Too much cc?
Did I download too much CC? I downloaded 250 custom content items. Is that too much? I am worried.

Well this is a family computer that 5 people use so i dont think i have that much storage
@poobear1 The question is not about overall storage per se, although you'll want to keep at least 35-40 GB free at all times to give Windows enough room to maneuver. It's more about your computer's processor and RAM, and its graphics card as well if you've added content that takes more resources to render (like the aforementioned high poly count hair). But again, this is the kind of topic to ask over at Mod the Sims or a similar site, where players who regularly use cc can give you a better idea of what kind of performance to expect from your computer.
Alternately, you could just try loading the game and see if it holds up. If you haven't experienced any performance issues yet, you might be fine. Or you could take some of the cc out and see how your computer does with, say, 100 items instead of 250. Before you start experimenting, you can copy your saves folder and store the backups elsewhere, which is a good idea regardless of whether you're worried about something going wrong.
- i dont understand anything you are saying not to be mean or annoying but i dont understand
@poobear1 Alright, why don't you run a dxdiag, and attach it to a post by using the button next to the paper clip icon. Then we can go over the info in it, and I can explain what information you need to keep track of while you're playing.

In the meantime, if there are terms you don't understand, you can always google the words to get an explanation.
Edit: Are you playing Sims 3 or Sims 4? Because the two games manage cc somewhat differently.
- I am playinf Sims 4 I think I accedently put this thread in Sims 3 and what is your personal opinion to this question: Do you think 250 CC Is a lot?
