Please use this thread going forward: [CoL] All animals aging up/dying (aging turned off) | EA Forums - 11853294
Since the September update last week - all of my animals are aging and dying with the aging box unchecked. Dogs, horses, chickens, etc. This has never happened to me before - outside of rabbits before the "fix" which appears to be not working anymore.
The Sims TeamHello @RavenQueen17, @HeartySimsX, @riley2278 ,
If any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods), would you be willing to share your save file(s)?
If so, please send me a private message with a link to the file.
Instructions here: http://x.ea.com/74420
Thanks!
@BostonBull1999 I just had that happen with a chicken. He was a young adult rooster, but when my sim took him to the Finchwick Fair to enter him in a contest, and then returned home, he was suddenly an elder. None of the other chickens on the lot aged up at all. I have all of the various aging options for all sims and animals disabled in my game settings. I don't even have the Horse Ranch pack yet. If something has changed in the game files recently, perhaps it was in a game patch rather than the Horse Ranch pack itself.
P.S. I am using mods, so unfortunately it won't do any good to attach my save file.
My animals are dying with box unchecked. It's still an issue 23rd October 2024
Same here. Just bought Cottage Living a couple days ago. Box is unchecked.
It's happening every time I load the game now. One or two animals, cows, chickens, rabbits die almost immediately. I'm looking for instructions to uninstall Cottage Living so I can play normally again. What a waste of time and money. I'm super bummed.
