No, you cannot simply delete the character files. You must also purge all the internal save references to those files. See "Deleted 2: Electric Boogaloo!".

Thank you. I read the "Deleted 2: Electric Boogaloo!" thread twice yesterday, but then saw the reference to deleting Character folders here and wanted to double-check. From what I've read so far, the BFBVFS is approaching... as I have also moved sims between neighbourhoods in my game. Wish I had discovered MATY earlier.
One more question: is it safe to pack a house (after you have evicted the family) and then install it in a clean neighbourhood?

Why bother? Just pick it up and stick it in the lot bin. When you place it down again, a copy will remain in the lot bin which you can stick where you like. I keep a custom neighbourhood with copies of all my own builds in it. I go in pick up what I want, put it back again immediately, and use the copy in the lot bin to place elsewhere in game. Then delete from the lot bin when I'm done - because I like to keep the lot bin fairly empty.

;D I guess after over 50 hours of reading about all the supposedly innocuous things that can - surprise! - turn your game into a BFBVFS one becomes quite paranoid...
