I am currently experiencing a completely non-working mod. It has worked for me in the past, but recently it has stopped. I downloaded the stable version, along with the toddler patch, yet I am unable to change the heights of my sims. I enter the proper commands, but nothing seems to change.
Am I perhaps missing an important step?

And have you also got the updated slider script fix file from Ash77 in post #392 (page 16 i think). My apologies if you have. I only use the short and tall toddler fix sliders and the slider script fix and its working fine for me.

Hi! Everything seems to be working, but just curious if theres a way to fix the clipped heads of shorter and taller sims in their little headshot icons in the bottom left corner? This is just an aesthetic complain haha so if theres nothing to do theres no biggie.

Nobody knows how to change the portrait pictures yet. Or even if it's possible. The cameras are set at a fixed height for them.

Hello, guys.
I found, that this mod was stopped working.
Who wants it reworked?
I can rework it, if you want.

Is there a height mod for teens - elders that works without the kiss/hug, carring toddlers and so on bugs?
If there is please link to what I need 😬

I use the combination given in post 490. It works perfectly and you can adjust by pulling their feet and in CAS. You need to follow the instructions in post 317 carefully.

This mod was just working a week ago and now its gone again Why does this keep happening. Someone please fix this.

Yes please :lovestruc

It's still working in my game. I know because I was only using it yesterday.
The files in the first post haven't worked for a long time but there have been several updates by other members throughout the replies.

Can I ask you to repost them?

Post #317 is the key. Start there.

Remember that this is the original mod:
http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=559329
It is the only fully working mod. The animation could probably be a little smother but can, if changed, result in strange toddler handling. Short sims get stiff legs.
Some people don't like to use the foot slider as a height slider in CAS. Others don't like to set the height in the cheat console.

Original source code:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!Am8KXkA0MW12hjkJiY_T6hHUV3KS

Here is an attempt to just improve animation but resulted later in toddler handling issue.
http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=588159

Post #490 have a summary of one alternative setup.

My personal priority is:
Shorter teens than adults.
Nicer animations of short sims.
Set heights survive aging.
Realistic genetics.
Height setting in CAS
Height setting in cheat console.

This is what is happening since the latest update. I did not get a pic of the children, they were all walking with bent knees. I just removed the sliders for now. I do have the updated script and verto's updates for the slider. I really like the sliders and they were working just fine until the update.

And, I see changes in Python code of the game API.
Console version is not working for all, right? I am saying about file A lot of sliders for The Sims 4 v0.06.1.zip.

I forget which version of everything I am using now but I am using the CAS feet slider version made by CmarNYC to actually alter heights.

I've made fixed version of the mod, so you can enjoy it with console commands - http://arturlwww.tumblr.com/post/16...-gradual-height

The Updated Height from vectorplexus and the Updated Script File from Ash77 along with CmarNYC's Height Slider are working for me still.

Is it working without the bugs?

But what did you fix? To my knowledge there are no problems with the console commands. Did you fix the same problems as Ash77 already fixed in post #392?

Here are the latest findings that vectorplexus found before he took a pause:



As you can see the animation part of the mod need a python to be fixed. But also the aging problem need a python to be fixed. Are you that python?

Edit:
Sorry, I now saw that you updated the version v0.06.1 and not the version v0.04.1 that almost all use.
So maybee some other issues are already solved in that version. I will make a test.

It works for adults and teens. I don't use it for younger age groups.

I have tested a bit and it seems short sims of all ages get better looking legs than in the original mod. The toddler issue is not solved though and I didn't expect that either.
The toddler fix by vectorplexus may solve that issue. The Ash77 fix seems not necessary with Arturlwww version as they probably solved the same bug.

Hopefully aging or genetics vill work if we base the mod on version.v0.06.1 instead of v0.04.1. Simmythesims says someware that he thought he had it working but it was destroid by an EA patch.

@Arturlwww: Please change the .zip extension of the file containing the scripts to .ts4script that is standard extension for script files in TS4.
You will have a huge number of installation questions from noobs that will unzip that file.

@Noobs: Just unzip ArtUrlWWW_Sliders v. 006.2.zip.

Its working thank you! Guys you have to put the zip file directly into the mods folder!

No, you don't have to. You can have it in a subfolder in Mods folder but not deeper. In 7-zip just extract to the suggested folder ArtUrlWWW_Sliders v. 006.2

Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\mods\ArtUrlWWW_Sliders v. 006.2

ArtUrlWWW_Sliders_Script.zip
Bulge Slider.package
Hand Slider.package
Height Slider Growth.package
Height Slider Short.package
Height Slider Tall.package
Neck Slider.package

I'm finding with the gradual growth mod that the children are random heights that don't seem to be related to their age. Is it because I used Command Center to make custom lifespans maybe?

