Questions about The Sims 3 Launcher
SIMone de beauvoir:
Hello!
I have a couple of doubts about the Game Launcher. If someone could please erase my doubts, I'd be really happy.
The Game Launcher has different tabs. One reads "Downloads", one "Installed Content", and the rest of the tabs do not matter now, as they're pretty obvious.
In the "Downloads" tab, the sets and items you've just downloaded and installed show up in grey, and change to colored if you uninstall a part of that file, right?
My number one question is... Suppose I keep a backup copy of everything I download, in a folder somewhere in my hard drive, in case I regret deleting anything. Once I've got everything I wanted installed (Installed Content tab) can I delete everything from the "Downloads" tab??? No matter whether they are grey or colored??? Will it affect my game? It will help me keep things in order, so I really want to know if I understood this right.
Number two question. Suppose I have downloaded the "Ultralounge Set" from EA Store. I've installed it. Now, I go to the "Intalled Content" tab so I can delete some items that I tried in game and did not like. In the "Installed Content" tab I'll see the whole list of items in the set... patterns, objetcs, etc. Now, there is one thing I do not understand. Why is there an item called "Ultralounge complete set"??? What does it mean? Why is it categorized as an object you could buy? And more important, what happens if I delete it? Will it delete the whole set? Because I do not want that, but I want to delete some items, and also to keep things organized.
Thank you.

You can redownload stuff from the store for free if you already bought it.
I've never deleted anything from the downloads section as I figure that will delete it from the game itsownself. But I dunno. I'm just guessing.
But try deleting something and see if it deletes it from the game. If it does, you can always redownload it free.

Deleting .sims3packs from the Downloads folder after they have been installed will remove them from the Downloads tab in the launcher. It doesn't affect content already installed. I'm not sure if you can do this directly from the launcher itself or not, I've never tried it.
Tever:
You can delete things from the Downloads tab, or directly from the folder. It does not affect content that is already installed.

Great. What about my second question? Do you know what it is?
