I seem to have a bug that is preventing my Sims from aging. It happened after my Sim had a baby. The "x days left until aging" bar never increases. Aging IS active in my game options.

I found this thread on The Sims 3 that discusses the bug but no one mentioned any solutions. Is there any way to get around this? I have every EP except Seasons and none of the Stuff Packs.

  • Did you double-check that aging is still on? I've seen reports of people having turned it on, then months later it turns off for some reason (possibly a patch glitch). They're sure it's on so they don't check again. – Yamikuronue Jan 16 '13 at 20:52
  • Yes I checked. Read the thread I linked, it's affected a lot of people. – victoriah Jan 16 '13 at 21:26

I think you have to throw a birthday party if I remember correctly.

Even in the post you quote it mentions 

" I age them up with the TCE cheat. "

See more of the cheat from here (changed link to a better one, you would want the ageuptonpc cheat.)

    Can I throw a birthday party if my Sim is not close to aging? – victoriah Jan 16 '13 at 19:53
  • It's been a while, but I think once you get the x days left, then you can throw a party anytime in that timeframe – Mike Jan 16 '13 at 19:54
  • Yes, but my Sims aren't aging at all. As in, the day counter isn't moving. – victoriah Jan 16 '13 at 20:07
  • Ah misunderstanding on my part, still using the TCE should still allow you to change this, if you are on PC – Mike Jan 16 '13 at 20:25

    You CAN make any sim age by having them blow out the candles on a birthday cake. This can be used on the Xbox and PS3 as well unlike the TCE cheat since cheats aren't use-able on consoles. – VanBuzzKill Jan 16 '13 at 20:35
