Removing Unused Parts in MultiAlpha Recolors?

A replacement package does not have a propertyset.....
Those contain textures and/or meshes
That explains why I can't find it then. :D
As for cloning, it was a misquote from your own words above. Quote
When done clone your outfit with bodyshop
So is this irrelevant to my replacement problem?
What I've done is use the BV huladress for the maternity wear, which is working fine except that I can't get Bodyshop to read the noblend or alpha files so I can't recolour any of the accessories. The lei looks a bit stupid on very pregnant sims, not to mention that they all have the SAME lei, so I wanted to remove it.
I was hoping the process you explained above was my missing link, either to get Bodyshop to acknowledge those parts of the mesh or to remove the lei.
BlooM:
So you downed a maternity default replacement and changed the outfit and mesh with the BV Huladress?
Did you relink the textures and meshes to Maxis originals or did you load copy's in that particular package?
I did once made that dress available as a standalone mesh, maybe you can use it?
It has also the noblend part in it but you can delete it within the mesh(the gmdc)

If the replacements use the original maxis files then you could consider deleting the noblend part within the original mesh.
You should make a new package, load the afbodydresshula gmdc in it and delete the noblend.
It is possible that you have my sexyfeet replacements installed which also contains that file, then delete the noblend in there.

I have used the_mystical_one's replacement of the hula dress which has the preg morph added. The textures from the maternity clothes are in my package, and have been changed to recoloured versions of the hula dress. I don't think I've done any relinking, unless by accident.
I've already deleted the noblend wherever I found it mentioned in the package - in the GMND and SHPE. I am thinking there is something I need to do to tell the game that I've deleted those things, which is what brought me to this thread.
Thanks for helping. Hopefully that's enough info for you to give me the right advice. The thread where I've been nutting this out on MTS is here: http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?p=2744670#post2744670
I wrote up notes as I did the last verison, so you should be able to see exactly what I'm doing.
BlooM:
Just had a look at the mesh, couldn't remember how the layers were placed.
I am not sure wat it is that you want to remove but if you only want the outfit you can delete the noblend file and both the alpha files.
The noblend covers the neckless while the alpha's cover the gras thingy's on hands and ankles and the layer arround the waist.
If you delete them in the gmdc of the mesh none will show anymore.

But I have. Assuming you meant the GMND, since those groups don't seem to be listed under the GMDC. Or do you mean I have to delete them from the mesh before putting it into the replacement package?
I only want to get rid of the noblend (necklace) really.
EDIT: I found two places in the GMDC which mentioned noblend - a set of tickboxes under Models, which had Body and Noblend ticked, and the two alphas not ticked. Unticked that. Also, dug into the Groups tab and deleted one from that list too. Committed and saved. But my sims still wear leis! Am I in the right place at all?
