Deleted 2: Electric Boogaloo!

Yes there's a real mess in most Maxis created 'hoods. Most of us use the clean templates in the War room instead of the originals.
Deleting unused genetics files will corrupt the other genetics files - you'll probably lose the recessive genetics data for all the other sims. I think Ancient Sim might have been the one to find this out the hard way. I'm surprised you didn't find something about it when you searched the board.
I'm hoping someone's going to clean up the Free Time template sometime soon. I had a go myself to get rid of the simbin families and the files were too big a mess for me to be confident I'd fixed it all.

I used the one IAmTheRad uploaded in the Empty Templates thread in Peasantry: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,4306.msg317272.html#msg317272
It seemed to work just fine in my game!

Thanks. I did do a board search but could only find multiple posts saying that deleting the DNA was bad, nothing saying why exactly it was bad/what sort of badness it might cause. I have been using the clean templates up until now, but then, because I hate myself, I decided to try making my own. I found that the extra DNA seems to have been deleted in the clean templates I downloaded from here, too.
I'll just leave the DNA well alone then.

I have always read "bad" at MATY to mean "will contribute to your lots/sims/hoods corrupting and becoming a big fiery ball visible from space".
As you see, "bad" has a certain efficiency of expression going for it.

Yeah. I was just sort of curious as to why deleting the DNA files would cause this, while it's okay to delete SWAFs and relationships, etc.
