schmoopee:
I would say NO - Clean installer is far superior. I got it to download, but it won't load up - it freezes and when I try to kill it it says "program not responding".  ::) And there's a dozen more people that had the same experience at N99.

J. M. Pescado:
Let's be realistic: Did you honestly expect Maxis to make something that didn't suck?

schmoopee:
Hope springs eternal in the simmer's breast.  ::)

JenW:
I tried to launch it, it churned for a while, then gave me the extremely helpful error message of "Error!" *bitchslaps Maxis* Gahhh, developers...at least I know developers writing stupid/incomprehensible error messages isn't limited to my company.

Hey JM, on the filenames of random crap, I thought those were probably houses or something...so they're not? Are they the empty packages Clean Installer shows? Where are the houses? Being a builder I should know this, I guess, but I don't *holds onto lips*

Ancient Sim:
I downloaded this last night and re-downloaded it quite a few times, putting it into various different folders, because whenever I clicked on the exe file my pc just hung.  Eventually I got so fed-up I went to make a coffee - came back and it had loaded.  Turns out it is EXTREMELY slow to load (or at least it is for me, probably because I have a lot of downloads), so that's probably the reason it appears not to be working when you click the exe file.  Why they have zipped it and not put it into a package file I have no idea - it gives you no suggestion whatsoever of where to put it.

The most useful aspect of it is that it shows the file path, which Clean Installer doesn't, at least I don't recall it doing so.  It doesn't appear to show empty files though, or duplicates.  Also, there appears to be no option to check sub-folders, it groups your entire downloads folder and subs together, which is probably why it takes so long to load.  Rather interesting also that a lot of JM and TwoJeffs' mods were nice and blue and referred to as objects, not hacks.
