'''Memories''' are collected by Sims in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' and, ''[[The Sims 3:]]'' and ''[[The Sims Generations4]]''.
 
A list of memories can be found [[List of Memories|here]].
==The Sims 2==
{{See also|List of Memories|Vacation Mementos}}
Memories are stored in a panel in the [[Sim]]'s Simology tab. There are positive and negative memories, and some memories can be either positive or negative, depending on the Sim's [[Aspiration (The Sims 2)|aspiration]] or [[secondary aspiration]]{{Vgversion|TS2:FT}}. For example, [[Knowledge]] Sims collect positive memories for being [[Alien abduction|abducted]] by [[alien]]s, and [[Romance]] Sims collect negative memories for getting [[Marriage|married]]. Sims can collect memories for events that happen to [[Family relationships#The Sims 2|their relatives]], and may continue to do so even after [[death]].
 
Memories are usually used as a subject of a conversation, in addition to [[interest]]s. Recent memories are likely to be the conversation topic, and will eventually wearweaken offto andthe point of not becomebeing a topic anymoreany more. Negative memories can be spread by gossip. Sims who have heard a piece of gossip can pass it on to other Sims as well. This is because Sims accumulate gossip memories which do not appear in the memories panel, but which can be viewed with [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]]. AGossip topiccan of the gossip isbe started by Sims who witnessed a bad experience, or spread by those who heard the story itself from other Sims via gossip or chat.{{clarify}} Since invisible gossip memories can accumulate to the point of causing problems, the [[FFS Lot Debugger]] from [[More Awesome Than You|MATY]] has options to remove them.
 
Most premade Sims start out with memories about their past life. [[Townie]]s and [[NPC]]s may also have memories, though this is not consistent. Sims created in [[Create a Sim]] will have the appropriate memories of any relationships they start out with, such as memories of engagement and [[marriage]] if they are created with a spouse. If a Sim is created without a complete family structure (for instance, if a parent is created without a spouse), their memories will use the [[Mystery Sim]] as a placeholder.
 
In ''[[Bon Voyage]]'', a new memory feature is added. A suitcase icon appears in Sim's memories panel. Clicking it will show the Sim's [[vacation memento]]s that were collected while going on [[Vacationing|vacation]]. Vacationing Sims will receive a title based on the number of mementos they have collected. This is only a trivial feature, and collecting all of the vacation mementos will not give any sort of reward to a Sim. Each Sim has his or her own vacation mementos.
 
Memories cannot normally be removed in-game without the use of mods or hacked objects. Memories can be removed using [[SimPE]], although removing certain memories can corrupt the neighborhood. In SimPE, any memories that are colored black or blue are safe to remove.<ref>https://modthesims.info/showthread.php?p=3919115#post3919115</ref> If ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life|Apartment Life]]'' is installed, a [[witch]] or warlock can cast the ''Tabula Rasa'' [[Spells (The Sims 2: Apartment Life)|spell]] on another Sim, which will erase their memories.
 
Positive and negative memory types can be altered with SimPE. To make a memory positive, the player must change the hexadecimal code in the top row "00:" to "0x0000". To make a memory negative, the player must change the hexadecimal code in the top row "00:" to "0x0004".

The memory system in ''The Sims 3'' has been reported to bloat save game file sizes, and has been linked to a number of [[save game error]]s. Deleting memories in-game does not help, as the resources are not actually removed from the game. Players can avoid this issue by disabling the memory system entirely, although it will not removing existing snapshots; these can be removed using [[S3PE]].<ref>https://www.nraas.net/community/How-to-use-S3PE-to-clean-up-your-save-game</ref><ref>https://modthesims.info/t/459070</ref> There are, however, reports that the feature in-game to disable memories does not work all the time.<ref>https://www.nraas.net/community/Memories</ref>
 
==The Sims 4==
Memories return in the update introduced by ''[[The Sims 3: Generations]]''.<ref name="Interview">http://www.computerandvideogames.com/296849/interviews/the-sims-3-generations-we-love-hearing-from-the-community/</ref> The Sims will collect them; it's possible for the player to change a Sim's memories. Instead of using icons to represent memories, the in-game camera will take a snapshot of the memory and, when enabled, will notify what memory occurred.
In ''The Sims 4'', the memory system is a mixture of the one in ''The Sims 3'' and the photo album in ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2''. Players can use all of the screenshots they have taken to make memories. Each memory can also have its own [[emotion]]. The emotion of the memory depends on what emotion the selected Sim was feeling when the screenshot was taken, so it is possible to have memories of a Sim doing romantic socials that are still [[Playful (emotion)|playful]] memories, or a Sim interacting with their enemy that are still [[happy]] memories. Having a Sim reminisce on a memory will give them a [[moodlet]], which gives the Sim an emotion the memory is locked in to.

A tool to create memories will be available. Any user-made memories require a picture taken by the player, and will also require a title. If the camera is not on the same lot as the Sim in the active household who is receiving the memory, the memory will have a placeholder for the picture and a gray background. If the Sim receiving the memory is not in the active household, the memory will have a watermarked background depicting whether the memory is positive, neutral, or negative. Editing a memory provides a share function which can either upload the memory to the Sims 3 website or to Facebook as a status update. Players who upload memories may get items from the store (according to the number of memories uploaded).{{clarify}}
