Merging mods to increase Performance!
FireDrake:
I know this is necromancy, but it seems if I were to start a new topic, I'd get yelled at for that too.
Anyway, I have been having the same problem that Zazazu had, however, even when I do the things that he mentioned and what previous posters said, my CC fails to show up in game after I merge it into a single package file. I have around 290 files that merged and compressed from 200 MB to 14.8 MB. It runs through s3pe just fine with no errors, I checked it with Delphy's Dashboard Tool and it comes up clean. I cleared all my caches, yet nothing seems to be showing up. Can someone help me?

I posted a link to a visual guide at the bottom of the original post. This may help. As long as you are merging correctly and naming them .package, putting the merged packages in your mods directory and have the framework installed, they should work. If they don't, then you have missed something.
Might be handy if someone made the thread into a sticky, then the necro wont matter :)

Okay, I followed the visual guide exactly, but nothing shows up in game! Also, I noticed that when I'm in s3pe and I save my new merged file, it "stops responding" as Windows puts it. Should this be happening?

Yes it's normal for it to do that, depending on processing time for the file.
Make sure when you are deleting those 0x000 xml files, you are not deleting any _key files. Go grab delphy's framework installer from MTS and run it. Run the Sims 3 Dashboard and make sure your new package is shown in the list.

I got it! It turns out I'm supposed to wait for s3pe to respond again, as that is the period of time where it's saving my merged files. I was just closing it because I thought it had actually stopped working lol. Woops...
Thanks for your help Anach, it was much appreciated.
