Usually I don’t as I will get a million duplicates, shit loads of clutter. Houses: I convert them to packages using s3ce, then I usually use dashboard to find the lot file and put that into my Library Folder, and IF (usually not the case) I want the CC from the houses I may look through the other package files.Patterns: I convert them to packages then fix them following this tutorial.I NEVERRRRRRRRR install sims3packs, I always convert to.I NEVER manually merge, its a pain and you cannot undo it. Then I put it into CC Magic where again I have the same folder set-up.This means I always know where to find my CC If its okay, a copy goes into a Backup folder, where like the codes I have a file for everything, so CAS>Hair>AF, Build>Walls etc.Then it goes in a “test” folder under mods first to make sure its not corrupt.Then I run all my new CC through s3rc to compress it.I don’t rename the actual file name, cause if I redownload it forgetting I already have it, then if it keeps the file name I will realize its a duplicate.Then I will give each object a code before it like “Obj_kid_” or “CAS_top_af” so I know what it is.Once I download CC I rename it using ReNamer to remove any special sighs like &/%([ etc, as reading those can slow down the game.Oh Lordy, this is a long one but I will try to get it all in:
