Ack..bugginess..anybody want to take a stab at this one
skandelouslala:
Perhaps it has been discussed before..sorry if it has...I'd appreciate it though it anybody could point me in the right direction.
Last night my sims started going quirky after age transitions.
I first noticed it in a household where a sim aged into an elder. Two of them to be exact. They would age normally but then about 1 sim day later they would revert back to their adult looks. Their age bar would be correct...but they no longer looked like elders.
Then the most extreme cases came with my toddlers transitioning to children and my children transitioning to teens.
They would age as normal but after 1 sim day their icons would revert back to the child or toddler icons. Any wants concerning the sim would also show up with their child/toddler icon for other sims. After about 2 days the sim child/teen in question would become invisible. I could still control them, but they were...invisible. ANd I seem to have no way of getting them back.
This has happened in every household I've played recently where somebody transitions to a new age.
I have all the same downloads that I had when I first installed NL minus the ones that proved to cause problems. I haven't downloaded anything since then accept new object meshes/objects/clothes...none of these seem to be causing the problems.
I've honestly had more problems with this game since installing the patch. I've even done a reinstall and am still having issues. I'm half tempted to reinstall everything..put in critical fixes and say screw the patch if my game keeps acting up..it's starting to get very frusturating. I'm about to upload some pics so you can see some of what I'm talking about.

Okay here's hoping photobucket isn't completely retarded...sometimes it doesn't work for me
First we have the dreamer family
Maemi is a child now...she is posing in the child pose... but obviously in the family screen she is still a toddler...when I load up the house she invisible..her icon is that of the toddler version of her
Next is the Pleasant Family...Seth is holding his niece..he is supposed to be a teen but his icon is still a child. Again he has aged into a teen..become invisible..but still controllable and his icon shows a child instead of a teen

It happened to me too several times. You have to "change appereance" of the transiting sim, by buying new clothes, plan outfits, and put them in front of the mirror. The simulator doesn't accept the default clothes they are given during the transition, and treats them as if they didn't make transition at all.
Sometimes my sim is already a student, but in the SimPe I see his teen picture; only after I "change appereance", I receive the real appereance of him.
skandelouslala:
Interesting..I would have never connected the two.
Of course I went tinkering around with Simpe before I read your reply to give it a try lol..so the elders will probably die very early deaths now..but ah well.

Just use SimPE to put their ages back to the beginning of the elder stage.
