only my adult sims are aging. elder, teen, and child sims are stuck. i am not getting any errors either. and everyday, every adult sim on the lot gets the birthday message regardless of how many days they have until the next transition. i am not using any aging hacks or cheats, i feel they defeat the purpose of the game.
Once I started playing the Veronaville hood, and one of the preset families had the same problem you described. To be honest, I believe I had installed Inge's age duration hack.
That was the first time I played that family's lot, and I think not even the adults could age, even though the birthday message popped up everyday as well.
Anyway, I ended up evicting that family, moved them to another lot, and that problem disappeared. So, it's probably caused by a fawlty lot, rather than an installed hack.

Do not delete the ones in your install folder. Only delete the ones in Documents.

Yes, but if I were you I'd do one at a time, and I shouldn't think you need to bother about CANHO Objects unless you download stuff that belongs in that category. I say one at a time as otherwise every time you go into Build/Buy etc., it takes so long to load stuff and generate the new thumbnails that you go frantic!
If you use SimWardrobe's Sims2Cat, this would be a good time to make all your downloads objects folders writeable so you can generate thumbnails to replace all those pink question marks.
If, like me, you get fed up when you use it of seeing all those diag. doors and windows with the question mark, you can generate thumbnails for them by using the edit button and, where the diag is shown with no Build Type or Sub Type, you need to check the correct boxes, and then save. After those thumbnails have generated and show up in Sims2Cat, you can then return the Build Type to nothing, save it, and then you will only get the one thumbnail showing in the game menu. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work for curtains. In order to generate the diagonal thumbnail in Sims2Cat, you do actually have to use the window or door on a diagonal, and that seems to do the trick!

nope, not a lot. it happened on 8 lots and just on the adults, which is why i thought i was weird. didn't have any errors and the hdcu didn't give me anything useful which is why i came here. i should have started going through my downloads folder though because it was inteen. dug through the rtfm for it, turns out it was junk townies.

Is there such a thing as an UN-faulty lot in Veronaville?
