Can this kind of Housekeeping be done in BodyShop?

Lorelei:
I just read a thread on how to remove appearance-related cc from the game to save on space (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=84495) but my game gets kooky in CAS about 50% of the time and crashes on me. I deleted a bunch of stuff in BS and it initially borked my game, but now the game seems happier.

Also, I think I have far too many skins. I'm 90% sure no Sims are using most of them. Again, can I zap these in BS, and are skin files generally pretty big? Or, put another way, what custom content is best to delete, generally speaking, to gain the most filespace back for loading time reduction?

Cheers in advance for any enlightenment bestowed.

Sleepycat:
in my opinion, custom mesh stuff slows loading time more then anything else


as for deleting skintones, go right ahead. If any sims do happen to be using them they will just get one of the 4 original  S1-S4 (or the default replacement if you have them) skintones.

Basically, skin files are one of the biggest files. Things such as beds and cars can be really bad too, though. The larger the mesh is, the bigger the file.

Lorelei:
Thank you!

Again, though, the original post suggests doing it in CAS. Can I do it in Bodyshop and get the same result? I suspect that the answer is yes, but Bodyshop wasn't even mentioned as an option.

I am probably being too paranoid and overcautious, but I'm tired of Sims-related headaches. Time to concentrate on NVidia-related ones.

Sleepycat:
yes you can do it in Bodyshop  ;D
