Merging mods to increase Performance!
Trystiane:
First I would like to say thanks so much for this idea and for explaining it so clearly that even I could do it.
I have 2 questions that can just be ignored if they are too stupid, but here they are:
1. Anything available in sims3pack files I have been installing with the launcher, so I only merged my package files. That should be fine, correct?
2. When I have s3pe replace in the merge is that getting rid of conflicts automatically or was I supposed to somehow check for conflicts in another way?

Yes because the merged packaged files are now doing what the launcher was doing all along: large single files with multiple stuff inside them.
Your sims3packs were already done the "right way".

2. Yes it gets rid of conflicts automatically. The only ones it doesnt (so far) are the manifest _xml files as explained in the howto.
1. This was answered in the above post. However, the reason you see mention of sims3pack files in the later posts of this thread is because I have also been extracting and merging my sims3pack manually, as doing so keeps me from having to use the horrible launcher and allows me to edit them in was I was previously unable to do when installed via the launcher.
Trystiane:
Thanks for the answers, my game is running so much better now. The one thing is that some of my CAS makeup has gone odd. Some of the lipsticks have lost their color options, but perhaps they were bad files already...
What kinds of edits do you make to the files Anach?
Heinel:
This is probably more of a question of s3pe, but I got an error saying: "Expected magic tag 'DBPF'. Found 'DBPP'." while importing files as .dbc.
The program just stops there then, and the error message doesn't tell you which package causes the error either, is there any simple way to fix that?
