collection file help

[lezboo]

Is there anyway you can make a collection file before you download a set
without a collection file? Some creator still don't make collection files with
there set and because I have so many downloads I still can't file have the
stuff after I open the game so I can then make a collection file. I can't stop
downloading. Any other suggestions?

Well, two suggestions you could do for having so much custom content. Either you can organize your downloads (http://nene.modthesims2.com/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Organizing_Custom_Content) or find a support group, lol. I probably need to do that too. I'm addicted to downloading!

You know, also (you probably already know this), but you can build your own collections while you're already in game.

Try the Collection Creator: http://www.djssims.com/index.php?category=1&subcat=5

I haven't used it in a while so can't remember exactly how it works but I think you can point it at a folder and tell it to make a collection file for all the content in that folder. So if you're organised in the way you download and sort your downloads by creator and/or set as you're downloading, you should be able to make collections fairly easily. Just keep in mind that it only reads .package files so you'll have to unzip/unrar before you try to make the collection.

OUI. I feel like a retard, lol. I just downloaded that the other week.
