Question about uninstalling stuff packs through Steam
I've discovered I really don't like some of the theme packs I installed through steam and want to uninstall them. I googled it but it said that although it can be donen it can cause error problems. Has anyone uninstalled anything through steam and is there a way to do it? I'm finding all the clothing and hairs that come with some packs are really loading up my CAS and it takes forever to load stuff that I would never use.
To uninstall something with Steam I launch the Steam client, go to my Library, right click on the game, and choose Uninstall. To uninstall specific DLC (like TS3 packs): right click on the game in your Library, choose Properties. In the Properties window that pops up click on the DLC tab, and I think all you have to do is uncheck the DLC you don't want installed. Steam should automatically update your game files from what I remember.
I have no idea if uninstalling TS3 packs would cause error problems. I didn't have any stuff packs when I played TS3 on Steam.
Isn't there a setting in MC/CAS to hide items by pack? Are Stuff Packs not listed there?

Thanks brappl if I can do it in MC that would help a lot. I can't use ECE unfortunately, because I'm on Steam and it doesn't work with Steam. I've decided to start a new sims 3 folder and before I start playing my new setup world, I'm going to get my game cleaned up. First to go are these stuff packs!
I uninstalled all my stuff packs long ago. Too much of the same ole same ole. I spent a lot of time blacklisting with EasyCASP but after a time ended up hiding 7 EP's using MC. There were still so many duplicate items and things like boots assigned for swimwear. There are a few items I liked but found so much great CC that made it all worthwhile.
