I noticed today after moving my main family from Sunset Valley to Appaloosa Plains that their save folder only went from 300 mb to 295 mb.
Well that's not much at all so I had a closer look.
Something called TravelDB.package is 135mb down from 195 mb in Sunset Valley
AppaloosaPlains_0x0c50c56d.nhd is 159 mb up from 68.9 mb in Sunset Valley
AppaloosaPlains_0x0c50c56dExportDB.package is only 30.8 kb -down from 6.26 mb that it was in Sunset Valley
This is my Chinese Sim, she has traveled to all three places. With her husband two of the times and With the Clavels one of the times or twice.. 4 or 5 times traveled.
============
Looking at the other files ..
My non traveling Sim in Bridgeport -has never traveled anywhere.
NHD is 28.3 mb
TravelDB is 821 kb
ExportDB is 187 kb
=======
The sim that has traveled only to Egypt and only once.
ExportDB is 1.54 mb
NHD is 16.6 mb
TravelDB is 10.3 mb
==============
What are these files and why are some of them so huge?
Thank you -s-
-as an aside-
The man from EA Sims 3 help had no answers for me.
