While save game file sizes are, in theory, a problem in all ''The Sims'' games, it became especially prominent in ''The Sims 3'' with the introduction of the [[memories#The Sims 3|memories]] system in [[The Sims 3/Patch 22|patch 22]]. Unlike the memory system in ''The Sims 2'', a snapshot is taken when a memory is created, which is stored in the Sim's scrapbook. These snapshots take up a lot of space and quickly bloat save game file sizes. Worse off, even if the snapshots are deleted in-game, they are not actually removed from the game files, so they will continue to bloat the save files. Fortunately, disabling the memory system completely solves this problem, although it will not affect existing snapshots.<ref group="n">There have been reports that the in-game function to disable memories does not always work. If it does not work for you, there are mods to help. [https://www.nraas.net/community/Memories Source].</ref>
Even without the memory system, save game files will still naturally grow
In both cases, a third-party tool called [[S3PE]] is needed to properly remove these resources. This game guide will show players how to reduce the size of their save game files, which can help reduce the risk of save and load game errors and potentially increase saving and loading times.
