Birth Dates on Calendar
First off, I just got Season and have only played for a total of five, almost six Sims days. I had to ask about how to get to the calendar, and then remembered the lessons section inside the game. D'o...

The only thing I can think of is to manually age up the “oldest” one 4 days before the marked birthday, and the “middle” one 2 days before, then leave the “youngest” one alone (assuming you have that many days before the birthday). I think it will then space their birthdays on the calendar, but I’m not 100% on that.
Edit: maybe save right before you try so you can exit without losing anything if it doesn’t work well, or test it with a new save first.
Thank you! I shall have to give that a try. I'm used to playing on Long and aging them all up when I was 'ready'. This feels a tad constraining to me, but as long as I can age him up manually, then it'll be worth it. I'll just have to make sure he earns as many of his Values as possible while a child.
I wish you luck! I’m torn on how I feel about it as well, I like that birthdays show up but wish we had more control. I’m fine with using MCC to set the days before aging on my Sims, but I know many Simmers don’t like mods and I completely understand that too.
I use MCCC, too. Twice I set it for X numbers of days per age level, following the instructions to exit the game and restart. Twice, it has failed. I've got the latest version 4.4.4 and confess, I haven't tried again. Like I said, I tend to age up my Sims when I'm ready. ;) I do love the fact that their birthdays show up on said calendar. Having not made it to the first one posted, yet, I can't wait to see what happens. Do we just get a 'reminder' as before, only using a different method. Or, what? I'll find out with the first girl. I'm happy to say, they have the first daughter (by order of how they were created) up for a birthday before her younger sister. :)
I’m guessing it could be due to MCCC just being a hot fix right now, hopefully it works once fully updated. I did get a birthday reminder the day before (same as it’s always been) for my toddler and he aged up a bit early with the cake just fine.
I'm afraid I wasn't very clear. In the past, I've tried to set the age levels to last X amount of days. Both times, it failed. And while I had the latest version of MCCC when I wrote that post, I just haven't tried to set the lengths again. Hot fixes are basically, from what I have experienced, the same as the released mod, with the 'fixes' built in.
