I've created a post on making a batch file to help delete the game's cache files.

Clean Sims.bat File - A Batch File to Help Delete Cache Files

I'm hoping my explanation isn't too complicated and is at least somewhat easy to follow.

When I first heard about using a batch file (back in 2012) I tried it. I couldn't get it to work and gave up on it. Went back to manually cleaning up the files. I came back around to the idea of trying to make a new one to see how it works and if it works well for me.  I am happy to report, I'm able to to get the file that I share to work well for me and wanted to share just in case anyone wanted to the file as well.

Is deleting those five files manually really that bothersome? I don't personally mind it, plus, I get to delete error trap files as well. I really dislike having those in my folder...they stick out with their long names and...error messages. *has nervous ticks* Yes, I'm slightly neurotic when it comes to things that are out of place

As for playing with pets - yes, if you set the adoption of pets to false in NRaas Overwatch, unplayed households will no longer adopt pets. And I use NRaas Register as well to remove strays and wild animals.

[MrsFlynn]

No they aren't. After using the batch file for a little while I ended up finding it just as easy to delete those files and Nraas error files manually. I'm more used to and comfortable with cleaning out my Sims 3 folder manually.

My hubby too created a .bat file for me for the exact same purpose. He is a software engineer, computer savvy, and a programming nerd

Hot tea and feshly baked cookies for you guys - and much love <3

Creating batch files are somewhat complicated if you're not quite sure what you're doing. That's why I hesitated at first with sharing it.

My hubby too though he never created any batch files for  me.

Thank you. I'll save my tea and cookies for a snack a bit later this afternoon. I had breakfast very early this morning so now I need to have a real lunch instead of just my usual snack.

I'm assuming he did all other kinds of wonderful things for you though <3

That would be telling.

I decided to check in on RV since I added Showtime. I was delighted to get a notice that there were several entertainment venues available so I placed a couple of them to check them out. I placed a karaoke bar across from where I have my festival grounds. There is discovered a bunch of people standing in line (not sure what for) and a bunch of objects on the grounds that I didn't place. Is that a result of showtime?

Of course, now I'm considering the World of Wonder venue.

The mechanical bull is one of my favorite activity objects from Showtime along with the PlasmaPunch Gyroscopic Conductor (misc electronic objects).

I don't know why people would be in line other than if they were waiting for the venue to open.

I have the World of Wonder venue as well. It requires a 50x50 lot if I remember correctly. I usually place it on Sunset Valley's one available big lot.
