I was just playing casually and then I needed to reset one sim, but instead f reseting her I accidentally deleted her. I left the house and went back in so she would show up. She was a toddler but when I showed she was laying on the floor like a baby and I only got baby interections with her but I can't even touch her with any of my sims cuz it gives them an error. I would really like to save her, since my whole neighborhood has a storyline and I created and played through every 1st gen in my neighborhood and the rest are just the offsprings.But if I can't save her, how do I get rid of her. I saw in a thread that if I delete her I will corrupt my neighborhood which knowing how long I spent developing every family there, sounds horrible. I also saw that I could edit her life stage with sim pe, and make her act her age, but I have no idea at all how to work with sim pe since I've never even touched that, so if anyone could guide me through that, I'd appreciate it.

I was able to reproduce the uninteractable toddler-baby by messing around in SimPE in a neighborhood designed for messing around in.
Download SimPE from here: https://sims.ambertation.de/en/
To install it, create a folder someone and unzip the contents into that folder.
Keep in mind that you do have to be on Windows and not Mac for SimPE to work as it requires a file that Mac's do not have.
Then launch SimPE (run the .exe in the folder you put the zipped contents into from before). You probably already know this, but I'm going to say it anyway, the game should not be running if you're doing anything in SimPE.
It may take some time to load and may appear like it has frozen. Just be patient. Once it pops up with 3 panels it's up and ready for the next step.
Go to Tools --> Neighborhood --> Neighborhood Browser --> Select your neighborhood and hit Open
Then Go to Tools --> Neighborhood --> Sim Browser... -- > Select your Sim and hit open - the list defaults by order created, you can hit Name and sort it by Name
At some point either when you open the neighborhood or go for Sim Browser it will load the neighborhood data. This could take some time and Windows may think the program has gone non-responsive. It hasn't.
You will pop into the Overview section in the bottom panel. It will give a picture icon (or a picture of Mr. Potato Head, which is fine).
Before we actually change anything what does the Life Section say her age state is? If it says Infant, then we'll proceed.
Hit the drop down menu and select Toddler.
Then in the top right part of the bottom panel (probably about halfway down the entire window) is the Commit button. Hit Commit.
Then do File --> Exit. It will ask if you want to save. Hit Yes.
Then load up your game and see if it looks right.
If it doesn't say Infant, then set to Infant. Commit. Then set to Toddler. Commit. File --> Exit --> Yes to save. Load the game and see what happens.
Let me know if you aren't following something or how it works or doesn't.
Does the crash happen with no NPC's being aged up?
Did you try to age up different NPC's for the two Sims?
I think I'm just gonna start a thread. It happened in other sims. i surpassed the crash in that family. Now gotta do it in this one. And ye I did.
