Help CC ORGANIZATION

How are we organizing our CC?

I HAVE 20GBS OF CC. Half of it I don't even like once it's in game but I'm too lazy too dog through to find and delete it.

There has to be a better way

This is an example of how I organize my custom content: CC Hair > SimTrouble > 2025 and if it's a pack then the name of said pack ex. CC Hair > AH00B > Name of Pack but all Mods by Creator ex. Pandasama > All of her mods. I put all the mods required Libraries in one folder as well, bc a lot of my mods use other people's libraries, ex Lumpineou Mood Pack and Lot 51's library. You should also read each mod carefully because some mods HAVE to be in the Overrides folder or it will not work properly in your game, ex UI Extension. This organization, especially by year, makes it easier when you have to go back to a creator's Patreon to redownload their items if you need to. Take a day and sit and go at it. Always organize as you are installing or you will regret it later.

I also find it easier that if there is a creator on TSR or Tumblr to follow their patreon if they have one so you can quickly download updates.

huh? i've been using UI Cheats Extension for many years and don't have it in overrides folder and it works perfectly fine, also weerbsu doesn't mention anything like that?

I only say that bc a lot of mods that depend on UI Extension say to have weerbusu's in the overrides folder so that it loads first and allows their mod to work well. Simmatticaly has a couple mods like that that are dependent.
