How Big is Your Plugins Folder?

[mittfh]

3.02GB at the moment. Gulp!

So where's it all gone?

BSC - 886 MB
BSC Essentials - 61 MB (includes the texture packs)
BSC Props - 1.27 GB. Evidently if I decide to datpack it I'll have to split it in two.
Buildings - 150 MB (essentially, almost any RCI building not from BSC)
NAM - 46 MB
PEGPROD - 152 MB
SimGoober - 314 MB

I'll probably have a mini-prune sometime, as I know there are several power plants and ports that I never use, and I rarely use ploppable RCI (apart from shopping malls and 30 St. Mary Axe). I'll probably take the hunt through the menus, with a paper notepad and pen handy (much quicker than Alt + Tabbing to notepad.exe or taking oodles of menu screenshots!)

Mine is now over 4.3GB and I know theres a lot of stuff in there that I'll never use but for me to try to figure out what it's actually called is going to be impossible since much of the stuff I have may not even have a description, so one of these days when I feel better I'll just have to wipe out all saves, and the entire plugins folder and start all over again, slowly collecting only the stuff that I will end up using on a regular basis.  I hate not knowing what file contains what and looking through thousands of files with a viewer of sorts trying to spot one likely image is not my fancy.

Oh noes Pat, I've overtaken you. My folder is now 3.62 GB  .

[Pat]

LoL there frdrcklim and to think Ive only jump up one more from 3.44 to 3.45 gb lol....

982 MB, but you can multiply it by three, because I have three copies of it
(One sorted by authors, one by site, and one by type of plug-in )

The size of mines is over 1.2 GB! Just move a copyed one into my dad'a computer as backup.

[frdrcklim]

Maybe someone should make a list or complete list on who has the highest plugin folder. That would make this thread interesting

My plugin folder is a trim 1.6 GB. I've used nearly everything in it, which is pretty good considering I only have one city built

1 gig, however i just started redownloading stuff after an issue about a week ago. It will probably be about 5 gig total

[blade2k5]

Mine is sitting around 3gb even, but I still have a lot of new stuff I haven't added in yet.

[BarbyW]

Currently my playing plugins weighs in at over 3.5GB. I have a packed folder of 3.2GB then assorted unpacked folders like X-Ports and NAM.
I have a current game loading time of 2 mins.

My plug in folder is 10.4 G and contains 19,331 files and I've still got about 1 Gig waiting to be uploaded.  I like variety.  Problem is it takes ages to open a file.  Dunno what to do about that...

[CraigKingOfIreland]

Mines a nice 5.44 GB  It was about a gigabyte bigger until I got the DAT packer to get rid of all the useless crap 

[Haljackey]

Time for some cleaning!  Mine has swelled to 3.2GB!

It was only 2GB about a year ago:

Mine hit exactly 2GB today  .  I should clean it up a bit

About 500MB of that is from the STEX collections CD and DVD, which I installed recently.  A ton of good stuff in there!

[kj3400]

Wow hal! My folder is about half that (1.58 gigs), not counting the plugins I have yet to add. It was pretty big before I datpacked most of it. Not sure how big it used to be then.

[Heblem]

My plugins folder currently now is 155 MB (only using for a MD that im preparing, using only my content from LBT)

[Pat]

hmm right now I have no clue what size I am at lol.... All I know is I am cutting out the fat and trimming down what I dont use or want any more.....  I do agree there Hal its time for Winter Cleaning here actually lol....

[frdrcklim]

When will it end 

3.62 GB to 3.76 GB

Yeah, I think it's time to trim down on stuff. I know I don't use most of the canals anymore. They're pretty good, but either it no longer fits my preference or I lack imagination when I'm building with this  .

If I add all of them together, mine would be 7.83 GB.  However, mine are probably arranged a little differently than most folks.  My plugins folders are actually themes (i.e., US, UK, Euro, Asian, etc.) and are moved in/out depending on what themed region I'm playing.

I actually want to arrange it like that so that I can just get the styles I want but I've been using the conventional for too long that to rearrange it like that right now would be totally crazy. If it's okay with you, you gotta send me a private message on a more detailed order of your plug-ins. I really want to know more so that it would be easy for me to follow suite  .
