Review of the Sims2 Content Manager
J. M. Pescado:
Depends on which "object" you're referring to. Some of the goodies *ARE*, in fact, "objects", and not actually "hacks". Macrotastics and all of its associated packages, for instance, are actually self-contained objects that don't override anything. Other objects, like APO, are "dirty" objects that contain both an object and an associated global override required as a hook for the object, and thus are more properly hacks with an interface object. Still others, like the Phone Hack, contain an OBJD, but are purely hacks, not objects. These may potentially be misidentified by a particularly stupid scanner. Like one that might be written by Maxis.

If Body-Shop and Home-Crafter are any indicators of Maxis' talents for software, the CleanInstaller stays. Sorry, but I have absolutely no faith in Maxis and anything they put forth. They don't seem to have any clues about their own products, and if things go wrong, they are about as helpful as... well I can't think of anything less helpful. I don't think they ever test anything they throw out for their customers, not the game, the ep's, or any other add-on software.

The only good thing about the Content Manager when compared to the S2PCI is that the Content Manager runs on limited accounts. This is only a minor annoyance with S2PCI, especially seen as about half the programs on my PC don't run on limited accounts.

Well, if it lets you view the outline of meshes that will help me out since I suspect I have a few untextured meshes in my game.

If you right click on an entry, and you've told it to go ahead and connect to the Sims2 Official site, it'll tell you what stuff you got this from if it's on the Exchange. Pretty useless unless you really want to send nasty emails to the person who gave you that SimstransmitSTDs Hack.
This is a joke right? Cause if it is... I think I have a hack request I want to make...

I do have quite a few skins that I do use. In fact, I rarely use Maxian skins but almost always use the custom skins. Perhaps I should just backup the files, go in and disable them all and see what's missing?

I've been using DatGen. It's got a pretty decent file scanner. All my "gibberish" files were just that. Gibberish. They were all empty files, so I deleted them and haven't had any problems.
