Elder 25 - diypepper4 years agoSeasoned AdventurerI like having long age spans. When I start a new game, it gives me time to befriend the entire town and eventually have a beautiful and busy graveyard :)
https://i.imgur.com/wM7DZka.png - lowpolygal4 years agoSeasoned AceI play both normal and normal edited, but mostly normal :*
My edited version adds days to all life stages because I don't like favoring the life stage that is more interesting or has more gameplay value, so if I want more YA days, well I gotta suck it and have more newborns days as well lol
I have three different settings, but I guess my favorite is this one:
Babies — 4 days
Toddlers — 8 days
Children — 8 days
Teenagers — 16 days
Young Adults — 25 days
Adults — 25 days
Elders — 20 days - NikkeiSimmer4 years agoLegendCan't be bothered to edit right now. Too busy writing the narrative that goes along with the game. But I play long and would probably play longer lives if I could be bothered to edit the Options.ini. Oh well... :mrgreen:

@Nikkei_Simmer OMG! I would get bored with my sims if I've had them for that long, more power to you lol :smiley: - Cororon4 years agoRising TravelerEpic, but longer than that for most sims in my family. They have been in the same life stage for years. I use NRaas MasterController to set the age back to the first day of the life stage after a while to basically stop them from aging. I age them up when I feel like its time. I let other sims age normally. :)
- cb2342z4 years agoSeasoned AceLong; as I am getting back into trying to play both TS3 and TS4 the way they were intended--with aging on.
- UlanDhor4 years agoSeasoned AceIt's more a modified long than simply an extended long, although the latter is technically true.
https://i.imgur.com/oGCMIRe.jpg - JesLet404 years agoSeasoned AceI play with seasons, with LMS's 21 day/season mod giving me 12 weeks as a year, I have then altered ages to fit the idea that 1 sim year roughly equals 5 "real" years. What I get is this:
Baby 17 days (1/5 of a year)
Toddler 67 days (1 year combined with baby)
Child 168 days (2 "years" - a bit longer than it should be but I want the birthday to fall on the same day of year every time)
Teen 84 days (1 "year")
YA 168 days
Adult 588 days (yes it's log but it spans the ages 30-65)
Elder 252 days (3 "years")
As my lifespans are very long I play different families and keep to one family for quite some time then change. Sometimes I make my old families NPCs for a time and then return to them. I have also slowed down skill building because otherwise they get masters at everything and that's just boring.
I play with Epic and since I put seasons back in my puter the age span is based on an in game year with seasons. I write stories so I will place a season on hold if needed for the story. I will hold off aging sims as well. I have no rules in my games or stories except to have fun. Happy simming!
