sims not aging

<< < (3/5) > >>

Process Denied:
This has been happening to me randomly.  The first was a uni lot,so I figured it was a controller on the lot that was doing it.  Then I had it happen to another fam,and I had to move them off the Maxis lot to another Maxis lot and the lot became corrupted and I had to move them again.  I played a couple of sim days and left and came back to make sure that I could get back into the lot and I could.  Then the next one was interesting, the lot had parents,two teens, a toddler,and two infants,and everyone aged correctly except for the teens.  I just let it go because the were leaving for uni in a couple of days anyways.  But the game started crashing when there is a birth after the toddler and I have to move the mother off to have her babies.  The poor dad cries like a baby every time.

I moved the whole lot within the n'hood, no joy.

I'll try moving the family in and out, but I particularly like the house as it has evolved for them.

Thanks for the advice everyone, I'll give it a go. First time this hitch has happened to me, haven't used testing cheats or changed any sims ages in simpe. I've turned 'aging off' on one lot, but played two lots since where ageing was working fine.

Ancient Sim, I relate about the spelling. In New Zealand, we follow the English way of spelling, but more and more in our schools, partly because of the strong influence of American culture, the introduction of txting and many more International students, we have a constant battle. Many places give up and accept either spelling as long as the student is consistent in their useage.

I did just run Pescado's UK hack, now my simcloack reads in military time.  ::) Don't see any changed spellings. (I have a userstartup.cheat that makes my cars run on the LHS of the road though).

Edit: I moved the sims to a new empty section, they're ageing properly now. Must be lot specific. Which means I can't use the lot that was coming along nicely. I have remembered though, it was one of the cheap Maxis houses I started with, then I was adding and modifying. Pure laziness really, I won't be using the pre-made ones again.

I used to have one Sim on a lot who wouldn't age. Well, he'd age during play, but as soon as I exited the lot and went back, he was reset to the beginning of the Adult stage. Very odd, considering that in all aspects, he was an Elder.

I finally got so tired of his being stuck in early Adulthood, yet slouching around and talking in that irritating voice, that I used Merola's painting to suck his life away. Death and the Hula Girls came, and left behind a gold-trimmed urn, despite the Sim being nowhere near the top of his career.

He was too corrupt. He needed killin'.

Where have I heard that before?  I know I've heard someone say that before..."He needed killin" when asked why he killed someone.
