There has to be an easy way to do this. Because people do it but I can't find it someone told me Clean Installer does this but I can't figure it out.

When you complete a new Body SHape project, the final version of the file is saved in the SavedSims folder

~(My) Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\SavedSims

When you started the project you gave the project a name, for our illustration, let's use MyNewClothes

Youw would then look in the SavedSims folder for a new file named something like 12345678_MyNewClothes.package - in the part of the file name 12345678 you will find a random arrangement of the following numbers and letters:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 A B C D E F

The complete file is ALWAYS in the SavedSims folder - never in the Projects folder, BodyShop saves a sort of "open project" version there that does not work.

If you aren't sure which is which in the SavedSims folder - you can make a sim in BodyShop, save it to your desktop, then extract only the "clothing" category items to a safe location to create your ZIP/RAR file (just uncheck everything but the clothing and install to the folder you are using for the ZIP/RAR - be sure to delete the "extra" .package that Sims2Pack Clean Installer adds to the name)

That makes a lot of sense and easily done.

I work with a lot of meshes like yours that people dont want destributed.

I don't know why any of the skinning tutorials I have read have covered this.

It should be in them.
