oh my, that’s a big decision! sounds like it could be a lot of work. I imagine you’d back up what you’ve got atm??? If it went straight to recycle bin I might wince/cry a little bit…
Oh, yeah. I hardly ever really delete anything. Mostly I just dump stuff on the massive networked external hard drive(s) we have. So, if I want it back, I can get it. Of course, the trouble would be finding the stuff I want to restore without restoring the whole broken mess because then I’m back to figuring out what’s broken and what isn’t and...uh, yeah, that would be a project. :)
And, actually, I don’t think the DR’ing I’m thinking of doing would be a terribly big project for me. I’ve already defaulted a lot of the career/NPC outfits, for instance. And when I think about it, I’m perfectly OK with a lot of the Maxis clothes in terms of style. (Like I said, I’m really not that picky. :) ) I’m pickier about texture quality than style, and the stuff from later EPs/SPs has pretty nice textures in terms of not pixellating and things like that. So I’d really only have to focus on stuff from the basegame and the earlier EPs/SPs. Like, maybe Open For Business and older. So it wouldn’t be too bad. I’d just need to psych up and get ‘er done.

there are some cool mix-and-match options stop every pregnant woman wearing the same dress, too.

i got sick of dealing with pregmorphs a while back and decided to just default-replace the maxis maternity wear instead. it means you can’t really control what they wear, but it’s so much less hassle that to me it’s worth it!
I’m kind of getting sick of obsessing over pregmorphs, too. :/ Which is another reason for considering doing this because maybe half of the stuff I have has preg morphs and half doesn’t, and the idea of going through all the meshes and checking for morphs is just....Yeah, it makes me kind of queasy just thinking about it. :)
For adults, I think I would be OK with just defaulting the Maxis maternity wear and removing the “preggos wear anything” mod. I mean, when you get down to it, whatever they wear, even if it’s the terrible Maxis outfits, it’s only for two days, for heaven’s sake. :) The bigger issue for me is teens, since I use Inteen. Inteen comes with outfits for pregnant female teens/YAs -- and those will do well enough for those two days -- but not for males, and my teen/YA males do occasionally get knocked up by aliens, so...I dunno. That being said, I do have the capability of adding preg morphs to meshes, at least for full-body outfits, so there’s that...if I can figure out how to replace the meshes.

For my new game I decided to go for the default replacement option. I really like it and it’s so great to finally see townies with style xD
Oh, I townified all the custom stuff I have, so townies already wear that stuff. Sometimes in...er, interesting...combinations, but... yeah. This would be simpler in that regard, too. Although they can still make “interesting” combinations with the Maxis separates, even when DR’ed, of course. :)
