Title: Groups Cache etc?
Post by: GroovyGran on February 02, 2008, 10:44:39 am
Hi, I have noticed sometimes, usually if I have added new custom content, that my game will not load.

2 Files appear from nowhere in my game folder
groups cache and accessory cache

I know that if I remove them my game will start again, but can anyone explain to me why the files appear?
It drives me nuts

regards Gran :smt120

They're just "storage" for data while the game or Bodyshop is running.  Sort of like how your browser stores temporary data in your Temporary Internet Files and even in your internet cookies.  ;)  

The Groups.cache is related to sims, genetics, and clothing I believe... I could be wrong about it, but that's my guess.  :dontknow:

The Accessory.cache is related to just as its name suggests... the accessories for the game.

(Like I said, I could be wrong about these, but judging by the names, that's my take on them.  :lol:)
