Have you got the cheat 'aging on/off' activated or have you used it?

oOo_AnGeL_oOo · 13-12-2008, 09:28 PM

It is off and has been since the baby was born :-S i dunno whats going on!!

B53n3 · 13-12-2008, 09:59 PM

it could be a glitch, move the family out and then move them back in, it should fix it. try moving just one of the adults and the baby out to keep the stuff in the house.

Have you tried using the birthday cake?

If you have aging off, like you said, it should be aging on for them to grow up. Maybe I am wrong as I am only a novice.

oOo_AnGeL_oOo · 14-12-2008, 09:45 AM

Aging is on i will try all above if that dont work i'm affraid i will have to lock it up n have social services get it :-(( thanks for advice ill let you know how i get on

If the baby is actually ready to grow up, then I'm afraid you will just have to wait. Sometimes it does take an extra day or two for it to grow up than normal. This is basically because you can't actually control your sims to help it grow up, it's an autonomous action. Maybe try waiting a day or two for the baby to grow up and if it doesn't then, well I'm not sure..

Try boolprop testingcheatsenabled true shift and click the baby and click set to birthday that might work

Try boolprop testingcheatsenabled true Shift click the baby and click set to birthday, that might do it.

update: well i have again left it a week and tried the cheat numerous times but even that isn't working ARGH what next i really don't want to lose the kid it aint a good start to a massive family!!

oOo_AnGeL_oOo · 14-12-2008, 01:24 PM

Yippeeeeeeeeeee,

After much messing about and many cheats the damn kid as grown lol if you have same prob you need to follow below:

exit and reload game then enter house
ctrl+shift+c > boolprop testingcheatsenabled true
shift+click baby > make selectable (babies icon will go)
shift+click baby > make selectable (babies icon will return)
Get mum/dad to "let child out"
Make mum/dad busy elsewhere (bath ect) so as to not interupt the next step (because they keep trying to "hold child")
select babies icon > click on baby > grow up

I had to do this numerous times it was my last attempt before killing the god damn kid!!!

Thanks to all who tried to help out very grateful for the imput and hope this helps any future simmers probs :-D
