Game keeps generating elderly NPCs
Dragon Slave:
Okay, so it's NPC type 0x0040. At first I thought you meant 40 in decimal which would be 0x0028.
I hate the witches with a passion. I use Two Jeff's visitor controller as it enables banning of specific sims, but it doesn't keep the witches away (my pants are probably too tight). They show up and have just enough time to slow shit in run-time by creating a thunderstorm before the controller kicks in and makes them go *poof*, or before I pause the game and delete them manually. I honestly can't remember what it's come down to, but it's annoying as hell. I don't think the grand vampires show up even half as much as witches.
None of my witches are elders by the way. If you're getting them without AL, you're probably getting some broken fragment of the real thing, so it would make sense that they lack the usual characteristics.
Edit:
Here's a list I made for the ep's past nightlife. There's a few gaps, but some might be missing from my game.

I have all the eps, stuff packs, and store items -- all installed.
This glitch started right after one of my sims bought the Inner Child Toys and Gifts in Bluewater Shopping District.
At first I wondered why my single sims, from other residentual lots, were encountering so many elders on community lots -- then I saw Leeoh's post.
This glitch surprises me -- OFB has been around for a while. However, this glitch is a new one for me. I hate it.
Sooo dreading the uninstall and reinstall process *** a-g-a-i-n ***.

Doesn't work for me either, and I have no conflicts at all. Then again, I've had problems with VC that only seem to be explained by the fact that I never installed BV.

Why do you always assume that the only way to fix something is to reinstall? JFC. I've only ever reinstalled my game once, and yet it's had just as many glitches as everyone else's.
Dragon Slave:
Same here. I've removed and filtered through my cc folders hundreds of times to catch conflicts, but the only time I reinstalled was when I somehow deleted game files through bodyshop. I'm not even sure how I did it, I was running through it so fast, but then I turned the game on and all my NL downtownies were bald and naked. Then it happened again and I lost my OFB clothing and hair. Third time it affected Pets; I had animals with gaping holes in their heads where their ears were supposed to be. Anyway, those were clearly cases of the original files being destroyed or erased. Just about everything else that could go wrong relates to the folders in my documents. Reinstalling is so unnecessary, but sheep swear it.
Zazazu:
That's probably because it's what EA Tech always recommends as initial troubleshooting.
