What's your longest running save file?

I knew you can track how many days have pasted ingame by looking at your scrapbook memories. But I didn't know that if you hover over the day/time block it also shows you. Mine is 46 weeks and 2 days.

    How do you know how many weeks have gone by? Does the game counts it? If so where can i find that info?

    You can see it by hovering the cursor over the clock :)

    So my save is in 18 weeks now :)
    It's not my longest save ever but it is since 2013 :lol:
  • I got to 78 weeks on a crummy laptop. No mods or CC, no moving worlds, but the performance and especially the loading times were in the toilet by the time it ended. Down the line I opened it up on my current desktop and it was much more playable. The temptation to load it with CC is overwhelming though.
  • My current Save (The Rivers Save) is currently in it's sixth week, while my Bridgeport Save is still in it's first week
  • Technically, something like 12 weeks. The save itself can get corrupted and then I move all households to a clean save.
    It has happened to me a few times with my ongoing story/save in Sunset Valley. So the dashboard does not refelect the real duration of the storyline.
    As far as town story - I've been playing my main game save in Sunset Valley since 2016. As I mentioned, I cannot rely on the current save in the count of weeks, however I do keep memories for some sims (which can indicate) and I have sims with memories from ~600 sim-days ago. Which can be ~85 weeks.
  • I have a familly that I have been playing for a really long time, but unfortunately I can't say how many weeks I played, because I had to move the familly to a new save two times because of save corruption :/ I can only guess that it's at least 20 weeks
