Auriël's Custom Lifespan
- By
Introduces longer, custom lifespans for Sims, cats, dogs, and horses, allowing you to enjoy each life stage for much longer.
Auriël's Custom Lifespan
I created these custom lifespan settings because I prefer a much slower aging system, giving my Sims and pets more time to experience every stage of their lives.
This mod replaces the default Normal lifespan durations with my preferred values, allowing you to enjoy family life, relationships, careers, and everyday activities without constantly worrying about aging.
Features
Extended Lifespans: Significantly increases the duration of all human life stages.
Custom Pet Aging: Includes separate lifespan settings for cats, dogs, and horses.
Consistent Aging: Each life stage has its own predefined duration.
Easy Configuration: Simply select the Normal lifespan setting in-game.
No Additional Dependencies: Works as a standalone package without additional scripts.
