This lot uses too many packs...or does it?

Holy crap. As someone who owns many fewer packs than most builds of interest to me seem to use, this could be extremely, extremely useful for me. Thanks for passing it along! :)

I'm honestly surprised how many people didn't know about this feature.
Am I the only one who clicks all the new buttons whenever we get a UI update?

That said, this is a very useful feature, and as builder who owns most packs, I should use it more to check if there are things that can be replaced to limit the amount of packs used.

oh, cool, didn't know about this.

It’s too bad they don’t do a short walk through on UI updates on their YT channel to show people this stuff. It a shame that people may pass up a build they really like because they think it has tons of items from a pack or packs they don’t own when in fact it may just be a vase, a picture, a small bit of terrain paint, or 1 landscape item that’s easily replaced or even still as the video shows that nothing from that pack was used after all.

Sometimes the only thing from a pack somebody's using is say, the wallpaper or an item or two of clutter.

Thank you so much for this!

I have had to pass up on so many beautiful build for this reason. I had no idea this feature existed, but I'll be using it all the time now. I wonder if CAS is the same?

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much! :blush:

Like with builds, I have had to pass up on downloading so many Sims as well, just in case there's like 2 outfits (including hairstyles) I may not have. When if it's just a necklace or something... I don't really care if it's "missing."

Mind blown ? again!

Im actually surprised that it puts people off so much TBH. I know I have all the packs but Ive downloaded CC builds or sims before despite having no CC! I just pick new furniture or clothes for what is missing!
I recently downloaded a build where practically all the interior was CC....I got a house filled with generic white base game placeholder furniture and blank canvases instead of art!LOL (it was such a pretty build though that I didnt care).
