Clear out help

[zilzos]

Hi guys

  hoping someone can help,
I have huge (7.33gb) store of cc and I'd like to try and clear some of my old houses out.
I have clean pack installer but it doesnt show up the teleport stuff. Everything else I have in neat little folders so I know whats what but this teleport folder already in the game seems to have 967 files in it and of course they are all those big mad number and letters - i.e
ed0f019c9c108f79f32734cd3ca0800404_0002.rar
so have no idea which are houses I'm using.

What else is in that folder apart from houses ?

If I delete houses from within the game will that remove them completely from my computer ?

 I Have some beautiful houses from here that I obviously want to keep so any idea how I can remove stuff without taking away things that I'm already using or want to keep ?

Try the Download Organizer.

After you run it through your downloads folder, it'll give a description of what those long string of numbers and letter are.

It's over at MTS2.

Thanks - did a duplicate scan and got rid of a few things there

 have gone into the full recan bit in file but its not scanning my teleport folder ?

nothing happening at all - should I have tried to scan this folder before selecting my downloads folder ?

I think you can have it scan your teleport folder, I'm not sure off the top of my head.

The teleport folder has house you just downloaded, but haven't started up your game yet.

If you still have the zip or rar files, you can always just install them again.

Not to interrupt, but I believe that the Teleport Folder only houses (no pun intended) buildings temporarily when you first download them, then ends up putting them somewhere else.

Sorry, EK. That's just what you said, lol.

Its trying to scan teleport forlder but nothing happening

 at bottom of screen its says  'scanning packages......please wait.....' but its been doin that for an hour and nothings happening ?


says when you first use it to scan download folder and have done that as instructed

ah well thanks anyway - least been able to get rid of some duplicate files


Ooo just read above (wasnt there when started replying) - so my houses should be in the overall download folder ?
If I remove them whilst in the game (in the neighbourhood by deleting them) will that remove them completely from my computer or just from the actual game ?

[EKozski]

I know it deletes them, from the game or from your hard drive, I'm not sure.

But, like I said, if you still have the ZIP or RAR files, you can install them again.

Thanks for all your help

will just delete them from game and see if download folder gets any smaller
