As requested:
This mod allows all sims to age that are on the lot you are playing except for NPC sims.

this was realy a intresting hack, but for some reason after a bit of testing they note that the townies didn't grow up..
the elder didn't die (the testing one have 71days  Cheesy ) and the teen have 0 days and never become an adult...
that's a shame that they didn't fix it 'cause i think that was realy intresting.. don't you think ?
anyway the tread was closed and Squinge giveup Sad

I think this is what I have in my game, but it's caused me a problem insofar as playable Sims also age when they're on a lot at 6pm and I wasn't always getting them all, subsequently a lot of mine have got all muddled-up in terms of how old they are.  I wanted it mainly so the townies would age and die like my Sims, but I suppose that could be done manually by taking temporary control of them. 

I do like the idea of townies ageing though, that way they would keep up with our Sims and also it would mean some new faces turning-up eventually.  Who cares if they all die without ever having a woo-hoo, or even a first kiss?!

I have decided to give up on this mod, I have tried getting it to work but visiting sims will not age they just remain stuck at 0 days, if you still have this mod I suggest you delete it from your game.

Looks like this mod blew up a few computers. I wish he could have found some way to fix it, because I like the idea that townies age along with you Playable characters. But, all those dead sim files would eventually build up, which will end up like a time bomb.

I got so fed up with it I moved my townies into lots either normally or with the tombstone of life and death.  I then moved them out onto their own lots.  I put the teens in foster homes en masse and had a lot of fun with them.  I put the kids into families and fixed some of the relationships in SimPE to make the adults related.  I had pretty well no townies left in my game thanks to notownieregen before I added OFB (I never got Uni or NL)  Now I need townies to sell overpriced junk to!

There is a way to turn sims into townies, so if you move them in and age them, you could make them townies again.

Sick of Bluewater?  Try Sedona or Meadow Lawns instead.  Meadow Lawns is a whole neighbourhood built to explore OFB.  Sedona is a sub'hood you can install as a permanent alternative to Bluewater - it's an "out of this world" experience!  www.moreawesomethanyou.com/cwykes

Well, the obvious reason why townies don't age is that if they did, they'd age about N times faster than anyone else, where N is the number of actively-played families in the game. They'd then quickly die, probably on your lot, and then your game would be full of dead character files. Not cool.

In any case, there's no rigidly defined global clock, and sims only age when you play their lots. You can't play a townie's lot, as they have none. So they never age.

I age mine up individually with the age sims cheat. I started aging children up so they'd become teen friends with my sims and then moved on to young adults and adults as mine grew up. Still don't do them all, but the ones I interact with much I do.
