NOTE: I have removed the mod that I had here for download for two reasons: 1) it did not include toddlers and 2) it conflicted with MC Command Center. However, you no longer my mod because MC Command Center makes this customization of the Sim’s lifespan much easier. For a discussion of why I prefer a 300+ sim day lifespan based on the length of Sim’s pregnancy duration, see this page.Īfter some research, I discovered that I could easily create a TS4 mod that allowed me to play with the lifespan settings that I was accustomed to. In both cases, the lifespans represent 75+ real-time years.
The plus sign (+) represents the fact that Sim elders do not die immediately on the last day of the lifespan. Sometimes I play a shorter version of this in which 2 sim days = 1 year and the lifespan is 150+ sim days. When playing TS3, I prefer a 300+ sim day lifespan in which 4 sim days = 1 year. To me these numbers do not make any sense. As I have read on a number of forums, many players do not like these lifespan settings and because of that will either play with aging off or they will manually age-up all the Sims.
