Delete Portfolio Pictures

[icke]

Hi everybody, I wonder if there are some news on this toppic. I love the game and play it a lot, but by now it takes almost 15 min to load. I really have to get rid of unnecessary data. Maybe somone knows where the pictures are stored so I can clear just that one file. Or would it help to disable the HGTV DLC? As I understand it, the portfolio comes with that component. Thank you in advance

Disable cloud remote saves first or it will drop them back, then go to
C:\Users\User Name\AppData\LocalLow\Empyrean\House Flipper Game >Gallery
cut and paste them elsewhere.
Start game make a new save first exit game then enable cloud.
Should be all good with old saves reloading from cloud.

Thanks for your reply but unfortenately it's not what I meant. I should have made myself clearer. I'm looking for a way to delete the before/after pictures when selling a house (which appear in the portfolio), not the gallery photos.

Hey!
The portfolio files can be found in these 2 folders:
C:\Users\...\AppData\LocalLow\Empyrean\House Flipper Game\Profiles\Profile 1\CatchedTextures_AfterSummary.dat
C:\Users\...\AppData\LocalLow\Empyrean\House Flipper Game\Profiles\Profile 1\CatchedTextures_BeforeSummary.dat

Cheers!

So we CAN delete the portfolio? And it won't hurt the game?
Oh finally... I'm at the point I absolutely hate the portfolio function, it takes forever to get past - and as house flipper is the one game that takes the longest by far to load (Sims 4 got completely beat, wow), if cleaning out those folders should help the game load a bit faster? Even better. Thank you!
Still hoping to get a setting to just turn it off one day.

Small edit:
Removed about 1.7G of portfolio, then played the game. I think it loaded faster, not sure if that was my imagination or not, but either way everything worked as normal while playing. I guess I'll see how things go once my current house is ready to be sold.

Why not make an option to disable the whole thing?

I would love such an option! Especially if they add separate options for jobs and purchased houses. Or that we can cancel the pictures before they're taken, so we have more freedom with what goes in the portfolio. I don't need email jobs there, as an example. Most map jobs too, since I do certain jobs more than once.

Portfolio overtime takes up a LOT of storage space on the computer, I wish there was an option to disable it or a easier way to delete the photos. I tried deleting them with this method but they are still in the game, just as blank white pictures, and now every new portfolio i get is white. I dont want to permanently disable the feature like i apparently did by following this method, I just wish to temporarily disable it so it stops clogging my harddrive when I play with photos in my C Drive. Or at the very least I would like a way to change the drive they are stored in because my C Drive is cluttered enough as is

[Kirana Starr]

also the workshop is bugged and it installed two of every item I got so my game is super cluttered

[Greyark]

I can't find any of those on my c and I only have the one ssd drive. oh never mind. The files were hidden and i just had to unhide them.

[BeastHunter]

Could you please implement an option to disable the portfolio?

I deleted the files but they keep showing in game, any help? :)
