Starting a new save which means the daunting task of putting lots in Newcrest. Are there any builders on the gallery out there who has made Newcrest "collection" so to speak so I can just place down lots quickly and not endless searching?
Look for the #BuildNewcrest hashtag on the Gallery.
I am also working on a personal "base save" where I place my favourite starting builds for each world, give premades seasonal outfits, degrees, lifestyles, fixed relationships etc and add certain items into the open street with T.O.O.L (voting boards, basketball hoops etc).
It's worth making one for yourself, and updating it with new packs and new favourite builds over time. It saves a lot of setting up. Once it's made you can even make variants of it like empty lots, (but keep the added world objects), no premades, own premades etc.
Keep each save file in a named folder and put those together in a safe folder that you have backed up somehow. Copy into newly generated Sims Saves folder when starting a new game.
I tend to keep the whole Sims 4 folder to separate screenshots and saves, and cut/paste over Tray files each time so I have access to my Library from all saves. If you have a lot of mods/cc this would use a lot of disk space unless you use a mod manager and add and remove them from each folder as necessary.
