@cornflake89 Yes I understand that. It's the wrong length but you said in your initial post that they always start at the beginning of their age every time you load the game. Is that also happening on the new game ?

@cornflake89 Your issue might be related to this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Aging-Settings-Broken/td-p/11668082/jump-to/first-unread-messa... ? I don't know if there's more than one bug or if it's all connected but yours def sounds different from the long lifespan issue posted here.

I'm pretty tired so I need to call it a night. I'll check some more in the morning.

Good Luck

@Squallri88 

 

Could you please edit your post and add the following info to your post.

 

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:
Which language are you playing the game in? 
How often does the bug occur? 
What is your current game version number? 
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? 
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 
What happens when the bug occurs? 
What do you expect to see? 
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods?
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? 

 

The bug template is currently working on/off but it helps if you are not prompted for the template while editing, please answer the questions anyways.

 

 

@cornflake89 I moved your posts over here. It sounds more closely to what you are seeing then the other thread.

Good Luck

@crinrict The aging changed to fit the new pack. It’s not a bug. HS is 3 weeks long.

@crinrict I had to do the workaround so I can’t confirm it right now but I will start a new save to see if the adults are effected as well.

@cornflake89 So over a 3 day period sims aged 3 days except Mortimer who only aged 2 days but he became a proper celebrity as did Cassandra, despite fame being turned off. At this point I'm done with the game until we get a fix. Thanks for all the advice and for helping.

@crinrict I just checked and it changed as well. I think it has to do with the new pack gameplay. I aged up the test sim I used with a cake and checked the lifespan — 33 days until Elder.

@cornflake89 The fame issue should only be a display issue. They aren't really famous, just showing as such.

So no more resetting then. That's good. As mention, the change in age span seems an intended one (and is probably the cause for all the aging havoc)

Good Luck
