Is it normal to have 996 char files in an unplayed hood?
kazebird:
I started a fresh Belladonna, after I got a bunch of third party fixes (checked with HCDU of course,) and I decided to add ceilings to all the subhoods in all EP's, so it wouldn't be weird to have ceilings some places, and not others. This process took ten hours, spread between two days. Then I decided to back up the hood, as I never want to go through that again. During the backup I started seeing large numbered character files, so I decided to check the characters folder, and to my astonishment, I have 996 char files in my Belladonna neighborhood. Remember I didn't open one residential/dorm lot, as those can be fixed when/if I play them. I know it's not a huge amount, but if it is growing I want to know about it. Everyone here says there is no spawning problem but I am worried if this is a normal amount of starting files.
All EP's
No SP's
Intel Core 2 Duo
XP sp2

Sadly, Yes. I did not have the cleaned up templates installed and added three universities, Bluewater Village, the three vacation destinations, and Downtown, and have all the EPs and SPs installed, and ended up with 994 characters prior to playing with anyone in Belladonna Cove. I am curious about where your extra two characters are, and who they are. But that number is well within the realm of normal.
kazebird:
No, wait I just checked, and it is 994 thank goodness!
But I have heard of hacks to prevent townie respawn, and want to know what they are.

I think Antiredundancy combined with Notownieregen work to prevent any UNNECESSARY townies from spawning. I don't know if they make sure that already-made townies are summoned to populate your apartments, though.

You can find notownieregen and antiredundancy for AL here: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ffs/al/hacks/
