Hi, Fi! You’re always so helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to ts2, so I was hoping you could help me once more. I’ve read a bit about the compressorizer to help shrink cc, but I haven’t been able to find anything about sending cc through it twice. For example, if I run something through it that the original creator already compressorized, will it corrupt the file? I guess I’m nervous about doing it and I was hoping you had some advice/experience with it. Thanks. :)

Awww, shucks! I try to be as helpful as possible (although sometimes my knowledge fails me :3). As far as I know, sending something through the compressorizer a second time shouldn’t have any effect on it. I ran my entire downloads folder through the compressorizer about a week ago, and there were definitely files in there that the original creator had already compressed. Those files just remained the same size. 🙂 However, I have heard reports of some Simmers experiencing issues with their game after running their entire downloads folder through the compressorizer, so I’d recommend making backups of your cc before trying it! 🙂 

My downloads folder went from 13 GB to 8.6 GB, which seems impressive but I haven’t noticed any difference in load times or anything. 😛
