Deleted 2: Electric Boogaloo!
Zazazu:
I've retried prepping those sims three times. I get no confirmation message showing the number. I had done nothing other than kill them beforehand. This is my first batch of townies to kick it. So....there's really nothing for me to have done wrong with these seven sims. And it's not like I'm unfamiliar with the procedure; I Deleted 2'ed at least 90 sims in Queen's Cove. It also worked for the other nine.
Now, I know what the actual numbers are because I can see them in SimPE. This is no issue. I can delete the SimDescription files for them and the character files. But I don't want to do it without LotDebugger doing its thing correctly. I'd rather have all the dead sim bits in my files rather than floating memories and relationships with no references clogging the works. Would attaching an affected character file help?

Ok, I did this before, but this time I screwed up.
I prepped 9 sims (custom townies) for deletion. 3 of them have family ties that I stupidly forgot to sever. One of those 3 is father and grandfather to my playable sims. I haven't deleted SDCSs yet of those 3 yet, or reseted Sim Creation Index or deleted their character files. Now what should I do? Is it possible to restore those sims somehow? My last back-up is not very fresh, ofcourse. I suck.
Also, is it safe to delete SCOR instances (not for those 3 screwed up sims of mine, but in general)?

Sorry, but changes made to my previous post just wouldn't stick, so here I am, double-posting ::)
"ETA - Just thought of something. If I sever the family ties of all the sims that are related to the screwed up sims, will that solve the problem? Or I'll just make a bigger mess? Or all is lost already?
Say, my playable kid's grandad is prepped for deletion. I sever the kid's family ties with InSim. Will that ruin kid's memories of 'Learned to...' and stuff? Will I be able to properly restore the kid's ties with mommy and daddy?"
coralleane:
Is it safe to delete related Sims if you delete the entire family? For example, I don't want the families that came with some of the expansion packs. I've not placed them in a lot yet. I'm assuming it's not safe to delete them from the Sim bin from what I've read, but could I delete them (using Deleted 2) if I make sure to get them all, because then there wouldn't be any relatives left to be mucked up by their absence? Or will it still cause problems in some mystifying and sadistic EA way?

Why not just use inSim to sever their family ties with each other, then delete them? It might be an extra step to take, but at least it will help make sure you don't break anything.
