Hi, I’m not sure if it’s similar to the original poster as they mentioned having Businesses and Hobbies. I don’t have that pack and so far none of my sims have died. I do use MCCC but I didn’t get any notifications about other sims dying or aging up from that mod and neighborhood stories is off. However, I did leave the save pretty quickly and didn’t wait to the next day to see if any npc’s were aged. I’ve been playing 3 other households in rotation and didn't get age up notifications for them… Well, actually one of the played households did age up. Only the kids. This was before I updated though but they were a sims family I downloaded off the gallery and their ages were already further along. I had aged the kids back down a few weeks back. I can check their previous ages from before I updated, if you’d like but it’d have to be later when I get off work. I do have previous saves of this save file. I’ve been playing my particular save for a few months and never had an issue with sims aging at random. Is there a work around for this or am I forced to turn aging off? That would be unfortunate because I’m playing Scenario sims so they need to age up to complete the story but I rather do it at the actual pace and not have it get catapulted so soon. If I have to turn aging off, so be it but for how long? I need to know for sure that the Sims Team is actively working on this, among the many other issues, as a next update type of progress because this is a bit immersion breaking and it would make any save unplayable.
