I haven't experienced this yet myself and I have 2.30GB of CC I have no idea how many files exactly, but a LOT =) Other people are telling me too that if you have tons of CC some can drop off the bottom and not show. usually a skin and can't be removed you have to delete the Sim itself. ~People Watcher~ 25 January 2013 at 12:49Ĭhloe so sorry I hadn't been checking my comments, some version don't show in the launcher they are attached to Sims. The reason we say to delete certain files from DCbackup is because Some - like these boots - attach themselves to random Sims you make even when they are not wearing them Delete The DC backup folder comes in to play when you share Sims The CC in your game doesn't load from this folder, Custom content loads from the Launcherįor example if you deleted ALL the DC files, all your CC will still be playable in the game but when you go to share a Sim - it would still have all the pictures of the CC, but when anyone installs it, there are no Custom files with it To narrow them down go to installed content, just above you will see some tabs - Select the "Sims" tab - this takes all the patterns and furniture out of your way, so there is less to go through - I wish I could help more, but it really is a case of trawling and trawling until you find them I promise you, they are in the Launcher, its just a matter of going very slowly through them, and you will find them - I know it is frustrating, and difficult when you have a lot of custom content but they really are there

The only way the code gets into the DC backup folder is when you install custom items - they are just not there otherwise Save it, delete the original (either from CAS or the launcher) then install your new version (its' saved in the exports folder) - This is the quickest and easiest way.

IN future, if you have a sim you love and it's dressed in loads of stuff but has hidden files, just delete THOSE 0x codes, you don't even have to remove the items from the sim. I've now written a follow up post to this one here bad cc can stay in the game if sims in the 'savedsims' folder are wearing it. No Ox code, no cc EVEN if you dressed your sim in the item, it simply won't save on to a new sim.Īlso. But by far the safest way is deleting the 0x code. Take off the custom skin and the bad cc stops sticking.

MOST of the time when I've tested, it is related to a custom skin. The boots and other hidden bad cc can stick to your sims without being selected. It doesn't save it from the game, cas, downloads folder, none of them. When you saved 'clean sims' if you make sure you have deleted all the bad CC's Ox codes from the dcbackup folder, you wouldn't have had any on the clean sims.ĪLL custom content is saved via the dcbackup folder. So, for those of you who can't get rid of those darn glitch files try this fix. My suspicions were correct, the random sim who started with the boots had the glitch again. Then started with a game default sim and changed the clothes. Now I also tested my theory by hitting the random button to get the boots on one sim, changed clothes and shoes and deleted.

The only thing I lost was the skin and those are free all over the place. I left all my installation files on my computer and just deleted the sim file and poof, boots gone. I experimented with this and I was right. My guess was that since one of my sims popped up with the hooker boots and I changed his shoes then maybe the corruption was in the sim file itself. I checked everything on this page and in my install page and no glitched items. When I downloaded and installed my clean sims the boots showed up again. I then followed these instructions on this page and created my own "clean" sims (so I could keep my favorite things and get rid of the crap) and uninstalled everything. After lots of playing with this, and getting very frustrated, I just deleted all my files and left the base sim only. I have a fix for those of you who deleted your bad files and still have them showing up.
