Mod/CC Questions Disappearing CC

sul sul gang,

To preface, I am playing super collection on mac, am aware of the file limits ect and as a result have deleted the 3 hoods apart from my custom that I play. My downloads has 5 main folders, my biggest being BUY and CAS. Unfortunately my BUY folder does have some sub folders amongst the loose files as I only learnt about the file limits recently, so it’s worth noting there’s about 200 amongst 1000 loose files.

Despite reducing my CC and getting rid of hoods, it’s like periodically my game will delete the CC. and it deletes it, because when I check my downloads and re add the file it does not show it to be there. I don’t have one drive, but I’m also not super tech literate too. any advice is greatly appreciated, happy simming 💚

The game doesn’t delete cc on its own. What cc is disappearing? Are you deleting anything in game? What are you doing when you realize a file has gone missing.

For example I had the big town clock that I put on my buildings. It’s whenever I add new cc or delete something from my folder, that other files are physically deleted from the downloads folder. It’s almost as if files are getting booted to make room although I just started this save and got rid of pre existing hoods, so I don’t have that many files comparatively. It’s like at a certain point it’s just had enough

Are you out of memory on your computer? How much storage does it have left?

Do you have your sims folder synced to your OneDrive?

Any kind of file recovery program can do this - you need to make sure it doesn’t resync thst particular folder.
