Hi,

so I noticed this with my last two old Sims. They don't die anymore while the game is in progress and I get the same message that their life is coming to an end evers two to three days. But they only die on restart.

@A937113 Let me know what result you get without mods. It's always best to test without them before making a report.

Make sure to also delete your localthumbcache file.

Allright, didn't know about the thumbnail. I did it and will report if it happens with the next Sim. Thanks

Similar but not quite same issue. Teenage Sim died on opening game earlier this week. Didn't seem to be an obvious reason for death, but was angry from mood swing. On closing game previously I had moved 1 young adult out of the family. I quit without saving and on relaunch had no issues. The day after I got the 134 error, which may be connected, and has prevented me from knowing if it could be an ongoing issue.

I'm playing on a macbook pro, have only family and city living expansions and no mods.

@A937113 Are you still having this issue without mods ?

[A937113]

I have Error 134, so no idea. But will update when everything works again.

@A937113 OK. Thanks for letting me know.

Hopefully soon.

Hey, actually took a while to check out. But with the last elder who died of old age it was fine.
