The sims 3 aging bar
My sims 3 aging bar is not working, for example my sims would be 11 days from aging up and be stuck being 11 days from aging up for one sim week. It takes the fun out the game, someone please help!
@brilala06 Please start by deleting the five cache files in your Sims 3 user data folder in Documents\Electronic Arts. These files should be deleted regularly anyway; whenever you're troubleshooting, delete them every time you quit. For reference, they are:
That alone may not help though. The next step would be to go to Edit Town, evict your sims, and place them back into their house. Sims evicted in this way will keep their jobs and relationships but lose their promised wishes and opportunities. When you're back in live mode, use "save as" to rename the save, then quit (without saving, as a separate step), delete the cache files, reload, and see whether the sims age. You can fast-forward to check, and you can quit without saving if it works.
If that doesn't work either, let me know whether you use mods or would be willing to add some.
