A definitive CAS height slider, plus more!
.DEPRECATED. A new mod will be coming out soon to replace this. Okay, forget about earlier hope that we could have height sliders on child sims, it doesn't seem to work no matter how I do it, so unless someone discovers how to make sliders for children, it won't exist for quite a while. Are there any height mods that work with WW? WW animations expect a sim to be a certain height, so if the height difference between two sims is too great, the animations don't line up. If you just want a slider that doesn't conflict, there are a few.
I found it difficult to keep up with the many different (broken and non-broken) height sliders for Sims out there, so I decided to simplify it and make it available in CAS!
The height slider is based off of simmythsims’ original Tall/Short slider, with a few tweaks. Sims’ midriff, head, hands, and feet now scale proportionately to the size of the body. This slider can be used by dragging the neck up and down from the front of the Sim.
Four different height body presets, Short, Medium Short, Medium Tall, and Tall, are also available, in case you don’t want to manually adjust the height yourself. You can find this by going into the Body Presets section in CAS.
The slider and preset are Teen and older only, as kids and tots have awful distortion when trying to adjust height.
Disclaimers and Caveats:
The Sims 4: Height Slider and Shorter Teens Mod. Mod The Sims member simmythesim has just released the Height Slider & Shorter Teens Mod! This mod allows you to change the height of a Sim using an integrated slider, and even allows for shorter Teens! Alexis founded SimsVIP in 2011 right after Aliens abducted her from Bella Goth’s house.
Neck Tall/Short Slider
Adjusts the length of the neck, simple as that. This can be used with or without the height mod, but there will be clipping issues between Sims of different neck heights.
This can be found by dragging the neck in profile view up and down.
Teen and older.
Hip Shape Slider
Adjusts the shape of a Sims’ hips . Can be found by dragging the side of the hips up and down.

The Sims is the iconic and massively popular life-management sim that needs no introduction. It’s been incredibly popular since its first entry in 2000, and has only been getting more and more popular with each entry. The Sims 4 is no exception, and it’s been getting the same surge of post-release expansions and DLCs that the rest of the games get. Naturally, though, these expansions can’t cover everything, and there a lot of things fans want that hasn’t yet been covered by expansions and DLC.
The Sims 4 has gotten the mod treatment by its avid and dedicated community, though, so there is hope. The Sims 4 is a fun game anyway, but with the huge amount of mods available you can make it something amazing and endlessly replayable.
Check out these 15 mods that make The Sims 4 bigger, better, and more replayable. Also read – games like the sims 4.

A cool and charming little settlement inspired by old-fashioned French villages. It offers 10 places to live, including that sweet mansion for Sims who like grandiosity, and a pub and café. Naturally, there will be some style clashes once you start decorating, but it’s still just a nice place to live. Impressively enough, modder catdenny put together the whole thing using assets that were already in the game.

This mod, created by roBurky, aims to make your Sims’ happiness more “fleeting, meaningful, and personal”. By default, Sims’ native mood is happy, and let’s be honest, nobody is happy 100% of the time. It’s just no realistic. This mod changes the default mood to be “fine”, and makes it so that Sims only become “happy” when something good happens, like starting a relationship, eating a good meal, working out, etc. The default state won’t make your Sims unhappy, though, so don’t worry, it simply “fine” the default positive mood.

One thing long-time Sims fans know is sorely missing from The Sims 4 is the ability to take your Sim to college/university. The Sims 2 and 3 had University expansions, but 4 is yet to get the same treatment. Until that expansion is released, this is the best way to get your Sim a higher education.

Oddly enough, when creating your Sims, you can alter their width but not their height. This simple mod changes that. You can now change the height of your Sims, so that not everyone is the exact same size. Makes sense to me! Now not everybody will be the same height and won’t look so… samey.

Once your Sim has been an artist for longer than two days, you’ll start to see the same paintings again and again. The lack of variety can really get dull. This mod allows you to pull in a huge number of abstract and classical paintings in from the web and put them up in your home once your Sim has painted them. Awesome stuff!

This mod may not be what you think. Gender preferences refer to the gender that your Sim is attracted to.

There’s a lot you could do with this simple mod, and it’ll spice up your Sims romantic life.
