Title: Cry With Me
Post by: SealJuice on October 25, 2007, 11:51:39 am
Last night I accidentally deleted my entire object collection. I had been downloading since day one. I still have about 100 gigs of clothing, which gives you an idea of how many objects I lost. It's going to take forever to download them again.

I just want some sympathy.

Ouch!... That must've really hurt. I've had similar experience, but since I have a somewhat crappy computer, I *only* lose at most 3 gigs of downloads. And that's nothing compared to you hundreds of gigs.

:oogle:... Wait...  100 gigs of clothes?!  Your downloads folder makes mine look like a byte in comparison.  :shock:

But to loose all of those hard to find objects from the very beginning of the collection must be a doozy to get over.  (I know I still have some objects that are no longer available...)  I'll cry with you, because I know I would break down if it ever happened to me... :bawl:  *passes around Kleenex tissues*

I don't play with that much at one time. I have developed a system for organizing and swapping stuff in and out of game using random tables and charts. It's pretty odd, but it works for me.

I did find a backup I made before I installed Bon Voyage, so it is not as bad as we thought. I lost two months and most sites have their stuff labelled by dates so I can get it all fixed up in a few weeks.

Thanks for the sympathy.

Oh jeez, 100 gigs of files? Wow. Wait, you say that you didn't play with everything all at once. Why..? How do I see how big a downloads file is, and how big it can hold? I think I may have broke mine if there's a limit to how many someone can put in. I DO know that it took about half an hour to back up my game files before I installed SimPE.

There is no limit, but if you put a hundred gigs of custom files in your game, it would take like an hour to launch it.
