Re: Sims Age Bar Does not Move

@Kika779  Please go into Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 and delete the five cache files:

  • CASPartCache.package
  • compositorCache.package
  • scriptCache.package
  • simCompositorCache.package
  • socialCache.package

If that doesn't help, open the same folder and move options.ini to your desktop.  The game will create a new one the next time it loads with all default options.  If this helps, you'll need to redo all your in-game options, but the aging should work now.

If that doesn't help either, please test in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 3 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you open the launcher, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  Don't add anything to it yet; just start a new save and run it long enough to see whether the sims age.

    Deleting options.ini worked.

    Thank you so much!
