Hi! I was wondering if anyone could tell me if merging packages make The Sims 4 runs better? Thanks in advance

What I found with merging packs, is it will decrease your loading time, IF you have significant loading times that is. It does not actually "make the game run better".
I've never had any issues with TS4 lagging or anything like that tho.
Whenever I have 20GB-30GB of CC in my mods folder and nothing has been merged, it might take 15 minutes to load the game.
If that same CC has been merged into multiple packages (I always merge by creator, so I probably have about 200 merged packages), then my load time would decrease to about 5-7 minutes.
There's no need to merge any packages for quicker game load times. All you have to do is turn off that CC List thingy that pops up when you start up your game (you can turn off the cc list in the options menu). Turn that off, exit your game and then start it back up again. You're loading time will drop down to just a couple of minutes at the most... the load speed will blow your socks off! :D
I have around 25 GB of cc/mods and my game boots up in under 2 minutes ever since I turned it off.
Here's a link to the thread where I first learned about this awesome little trick: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/comment/17592760#Comment_17592760
