TS4 New tutorial: Create a new lifespan for Sims 4

I don't support the lifespanmods for TS4 anymore.
But with this tutorial you can update it yourself:
Just be sure you use an update lifespan mod as a base:

or
http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=590549

The reason why I don't support them anymore, is because nearly every time there's a new patch, update, game pack or EP there's a huge chance this needs to be updated (so have fun with that).

I hardly play the game myself anymore and if I play it's totally without CC 'cause nearly every time there's a new patch, update, game pack or EP there's a huge chance +50% of my CC needs to be updated.

The principle of this tutorial still is the same after the toddler patch and after the Cats & Dogs EP. You just need to change the age for toddlers and pets as well.

Things needed before you start:

• S4PE: download here: http://bit.ly/downloads4pe
• IMPORTANT: unzip with 7zip not Winrar
• An already working custom lifespan package.
• Download here if your game has a lower version than 1.5.139.1020: http://bit.ly/AgeTutorial
• Download here if your game has version 1.5.139.1020 or higher: http://bit.ly/AgeTutorialUpdate
• Download here if your game is updated to the Toddler patch or higher: http://bit.ly/AgeTutorialUpdateToddlers

Make sure you use an updated custom lifespan package as base.

Creating the lifespan

• Open S4PE.
• Open the lifespan package.
• The screen is divided into two windows.
• In the left window you will see one line.
• Select that line and you will see text in the right window
• Then go to Settings and then External programs

• Be sure none of the squares are selected.
• Press "ok"
• Press with the right-mouse button on the line in the left window.
• Select Notepad at the buttom of the menu
• The notepadfile will open.
• Press ctrl + F and type "threshold"
• The notepad will search for all the lines with that word.
• On the right of that word you see a number.
• That's the span of the age you see a few lines higher
• The value is always the "Normal" length

• Change the values in the ones you want for the Normal length for all the ages.
• At the top of the notepadfile you will see the multipliers for the other lengths.
• In this example the span of the adult age for the length "Fast" will be 408*2=816
• The span of the adult age for the length "Slow" will be 408*0.5=204

• Save the notepadfile and close it.
• Say Yes when S4PE askes Commit changes?
• Now go to File and press Save as
• Give the package a unique name and save it in the mods folder of your game
• Be sure you only have one lifespan mod in that folder at the time.
