- Sims will no longer incorrectly age up when adjusting game age options
Fixed in Patch 1.110.265/2.01
Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issues without any mods/cc installed.
Did you revert to a backup from before Tuesday's patch and it still happened ? so how do you do that? and i imagine that if I do then that it erases all progress made since the initial buggy update in July, because I did play my game but I had to turn off aging to prevent sudden instant aging and death. Also, wouldn't I need to go back to something prior to the July update that broke aging to begin with?
Do you still have random days added when taking them to CAS ? There have been some changes with the age groups so it's possible that there's an initial hit but if they were nowhere near aging up and it's all, it's sounds like a problem. I'm not sure what you're referring to here with CAS. I haven't noticed sim days because there were so many other bugs happening at the same time. days added to their lifespan, yes...my sims lifespan bars are all maxed out..I have over 60 sims and it's the same for all the ones I checked on...there is no way that is normal as I didn't create all these sims at the same time so that as soon as I enter live mode they all instantly age up at the the same time. The August 2nd patch did not fix that. If I turn my aging back on and enter a sim household they all instantly age up because all their bars are full which happened after the July update. Therefore I continue to leave aging turned off.
Are you playing mod-free ? I don't use game mods to change how the game is played or anything...i use CC for clothing, hair, etc.
@hobbyholly76 If you didn't load a backup after the bug happened, they will still age up since they are all ready to age up. Yes, you will loose all progress you made since playing but it was always said that you need to revert to a backup if your Sim is already affected by the bug.
To me it sounds you were affected and turned off aging on the affected save, is that correct ?
The issue was as follows: Every Sim got added a random amount of days to their age span if you played on long/reduced if you were playing on short). This happened each time you loaded into Live mode. Meaning, when loading the game, going to CAS and back into the game, going to the map and back into the game or travelling to another lot. The only time it didn't happen was switching between build/live mode
There currently still have been issues report when playing on short that Sims are aging up because the length of the age spans were changed. Some also report their Sims are set back to beginning of the age span.
I really don't have any good suggestion for you if you don't want to loose that progress. There are mods that can help you set the age back to what it was but I assume you would not want to do that for all Sims that have aged up.
I'm going to move your posts over to the post-patch fallout thread. Maybe someone else has a good suggestion how to proceed
@49066r3abmad I moved your post in the current age bug 'fallout' thread. Could you please read the info I've written up so far and let me know if your issue is different (aka it happens still each time you go to CAS) or if you have any questions.
No I didn't load a backup. I've been playing sims for MANY years but I have no idea how to even do that, I never have had to. I have 2 save games...I never even entered the 2nd one after having all these issues with the first one...so I am going to assume that one also is going to be affected, seems like forever at this point. Last night I used a family to test, turned on aging, went to live mode, they all aged up instantly (this was after the patch), so I went to CAS and reverted their ages back. Their lifespan bars started over, but that did not resolve the problem. When restarting the game their lifespan bars are again filled to the max ready to age up as soon as I entered live mode, but I have aging off, if I turn it on they will just age up all over again. What I'm hearing here is that I will never be able to have aging turned on if I want to continue to play in the saves I've had for years. or that I have to use a backup, however that is done, and lose everything I've done in the game since the bug occurred.
