How large is your main save file?

Mine is 24,999 KB.

I don't understand KB and MB, I know what the letters stand for, just don't understand the size. My largest is 15,509 KB. I've been working on that one pretty close to a year now.

No idea - how do you find out?

I just restarted so not very big, but that’ll change pretty fast probably, especially once I have all the sims and lots placed.

I've had my main save file for about 2 years I believe. It's 4,051KB

1. Type "This PC" in the windows search bar.
2. Go to whatever drive your Sims 4 game is on. It's either (C:), (D:), or (E:)
3. From there: Users>>Documents>Electronic Arts>The Sims 4>saves

To find your file, look to see what slot it's on. The number indicates what slot it was created on. Your main save should probably be the largest, and to see the size look on the very left under the size category.

I think this is a tricky question, bc it makes me do math, lol. 1,000KB in 1 MB so if you move the decibel over to the thousands to turn 22,154KBs into MBs, the OP would have 22MB. Yay math!

I haven't tried the rotational play style yet, and I haven't played with only one household since the beginning, so I don't have a 'main' save file. I start a new save game with usually only one Sim for every challenge or general play session. Across all of my saves the biggest one I could find is one of my most recent at around 7.5MB.

My base saves are between 5 and 7 MB, with all lots and sims in them. As I never play with one save very long, I've never had one get over 10MB

Bit is the smallest
Byte: 8 bits
Kilobyte (KB): 1024 bytes.
MegaByte (MB): 1024 kilobytes
GigaByte (GB): 1024 megabytes

Dividing by 1024 it's roughly 15.145MB

Now there is a misconception that was taking advantage by hardware sellers that it's only 1000 to byte so they can get larger numbers on storage disks to sell cheaply, but you notice that some of the harddrive isn't available
That's cause (math fun ahead)
1 TB (so 1,000,000,000,000 bytes)-divide by 1024
= 976,562,500KB /1024
= 953,674.3MB /1024
= 931.32GB
Where you're left questioning wait where's my other 70 GB making up to an actual TB, this is the reason a lot of hard drives never show their full capacity cause a TB drive is actually 930GB~

Holy moly! I’m impressed.
