- Immediately after installing new content go to the installed Content tab. All the content will be grouped together at the bottom of the list. Making it very easy to remove bad cc. Use Crinricts bad cc list to identify the launcher icons to remove. When you close the launcher or play the game all the content goes random making it very difficult.
- Sim- safe cc- Sim- safe cc. If you purchased a digital version of The Sims 3 (base game, expansion pack, or stuff pack) from Origin, your game is automatically.
SOME SEX AND LITTLE VIOLENCE. Sex 7/10: players can have sex with other sims in bed and in hot tubs. The hot tub one is more graphic because you can turn the camera angle and see under water. The bed one is covered by blankets. The hot tub one is just blurry with jets on. You can also marry girls or boys being a girl.
it’s a weed plant and a bong. um. yeah. i’m sure it will come up so i’ll just say it now - feel free to convert the bong into an accessory for poses.
glass bong with water in it. yup. same as the other one, feel free to convert it to whatever for poses, just give credit. :)

Refresh caches, indices, and thumbnails
These are temporary files that are saved by the game to make loading certain information faster. If these files have incorrect or corrupted data, it may prevent your game from loading. The game will regenerate fresh copies of these files each time it loads, so deleting them is perfectly safe, and it's normal for them to reappear.
When you delete any or all of these files, as their nature is to regenerate, the next time you load Launcher or the game may take a bit longer as all these files need to be refreshed. This is normal and is by design.
Do them in order as follows, one by one and then, test. If that doesn't work, carry on with the second, and then test, and so on.
Cache Files
- To delete your cache files, navigate to The Sims 3 in DOCUMENTS folder.
- Inside, will be a number of cache files. Delete any or all of these files you have. Yes, they would be re-generated when you next start Launcher or the game, that is by design.
| If you have installed or do activities related to | remove |
|---|---|
| CAS parts that appear in Create-A-Sim | CasPartCache.package |
| New objects that would appear in Buy/Build mode | compositorCache.package |
| Mods or Hacks | scriptCache.package |
| New Sims, default skins | simCompositorCache.package |
| Simport-related (maybe?) and other social data, if you use the wall to integrate with your MyPage on thesims3.com site | socialCache.package |
Launcher files
These files appear to be some sort of index or cache repository for the Launcher. If it gets corrupted when Launcher or the game crashed, then the next time you try to start Launcher or load the game, they would either stall and never completely loads, or crash again.

Sims 3 Dcbackup Safe To Delete
Thumbnails
- To delete Thumbnails files, navigate to The Sims 3 in DOCUMENTS folder.
- If you installed a CAS-part or Buy/Build mode object, or anything that has a thumbnail picture, sometimes it is necessary to force the game to refresh its Thumbnails cache.
- One of the patches also introduced In-Game-Advertising to thesims3 Store, and so EA introduces the FeaturedItems folder.
- Delete ALL files inside these folders. They are like the caches above, and would be re-generated fresh if they are removed.

WorldCache
Optional, for Windows only - do NOT do this on a Mac.
Sims 3 Caches Safe To Delete
- To delete WorldCaches, look inside the WorldCaches folder (if you have one) and delete these files inside that folder.
Don't worry if you don't have a WorldCaches folder, or if it's empty - some people have WorldCaches and some don't - it just means that you do not have Riverview, other new worlds, or the new Create-a-World tool installed.
OS X users, please read this post on why this is a bad thing.