I think all sims in game, including children, are first set to a random height and start growing gradually from there.

As you maybe can see in the code below an age check is made and if child it sets the height slider to 15.36 * sim_age + simHeightStat - 100
So it is not only the age multplied by a value but also adding simHeightStat - 100.
The simHeightStat comes from simHeightStat = stat_commodity.get_value()

What value is that? Anyone that can comment the code?

Is that Python code?

That is correct

Ah, that explains why I haven't come across it when messing with these files myself then. I can't do Python. Seriously.

sure you can! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpPG0bKHYKc Python is fun and it's not too difficult as far as programming languages go! if you ever have some extra time, follow along with some youtube vidoes, or check out codeacademy.com or tutorials point. Happy coding!

The extension .py is Python source code and .pyo is the compiled version.

The language is like many others but the problem is where all these imported libraries is coming from and the documentation for them.
When I worked as a programmer the comments was larger than the actual code. The latest language I learnt was Perl or actually Expect

Thanks for the encouragement but I really can't. I've looked into it before and it all just goes over my head. If there isn't a GUI involved then I get lost very fast. I might as well be trying to read Russian.

That was you that get the source code from simmythesims. That was OK but problem is that we got the code for the mod that was never finished.
The old mod is working but was probably programmed in C# and we don't have the source for that, do we. Maybe it is easier for someone like you to make changes to that code or....?.

I have absolutely no coding experience at all other than tweaking some small bits of object tuning files.
The files that I shared came directly from simmythesim. They were the only ones he gave me.

The sliders used to work for me including the toddler fix and I did use the new script but now every time I try to type in the cheat it does nothing. Yes my game is up to date.

I can't seem to make this work in my game! It used to work. I type the cheat in right (i.e. add_slider height 100) and I have tried all the different options to make it work (updated files within these comments, plus the toddler one) and I can't seem to make it work! My game is up to date as well. I think I need a little lesson in how to make it work, can anyone help me?

This is the only mod that actually changes the height of all ages of sims. And now it isn't working! I could have my toddlers look like one was 1, and the other 3. My children could look 7-12 years old! Now my game seems lame :/ If someone can tell me what setup they have to get it working I'd be so grateful! I make custom poses on Tumblr, whoever can help me will get a posepack? Haha I'm desperate!

For some bizarre reason mine ONLY works when I have "testingcheats true" active. No where from what I have seen was that stated so I'm not sure if that's the problem. The version I have is the one that Arturlwww had posted -> comment #518 on page 21. Not sure if they'd be okay with me reposting the link or not but as a precaution I won't, but it's fairly easy to spot. Hope any of that helps

Not gonna spam my comment but I posted one directly before this one stating how I use mine. I still have the toddler issue but Arturlwww's rework has everything else working on my end.

Did it automatically change the height of the toddlers? Mine has never done that! Would be good though.

Yeah, a little height difference is nice, but I've got kids who are about to age to teens who are the same height as the ones who just aged from toddler, and vice versa. It just seems a bit off.

HELP Please!!!!
 

Okay, I REALLY wanna try this mod but when I enter
add_slider Height 100
Or anything else, nothing happens. Yes, I have script mods and the other mod option enabled. And I entered "testingcheats on" before I put this in. I also tried without doing that. I've done it in live mode and CAS. Nothing happens. Nada. I would REALLY appreciate if you could help me figure this out... Please, I really wanna have fun with this mod!

Have a good day, and great job! Mod looks fun!

What files from what pages are you using? It is so many combinations now.

Works ok with me for the 22/23.08.17 patch, I'm using the Hand and Neck slider from the first page (a lot of sliders...) (#1 ); Vectorplexus' Height Short, Tall, and Growth (#317 ) ; Ash77 updated script (#392 ); and Cmar's foot slider (#469 )

Edit: forgot to mention that I use the commands for toddler and children only, teens and up use the foot slider and the height remains the same after age up through testing. commands for neck and hands work for teens and up, I haven't tested it on children or toddlers nor do i see any reason to

EDIT #2: I had problems with using the Growth script (really ugly weird teen stretching) so I removed it and it's fine now. I also switched the Hand and Neck slider from "A Lot of Sliders..." to the "STABLE..." version. Just in case others had the same problem...
ALSO, I shared some sims using this height slider set up with a friend who didn't have them installed, and it caused their game to crash, so a word of precaution for sharing sims. Their game was fine and they could play the sims when they had the sliders in, and it also reactivated GODJUL1's slider (and my sims were even more taller in their game). That slider is here .
Maybe it's best to remove the slider mods before sharing sims? I'm assuming it's Cmar's up down foot slider that causes the crash as it adds a slider that's not in the vanilla game.

