Is Cloning a Neighbourhood a VBT?

(1/3) > >>

Killzone:
I have backed up my custom made neighbourhood using SimPe

I have made a clone of the hood using the Bulk Renaming Utility.

I wish to use the new hood for testing purposes, mainly genetics.

Loading the game and going into the hood, everything appears fine...but are there some VBT's that a nonawesome person such as myself is not aware of, that can turn my main playable hood into a BFBVFS?

J. M. Pescado:
Yes. Don't even think about it. What happens when you "clone" a neighborhood by file-copy is that all the internal GUIDs are the same. This means you can't load both neighborhoods at once without crosstalk and enborkination. DO NOT DO THIS!

Killzone:
Thats what I was afraid of (deletes cloned hood and reloads backup main hood)

Thankyou for the extremely prompt reply

FourCats:
What if only one of those is in the sims2 folder at a time, then will it work?

rufio:
Do not back up with SimPE and expect to be able to restore from it.  That was how I got my first BFBVFS.
