[ARCHIVED] [HR] [CD] [CoL] All animals aging up/dying (aging turned off)

After the last two updates (Love Struck, now Life and Death), my sims are aging even though I have aging, neighborhood stories, and autonomy turned off in the game settings. This bothers me a lot because I post stories and I need my sims to be young adults all the time, otherwise it will mess up my plans. Also, I love them, I don't want them to age and die!

I also have animal dying turned off, yet right now the Grim Reaper is coming to my farms to mass kill my animals (chickens), even the young ones. He is taking my little chick and saying "it's time for a young rooster". It's nonsense. I think it must be some sort of bug related to the new update, which after all was mainly focused on death and the Grim Reaper.
