Has anybody had a sim with the "long lived" achievement die of old age?

Yes, one of mine did at 148 days as an elder. They do live a long time but, they do eventually die.

Don Lathario...my sim would marry for simoleons then kill them off. Don lived in her basement without exercise equiptment, food, bed, shower or toilet. Sim weeks later he was still alive. I gave up and let him out. Funny thing, he died two days latter at age 208 elder days.

Yes, one of my heirs in my first legacy. About 157 days old and even then I pleaded with grimmy three times as I just didn't want him to die.

Yeah I've had elders with that trait die, it just takes a looooong time.

I have not yet had a Sim die with that Trait. But, I play with Aging off in over half of my Saves, aging up manually, and having them Woohoo a fair amount when they get great grandchildren pressing adulthood. The other half I play on Long Life Span.

To the folks who have stated the exact days the Sim lived, where do you see the amount of days displayed in the game? Lessee, @DarkAmaranth1966, @StilleWater, @NZsimm3r? Once they get the sparkly bar, it stops saying how many days they've lived when you hover on it. Have you just kept track by counting the days yourself? Or is there another place that tells how many days?

I was wondering this myself. I've missed how it would say how old a sim was.

@"Livin in Sim" I don't think there is a way to see that without mods, but the MC Command center shows you the days they've lived for every sim you open the menu with (and it does lots of other cool things ;) )There is another mod, the show sim info mod, which probably shows that information, but I don't use it so I don't know for sure.

Ah, thanks for the reply. :) Yes, I do have MCCC, and I've seen that it does show how many days they have left to live, when you click on the Sim and choose MCCC in the menu. But I didn't know if that number was just using the default Age Spans, or if it changed from Sim to Sim if they had certain traits. I can test this out, tho, by making an elderly Sim with the Long Lived Trait and comparing them to a Sim without. I'll try to remember to share what I find out, when I get around to doing this, lol. The other thing is, with Sims I'm pretty invested in, I do hate to peek at this, because I don't really want to know the exact day they're going to die. :blush: I'd rather just have the days count up. I guess it's because it would be so freaky IRL to know that, can you imagine? :p

I also have often thought that the Show Sim Info Mod would probably have this. It is super detailed. I don't have it installed.

I just had an Elder Sim die of old age immediately after completing the Bodybuilder aspiration. I had just paused it to select rewards and a new aspiration, ironically I had enough for a potion of youth be chose not to use it. So yes his life was extended a good 3 minutes. I suspect he was probably already scripted to Die before the reward could take effect.

I took my sims dad on holiday to granite springs with her and her hubby because he was the ever living and his bar was sparkly and I didn't want to miss the urn, he keeled over after a few days. The sim also had long lived and also died on a forced excursion to granite springs, I'm beginning to think it's cursed!
