Beau Broke has a split personality, I think!
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, I'm reopening this thread because, would you believe, it has happened to the youngest Broke! He now has a memory of meeting himself and his file is also over 1MB!
Does anyone know why this happens and what can be done about it - is it just that they have an enormous number of memories and invisible memories?
Ancient Sim:
In my game, Beau's file icurrently stands at 809KB, although there is also a bak file there from last December which is 1.04MB, so his file has actually got smaller even though he's been played more. The third Broke son in my game has a 1.04MB file. There are several larger files - Alexander Goth's is 1.08MB, for instance. By far the largest though is Bella Goth's. A lot of people have commented that she starts the game with a much larger file than anyone else's (over 1MB) and in my game now hers is 2.19MB, more than 5 times the size of Mortimer's. There is no reason for this, she started play as an adult and lived a pretty uneventful life, she also has fewer memories than the majority of my Sims. Does make me wonder (as it has made other people wonder) whether something is hidden in Bella's file, perhaps for use in a further expansion ... (something along the lines of The Sims 2: Return of the Bella, that sort of thing).
ZephyrZodiac:
At least my Beau and Keanu are not alone, then! Funny, though, none of my CAS sims displays this wierdness, and one couple at least have had just as many hours play as the Brokes!
(I'm glad we're still talking, by the way! I really did try to PM you, twice, but each time I had the message refused.)

It happens that just now I am playing the Broke family. Beau's file is 1.09 MB, but I don't see any weird memories about playing with himself, or meeting himself.
If you used the Enhanser, and saw that he is a known sim and best friend with himself - you have to UNCHECK all the checked rectangles: Beau likes himself 100/100, but all the rectangles, including "known sim", MUST BE empty (unchecked).
I think the handheld play, before you used the handheld fix, caused the self-relation. I play Beau AFTER the handheld fix was installed, and see nothing unusual.
ZephyrZodiac:
Thanks, Gali. Actually, I used SimPE 0.36, although I do have SiEnhancer as well. I don't exactly understand which files I can uncheck - or delete - as the case may be.
However, since so many people are reporting that their files of Beau and his brother are equally large, I guess I'm worrying about nothing! And Keanu doesn't have a handheld now, as he gave it to Dustin's son Justin - but I keep getting the want to play handheld, not to buy one! I guess some part of the game isn't aware that he no longer owns a handheld!
