Could that be causing a problem?


Do you have "testing cheats on" applied? I might be wrong, but I'm sure I had to do that to get it to work.

Yes, I know they were on because I have my setting in MC Command Center so that testingcheats is always on.

Just making a post to avoid misleading ppl. As of today, with a fully patched game, this mod still works, you can set the hands, bulge, neck and height. I can't say it works as Morphar as pointed out, on genetics, toddlers or aging, but thats irrelevant to me, it works fine for my purposes. Only one that is "flawed" is the bulge one, which looks bad and renders it unusable IMO (I suspect the mod author has created that slider in an "unused" bone, and the meshes are not really rigged for that purpose, and most likely has a very low density in that zone).

With that said, for those who are having trouble in making the changes, here are some example commands:

Start by opening the console command-line with CTRL+SHIFT+C, in live mode, and then type (these will work for the selected Sim only, in LIVE MODE, and ITS CASE-SENSITIVE!):
add_slider hand 100
add_slider height 50
add_slider bulge 25
add_slider neck -50


If you want to change any other Sim, you need to get his ID by using first:

sims.get_sim_id_by_name (first name) (last name)

For example:

sims.get_sim_id_by_name Travis Scott
Which will return a number:
882147943886073367

Then if you want to change Travis Scott height, all you need to do is:
add_slider height 50 882147943886073367

Is it possible for you to create a tutorial on how to create custom sliders, please?

I love this mod a lot. But is it possible to remove the automatic increase of height? I only want to decide the height of certain Sim and keep it that way, not to have a gradual increase for every Sim or to have the NPCs with different heights.

Also I think the bulge slider is kinda unnecessary, mainly because the resulting bulge looks kinda triangular (unrealistic)

The downloads on the first page has a static height slider, it doesnt change, I personally don't use any height slider because:
1. If two sims of different height do some interactive animation (like kissing) you will probably have one of them kissing the other's nose, which is kinda silly. You may offset this problem, if you play around with both height and neck sliders to minimize the issue, but ultimately they will be around the same height. The only difference is that one will be overall a bit bigger (I believe that the height slider is scaling the "root" bone in all 3 axis, X,Y,Z)
2. Sims that have had their Height changed, will have animation problems with toddlers, having their arms all screwed up, and the toddler floating several meters away from where they should be.

Yeah the bulge slider is kinda meh, but thats limited to the mesh density in that area, it's not really the slider problem.

Hi i am sure some one probably already covered this..but can this slider be used with the old slider that allowed us to customize the height in CAS? This current version does not allow us to that..I do not really understand how to use it..I will try to reread it over and over again i guess until i get it..lol..i have been off of the game for awhile and i am not as savvy as some of you. I need mc command correct..? or just the regular cheat? Lastly This last post I am reading..in your game have you fixed the problem with kissing by playing around with your height and neck slider? If so what setting are you using? Please bear with me..especially if these questions have been answered.. I appreciate your time..

You do not need MC command for these sliders to work.
The ones that function outside of CAS are applied to Sims by using the cheat console.
You open the cheat box with CTRL SHIFT C and then type in the commands that are given in the first post.
"Enter 'add_slider <command> <number>', with <command> being the command listed for the slider, and <number> a number between the min and the max values of the slider. Min and Max are usually -100 (smallest) and 100 (largest), unless it is specifically stated otherwise."
So if I want to make my Sim taller I would have them selected, open the cheat box and then type "add_slider Height 50" without quotes.
If it works you should see the change immediately.

This mod does not work with toddlers. It's OK for everything else. It needs to be updated to work with toddlers.

Default Toddlers Fix
I usually don't meddle on other ppls mods, but this was a fairly simple task. All credits go to SimmyTheSim ofc, this is a semi-fix for toddlers

I did not do any extensive testing, I basically picked a toddler and it was ok =P

EDIT: Didn't tested the Dynamic,but I did the same edits, so it should work. One thing though, the dynamic version has one of the sliders with twice the value (I assume is doing so in Teens and Children to have their height set to the lowest. Because of this, their legs might look longer than the normal slider

The height value 0 to 100 is the same height.

Yes and no... Like I said this was a semi-fix... let me clarify...

WHat is causing the "bug" is that usually if you would want to increase the height of an entire character (no matter the game) you would apply it to the root bone. This is what is causing the bug. What I did was scale it up on the Spine0 bone, so it doesnt get as higher, but it gets... I can maybe increase the slider range, but the more I do that, the more unproportionated the torso and legs ratio will be.

I tried several other things to try to scale legs, but the feet always "snap" to the Root Bone origin

However, I can assure you that it does increase the overall height.

I just had to drop by and just say THANK YOU! SO MUCH! I check back on this thread often hoping to see it updated and am just delighted. It's working great in my game so far and I'm very happy. Have the toddler fling arms was really immersion breaking. Thank you again!

I totally missed this post so I'll try to clarify. The CAS Slider thing was done by sacrificing one of the slider slots (FEET). Because I do like to have the ability to have bigger or smaller feet, I did not checked or used that version. While its possible to add additional sliders, it would require for us to "reset" all the existing ones, to give room for more, which is a task that can be complicated and is more bound to break with any patch/update. I rather have a command that I can use whenever in live mode, its not that hard =)

You should check the first post on this thread, but in essence, the dynamic slider will cause your children and teens to grow as they age, I guess it's a "passive slider"
