About Deleting Accessories//Make-up

[Furious_Idea]

Just a short, sweet little question. If I were to delete a file of makeup or an accessory ((earring//necklace//glasses)) and a Sims character was still WEARING it, when I deleted it, will this cause problems? Will the make-up just disappear from the Sim that was wearing it?

That is what should happen.  Most things you delete like make up or accessories don't cause a problem.  If you delete Hair a sim is wearing it may cause problems.   I have had to completely delete my sims before when I deleted the hair she was wearing.  It caused my sim to become corrupt.

Oh, I don't plan on that! I'm just a download-aholic, and I really need to Clear out the old things I don't use, anymore, or I'll feel terrible for having so much stuff!

Make-up, clothes (as long as it was not using a special mesh, if so, if you delete the mesh make sure to delete all the recolors along with it), hair (same apply has clothes) and skins are safe to delete.

The sim will use the next one available in queue, don't be surprise though if some of your sims will look funny after a clean-up. :tongue:

Good info.  Thank you.  My sim was bald and I couldn't get her to wear any other hair so I deleted her, so I assumed all would be the same and haven't tried again.

Thank you very much! This is going to make cleaning out all the makeup and things I didn't particularly like MUCH much easier~! :worship:

To make it even easier on you I suggest you use Delphy's download organiser.
