I remember there being a way to combine cc package files together into one to save on the games loading. Is there a similar way to do this for the sims 4?
Also, I find this to be very helpful: Make a backup folder somewhere - within it, name a folder what the package name of all the combined CC will be, and paste the separate packages into it. Just in case something doesn't like being combined.
Here's my backups as an example:
In TS4, I title the packages with their original name + how many recolors/whatever is in it [The example one is named "4EverSims_yfAcc_HighWaistedJeggings_9_colors"]
In TS3 I would bundle them up by creator, as I had a lot of stuff from specific people. You end up with a few extra packages, but it's easier to go "meh, I want to pull out that pair of shoes by MA$ without having to repackage every single clothing item I have..."
Yes s4pe let's you combine cc. I even use it to prevent random townies showing cc on them and make clothes available for formal, party, athletic, etc. wherever you want them to show.
I've just tried using S4PE and following the tutorial posted by rosemow and it does not work. I get an error every time I try to import, does my being a Windows 8 user have anything to do with it?
I have been having trouble merging CC, too. It just don't work for me...
Could this be because I use Win8.1??? I even tried with the compatibility mode( Win7), though.

Here is a link to a full tutorial with pictures. It's for TS3, but it's done exactly the same.
