now
- Red/Black - Changes all the regular blue & red school clothes to red & black.
- Gray/Black - Most clothes are gray & black. Sports outfits are red & black.
- This conflicts with one specific part of Bienchen's situationoutfitsbegone mod. If you use that mod you should use version 1 of walkbyrain. I may add a compatibility version in the future, but for now that's the solution.
- Actually for now that's just good advice in general since version 2 of that mod doesn't include the HSY tags and will result in situations like me thinking EA made the pants horribly randomized when they actually didn't.
Patch Notes
- Rebuilt this mod and School Uniforms to fix miscellaneous bugs. Please delete all old files and redownload.
- Restructured to include a base mod and a CHOOSE ONE folder. Please use both the base and a single color file.
- Added the missing override to remove the blue sporty jacket from Red/Black & Gray/Black color schemes
- Added a custom red plaid swatch of the masc chess jacket for Red/Black. I actually forgot that I had used the red plaid for it because it bothered me that it didn't really match the fem one. It's much closer now.
- Updated blue pants to be darker
- Added custom gray swatches of the sporty jackets for Gray/Black. No longer reuses the ones from Red/Black
- Updated Gray/Black to use gray & maroon cheerleading and football outfits instead of black & red
- Added new color scheme: Green/Gold
- Also I totally forgot I made this update and forgot to post it sooner. Oops!
- Added PNG to the "CHOOSE ONE" folder to make finding the set you want a little easier. I'll eventually repost this (again) as an image post with screenshots.
- Added Red & Black and Gray & Black color schemes
- Cleaned up some stuff in the other versions but probably not noticeable
- As always, please let me know if you spot a problem. There are so many files merged in these that I’m sure I’ll miss things from time to time.
- Added missing recolors. Nothing was broken, but since I promised they were all included I figured I’d better uphold that. If you downloaded v1.0 earlier and want the corrected version please download v1.0.1. If you don’t care about the recolors there’s no need.

Because so much has changed behind the scenes it makes more sense to just describe what this does now, rather than posting about each thing I updated.
