Title: Objectless Recolors Post by: adammc80 on February 28, 2007, 12:02:14 am I'm trying to clean out my downloads a bit and get the game all ready for seasons. I was wondering if the recolors of an object get deleted along with the object or are they still hanging around in the downloads folder? If they don't get deleted, is there any program or anything like that, that detects objectless recolors?
Title: Objectless Recolors Post by: baileybop on February 28, 2007, 11:49:42 pm If you delete the actual object, the recolors are gone too. Be careful what you delete tho because some things draw their textures from something else. I have a couple of things that actually draw their texture from a stupid teacup, and I have a lot of tables, I don't use, but can't delete because something else I use draws its' texture from the table. If you're not sure, then I would just use the design tool, choose the item, click on the design tool and get rid of the recolors you don't like.

If it deals of a recolor of a Maxis object you don't have any trouble because original meshes are never touched by the game. If it is recolors of new meshes, the mesh will remain and SimPe can identify orphan meshes I suppose. Meshes that do not have any recolor will simply not appear in game, but to find out meshes you can run even Windows search. Recolors are more difficult to find out, so the best is to delete them First, and this is better from inside the game.
