To you have them all bundled up together like that or are they in subfolders?
Bundled up like that in Downloads -folder. I keep other stuff in their own folders like this:
Downloads
hackity.packages
- Objects
- FloorsWalls
- Facefiles (face replacements)
I had them in their own Hacks-folder but I figured it would be better if they were in Downloads.
From my reading of other threads, it looks like you would be better off downloading those hacks into separate folders named after the modder (Crammyboy, Pescado, TwoJeffs, etc), as sometimes hacks if loaded in the wrong order, might conflict. From my understanding, the modders here will build on other Awesome hacks, so they need to be loaded in a certain order.
Having them in the own separate groups would also allow you to quickly see who makes your hacks, where to update them from, etc.

I find doing something to organize ANY kind of downloads so you have at least a vague idea of where they came from is useful, but it's vital with global mods -- that way you don't have to wonder what the hell 'noteleportpuddle.package' is.

Yeah, you're right. I should have done that ages ago. I just thought it would be easier for the game to look into less files, but that way I could keep all the rtfm's in the files and have no more of them "what does this do" -moments.
I'm so happy I didn't have to ditch any hacks. They keep my Sims alive. I used to fry at least one sims family a week because I was so poofed on the stupid things they did.
By the way, has anyone done a hack to remove/less autonomous fishing? It's kinda annoying I can't have a pond without every single visitor going fishing when I want my sims to flirt with them.. I just MIGHT add that to my long list of hackety-hacks.

Squinge at Insim has more no autonomous hacks than you'll probably ever need. Check there if MATY dosen't have one.

I have gone through Squinge's lists five times today and I didn't find it. I need another pair of eyes. Or a new brain.
Hmm, I should come here and ask questions every time I don't know something, because my problems are solved the moment I push the Post button.
;D
