Renaming Files
notveryawesome:
It's perfectly safe to rename package files (keeping in mind that some hacks need to load after other hacks), but if you rename Sims 2 Pack files, they will bork.
djslippyman:
Ok one quick question. When files in the download folder are removed does the game keep the file associations always in its system. I know they will go to a default maxis file if a file is missing but I'm taking that if its added back it will go back to the CC that was used before.
If I remove all my content except for Warlokk's meshes and clothes in the download folder. Can I go into bodyshop or the game and play and LATER add the original downloads folder back and all my sims will go back to what hair, meshes, clothing, etc that was assigned CC before it was removed. Or will I bork my game?
???

No.
If you remove CC, load up a lot, and save, your game will lose all memory of what CC your sims had, whether you put it back or not.
No. It will not bork your game. At least not badly. It will bork the genes of your sims if you remove custom skins or eyes, but at least you won't have a BFBVFS.
djslippyman:
So I would affect only those sims affected on the lot I loaded and saved correct? Other lots not played would not be affected?
Removing content and loading Bodyshop would not not hurt file associations with my games and my sims then i take it?
Sorry I just wanted to be 100% clear on the issue... :P
seelindarun:
Bodyshop is a completely separate application and it doesn't touch any N'hood files, so mucking around with CC and firing it up doesn't do anything to your sims or their lots.
I caution you against playing any lot without the CC, and expecting to preserve genetics. Character files of sims who don't reside on that particular lot do get updated during play, and have the potential to get borked.
Even better than asking though, is to back up your 'hood and dl folder, and then muck around as much as you want. If things get twisted, restore your backup. :)
