Unageing people and maid species?

<< < (3/6) > >>

OK, having never had this particular aging problem, I can only suggest what I would do if I did have this aging problem.

Is it consistent throughout the hood, or just on the one lot?  If you have only one lot, why not try creating another sim or two, plant them in a house, and see if they age, can hire a maid, etc.  If they can, it is likely that the problem is restricted to the one lot.

At that point, you can try moving house - move out the family and bulldoze the lot (if you constructed the house yourself, hopefully you packaged it or backed it up somewhere).  Move them in somewhere else and hopefully all will work as per spec.

Anybody else with better ideas? (Rhetorical question really)

OK, still no fix. On either of the issues. I'll be installing all the DCes right away, I'm so tired of this!

One thing about the no ageing thing, every day at 18:00 they don't age but it seems that one of those boxes comes up telling me to throw them a birthday party, even though they're still at the begging of that age group. The next day they still won't age, so it's not that the age bar is buggy and won't show their age.

Also, just so I know the DCs should only have .PACKAGE files in them right? Nothing else?

I'm seeing similarities with the mess you can make with the tombstone of Life and Death.
1. check aging didn't get turned off
2. try using set to birthday and then feeding them elixir of live or sliding the age back with boolprop.

Moving visiting sims in using the first, easy option on tombstone of L&D results in the moved in sim not aging.  You have to use move in neighbour and hunt through all the sims in the hood instead.  The sims then age normally.   I ran into this a long time ago and I know better than to trust any of the spawned objects now.

Yeah I never ever use the tombstone of L and D to move somebody in, I did it accidently once. Would this stop all sims ageing or just the one I moved in?

I'll try the set to birthday thing,  hope it works!

On any cheated move-in that I've done, it only affected aging on the one sim.  Adjusting days until birthday using Insim jump started it again and all was fine.

Give it a try anyway - it may kick start aging.  Anyway, you won't lose anything by trying (presumeably) at this point.
