Sims 2 Style But Elders Keep Dying?

(1/2) > >>

TisiphoneStar:
I'm not 100% if this is a bug or a feature but I've used the optional file to enable Sims 2 style aging, so that my other sims don't die when I'm playing other sims; however, I still get messages that other elder sims in the neighbourhood keep dying of old age. Aren't they supposed to be suspended in time? Should I be checking story progression on or off if I want to enable this feature? Thanks!

Sorry about my n00b-ness.  8)

Elders still died in the Sims 2, so you will want to turn story progression off

Hope this helps :)

J. M. Pescado:
Elders dying isn't apparently a function of aging, which is why it is not being caught by aging: Elders just randomly die.

Kinda like real life then, right?

Claeric:
Elders just don't technically age at all. The bar goes up because after a set amount of time, they'll die, but before that, they have a random chance of just dropping dead each day. So when aging is off that bar goes nowhere, but that random chance is still there. I think Story Progression won't even stop this- it'll still happen with story progression turned off.
