If you're a CC (Custom Content) lover like me, you no doubt have a pretty large Mods/Packages folder. :p I'm always curious just how large everyone else's is so that's why I created this poll for fun. Don't be shy. :blush:Just round up to the nearest GB when you vote. :) *If you're wondering how to check, go into Documents/Electronic Arts/TheSims3 and hover your cursor over the Mods folder and a little box should appear that will tell you the size of the folder. :)

My Mod folder is 250 MB. Instead, I have 2.5 GBs of DCCache folder which is almost store items include 300 Mbs of CCs. What kind of ccs are you using? I always feel the hairs and clothes are not enough for male.

(Covers Mods folder up with hands, looks suspiciously to the left, then to the right, then peeks inside). I don't feel this is anyone's business but my own, but since that choice was not represented on the poll I decided to answer properly. :p

I could have picked two options, as File Explorer claims my Mods folder is exactly 10.0 GB.

Mine's 3.3 gb. I try to keep it low and only use CC that I feel I really NEED but it's been creeping up a little lately :D

1,93 GB in the Mods folder. 1,90 GB in the DCCache one. :smile:

@Amphora ^Right!? :lol: I was totally thinking the same thing!
Like, "If they can run their games with that much CC think of how much more I could have!" :naughty:

Exactly! I’ve only recently started to stockpile CC again and it’s starting up my old hoarding habits that I used to have :D

But then the pros and cons of CC are: do I want a pretty game or do I want a smooth running game? But I download only .package file CC and convert any .sims3packs that I do download (usually from Around the Sims) to .package so that way I can avoid the dreaded launcher. Lol.

But I also compress all of the CC I download after testing it out which helps my game to run a lot more smoothly as well o:)

After my resultant problems with my cc external HDD, I'm now at a modest 1.23GBs on my SSD in my mods folder in game.

My backup sorting mods folder...including the S3packs...and zipped files..is...5.51GBs. :p
