simgaroopSo I was looking at my downloads folder and realized I had 1.87 Gb of stuff in one of my subfolders.
And that's just my "objects folder"!!!
WTF?! No wonder my game takes forever to load lately.
So, in an abrupt movement, I deleted all my stuff. No more 80000 clutter files and a gazillion wall recolors I never use.
Good thing I was anal retentive enough to keep the CC for my two lots apart, otherwise they'd be completely screwed up now.
So now, I ask you, my fellow simmers who have managed to keep your downloads folder in a manageable, tiny size: Which are the basic buy and build stuff you have? I think I'll get some Holy Simoly stuff and a few recolors. And that's it, but I'm probably missing something.
So... which are your (Maxis Match, preferably) must haves?
When I'm done with that, I'm going to nuke my clothing folder. But the fact of having to play detective with all those meshes is a huge turn off. Meh, I'm lazy. I can live with the 1.70 Gb of clothes for now... :S

Date: 2009-04-10 11:54 am (UTC)I approach cc downloading like I do shopping. If I think I'd like something, I email myself a link and then think about it a while before getting it. The only exception to this rule is if I see something and IMMEDIATELY know what sim I want it for (or if I'm shopping for a particular sim).
I also don't bother with a lot of furniture and buy mode stuff. I know if I opened that door I'd go completely wild and my game would explode.
