Ah, that would be the problem then. Cheers! I'll see if I can figure out how to import them or download them separately from somewhere.

Thanks a lot for this! Made me go back to the game for the first time in months.

I installed Belladonna Cove as a Downtown. It worked out great, but the Maxis families don't show up. Are they supposed to be in the bin?

Sorry about the 40/0x0040 bit Dragon Slave, I’m pretty clueless about these things.
Thanks for the list!

They aren’t all elder, I deleted over 20 elders and maybe 3 or 4 adults which is even stranger. I’m hoping that installing AL will make the game recognise when there are enough of them. I will try banning them with the Business Controller first, haven’t thought of this.

I never had major problems with cc *knocks on wood*. I tried taking out all cc and later reinstalling once when I noticed that the coffee bar had disappeared, but then it turned out to be EA’s fault and fixed by downloading recolours.

Cereus maybe you have a different glitch with similar results. Mine don’t populate the lot, there’s only one at a time which never returns. Have you tried looking at what sort of NPCs or townies they are?

I’ve found another partial list. Apparently they are witches. Never had AL installed so it’s probably because of M&G. Or faulty CC, I haven't tried taking it out yet. I'll probably just install AL  

Edit: This list: http://simpeforum.ambertation.de/forum/viewpost/30856#30856

Are witches supposed to be elder? Cereus which EPs have you got?

This happens nearly every time I visit a community lot or open a home business; often after I closed the shop and everyone’s left. SimPe says they’re NPC Type 0040, is there a complete list somewhere? Last time I looked there were about 20 of them, now I re-installed the game after a long break and it’s still happening.
I have the EPs up to Pets, most of the stuff packs including M&G and all awesome noregen and antiredundancy type mods.

Help please?
