what to remove from downloads folder before installing nightlife?

Motoki:
I could end up being wrong on this, but I don't see how the new meshes and recolors that work fine currently would cause problems with university. I know they had the whole update your recolors to the episode compatible format thing before university, but I thought I remember someone from Maxis (Tom?) say that the changes made to the recolor format would be used for all future expansions from University on.

The meshes did come later but I don't see how they'd cause problems except that they might lack new functionality if the expansion patches some existing objects, like how a new computer or bookcase cloned off those objects pre-university would work but not have the college options after university was installed.

Anyhow, I guess we will find out in a few days. :O

I would think if you're worried about hacks and stuff, and you want to go to the bother of making a new installation after backing everything up, you could then start a new neighbourhood in the new install, then start to add your hacks and downloads a bit at a time to see if you get problems.  Once all your custom content is installed to your satisfaction then you would obviously need to remove your new hood if you want to keep it, remove your custom content and uninstall/reinstall NL, then move everything back before running the game.  (At least, if I remember rightly, that's how it worked with Uni.)  (To prevent clashes with 'Hood numbers, you might have to create 3 or 4 apart from the one you play, so it has a different number from your other 'hoods.)

Hey, people have been wondering what happened to you... Good to see you again, with what appears to be yet another horrible nanny... :)
