Just a quick question: can you put CC in sub folders like you can for TS2? example: Mods > my_subfolder > files

Thanks for the info and the heads up. I guess this means I need to get organised before I go on a CC spree as I'm infamous for reorganising my downloads :lol: Starting with mods and cc careers! And looking for body freckles :love:

Glad to help and glad to see you being happy. :) Happy simming and happy shopping spree. Found a new MM CC toddler hair on modthesims that will be nice for a female toddler with long hair (The braid one).

You can like someone else said, but be careful not to have too many sub-sub folders xD I know you can have a sub folder, but sometimes when you have too many sub folders inside a sub folder the cc doesn't show in your game...I hope that makes sense

It's only CC that you want in subfolders. Leave the rest in the main folder. But you can go about 4 or 5 folders deep. Another CC tip! Rename files so there's only numbers and letters, maybe the underscore. It speeds game performance noticeably.

Thanks you guys, I had scripts in subfolders :confounded: moving them out now! But not sure, I see .py and .ts4script and .package for mods, can I keep the mods with .package in subfolders and should the .py and .ts4scripts be moved to the main folder? @luthienrising - this is so true! The special chars and spaces affects TS2 game performance as well.

hi sorry if this has been answered before but if I've got script mods and they come with multiple folders already (e.g. the slice of life mods) does that mean I have to remove them from their subfolders and put them in the main mods folder??

You sure? I was curious so I wrote a little command-line utility to batch rename everything in the current folder, removing all but numbers and letters. Renamed ALL my CC, over 2500 files. Not sure if it effected it any.

Late to respond, @DramaLlamaSimmer, but usually if the creator provides a sub-folder structure, you're safe to use it and do not need to restructure or relocate it.
