Trying not to break it
Sunbee:
Thanks to you all and lots of lurking, I now have a list of things to not do. However, I have impaired search skills: I'm sure I'm not the first person to want to do this. Can I safely delete (and if so, how) the neighborhoods I did things I shouldn't ought to have done in before I knew better? I did all the delete sims from bin, move occupied houses between neighborhoods . . . all the things the game is made to look like one ought to be able to do and apparently shouldn't. I've only had Sims 2 for a couple months, so I haven't seen any BFBVFS, but I did see some preliminary signs, and, well, why bother keeping neighborhoods I messed up before I knew better?
Also, I downloaded the batbox--but my latest expansion is Seasons. I didn't see variant versions depending on expansion packs. Is that right? I'm slowly downloading other Awesomeware as I figure out what I'm doing and what it is, also some other hacks that seem to (not particularly good with computers, though I can fake it) get along well, mainly Simlogical. Sims must homeschool!
jolrei:
Yes, you can safely delete any neighbourhood in your My Documents\...\Sims2\Neighborhoods\ folder. You can do this from outside the game or from the main neighbourhood selection screen in the game.
Jelenedra:
Go to the Director's Cut thread. That is where links to previous EP versions of hacks are kept.
Sunbee:
Thanks very much. I will go delete those. No sense wasting memory.
I've been working on reading all the RTFMs and the threads associated with the hacks. Some seem to fix problems I don't tend to have--I micromanage so the BUY applies to a problem I've never seen as best I understand. My sims never pile up in the bathroom, they always have another queued action or five. (And if they don't have something to do, they all end up at the piano--apparently tipping someone with one lousy creativity point is a higher attraction action than anything else, including the computer!) Likewise, while I have Seasons, I don't have Pets or Nightlife so those hacks I don't need.
I didn't see the batbox specificly in the Seasons folder, so either I'm not reading well, or there's not a Seasons-specific version. In either case, using it in game so far hasn't caused a problem. Now if I could just figure out what half the functions on it are . . . I know it'll just take me a while. This site, like every other I've ever been on run by a INTJ, has its own vocabulary that I just have to learn.
Zazazu:
Batbox = ffsdebugger. It is totally there.
