Okay, I'm caving.

I'm going to reinstall Sims 1.

I expect I will neglect it once I get Sims 2 but that won't happen for at least a week.

I can't help but wonder if I'll have a siliar thing happen with The Sims as did with SimCity. I didn't mind Classic SimCity, I got to know it better during the years before I got Fëanor and all I had was a hand-me-down SNES.
I played SimCity 2000 way back before then, on Grey's computer - the first computer of any note in my household. I loved it.
I bought my own copy when we first moved to Brisbane (as an adult - not that time way back when I was 2-3) and Noddy had a computer that was parked in the spare room.
I ended up having to buy one of those sets of half-a-dozen old games to replace that disk since I took it to Tafe once and left it in one of the library computers and it obviously got taken by whoever the next person was that got on that compy.
I got SimCity 3000 at some point, tried it but ended up finding it too troublesome so I reverted back to SC2000, where I had no nonsense cheat codes, a game that I could play without the codes if I wanted, and the ability to create custom tiles and tile sets. My personal tile sets get named after stars, the first one was Epsilon (yeah, not actually a star but greek letters remind me of how stars are named), the second Sirius (must have been during my time in the HP fandom) and my current Alderbaran.

Like I said, I hope I don't have the same happen with Sims 2.

Meanwhile it's going to be fun sorting through all my skins again and shuffling them all into their proper folders again. The C&C stuff is horribly messed up, I'll have to totally clean it up because the behavioural mods are mixed in with the object mods.


I am thinking this time of making the Cloud/Seph household include Zack and Aerith instead. Squall can go live with Seifer, Irvine and Zell.

ETA: Blah, reinstalling all the extras I've downloaded over time is painful, especially when I have to extract them again and pull them out of the folders that extraction generates so I can dump them in the Downloads folder.
I need to make new recovery folders.
