Organising and Using Screenshots?!
Need some hints and tips for organising and using the many, many screenshots one takes in the game.
Forum Discussion
I usually take my screenshots out of my screenshots folder in my Sims 4 folder. I don't use the in-game memory system, so there's no need for me to keep them there. I place them in a folder on my external harddrive named whatever the family name is or what the save file name is.
For example, my alien legacy are the Xalvador family. So I have a folder named Xalvador family. Inside that folder is labeled Gen. 1-Orion Xalvador, which contains all of the pictures of my founder Orion. For generations with many offsprings, I make a gen (whatever number) and then inside that folder are labeled the names of sims in that generation. I also have a folder for Family Pictures, which contains group photos such as family reunions, parties, etc.
As for naming the screenshots, I number them in chronological order (1, 2, 3, etc.).
I'm sure others have much better organizational skills but I find this is the easiest way for me. I'm interested in picking up other ideas so thanks for making this thread.