Hmm, interesting with the aging. What do you mean with "through testing". I thought I have tested it in different ways before but without any luck.

Age up naturally?
Age up with cheat?
Age up in CAS?

The sliders worked fine for me a few days ago, however it appears that whenever I pick up my toddler the arms bend backwards and you cannot see them carrying the toddler. Also the bodies of my Toddler seem to elongate with tiny legs and bent knees. My teenagers also seem to have body distortion. I removed the sliders from my game. I am patched to the latest patch provided. I per-ordered Cats & Dogs, but I am hoping that doesn't have anything to do with the issues I am experiencing.

I've enabled both "custom content" and "script mods", but I haven't been able to get either the newest or the stable version to work.
They just load in properly, all mods present, other mods are working fine, but when I type the commands, like "add_slider Height -50" or "add_slider Neck -100", nothing happens (in Live mode). Removing all other mods has no effect.

I am using windows 10, might that be the problem? Because I don't think I'm doing something wrong. And if so, what am I doing wrong?

Is there any way to increase the range on the existing bones/sliders for things like calves, forearms etc?

Anyone can remake the bones of this mod to make more short and more talls toddlers? Just a little adjust ^.^

@mooncakemimz
Read post #545 to get started. Read from #314 to learn more what is going on in this project.

Just aging up through CAS, teen up to adult. I don't believe children maintain any slider information (upon aging up to a teen) from the cheat window because that height script doesn't affect teens + ? I haven't tested it through natural aging up, but seeing as Cmar's foot slider is an in CAS thing I'm sure that information stays with the teen.

I don't really get how to use the command. any help?

Hello!
I do not know what happens but in my game the mod does not work at all. I took all the mods and CPs and it still did not work. The script is enabled, I select the SIMS, I put the codes (add_slider Height 100) but it does not work. What can I be doing wrong?

What mod? This is a ceator feedback thread where the creator left before the mod was published.

But the best description of the status of this mod-project is this:
http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...336#post5260336

Read from post #314 for more info.

In any case, you can try to use another mod version, adapted for newest version of The Sims 4 - http://artfun.pw/mods/ArtUrlWWW_Sliders/ .

@ArtUrlWWW Even your version of the mod seems to be not functioning in the current version =(
I've tried to run it in combination with other mods and alone. I've tried capital and lower case letters for the commands. I've run it with and without testingcheats enabled. And I have tried the mod in the Mods folder directly, in a subfolder, with and without unzipping the scripts forlder within it and basically everything in various combinations.
No matter what I do, nothing happens when I enter the command.

Interesting! Have you got lastException.txt or gameCrash.txt in the folder named The Sims 4?

This works! Great mod, make sure you download Ash's script override!
http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...644#post5218644

I do, but it's an older one. From before I tested your mod. And the game does not generate a new one if I try to run it with just your version.

I've tried out multiple height mods so far, and one common issue I notice is that short sims will clip through chairs and beds when sitting down.
Does the latest 2 versions of this mod cause short Sims to sink through chairs, couches and beds ?

Where do I put the commands? In cheat window? If so something is not right since nothing happens.

Can you change height by dragging the foot slider left/right in CAS?

Have you installed the parts listed here?
http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...336#post5260336

Thanks for the info, Tachyonics ! And thanks to Ash77 of course !
Cause yes, this works on game version 1.34.
Excellent !

Okay. I've removed and re-added everything making absolutely sure to have the reccomended mods in place.
The feet slider in CAS works perfectly under this setup so that makes me a happy camper. ^^
The commands, however do not. And as I mostly want to use this on children (who would rely on commands) I am somewhat at a loss.
I might just be stupid and doing something obvious wrong. XD'

Can I ask the people who do use it, have it working and use the commands to share a screenshot of the game with the correct command input?

Did you install the mods in the order mentioned here?
http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...336#post5260336

Extract all of them into the same folder and allow files to be overwritten.

Yes, that's exactly what I did. Still, the commands do not give any response which is why I'm wondering if I'm a derp and am somehow messing something else up.
I read enough of r/talesfromtechsupport to know that it there's a high probability this is a user error XD Which is why I was hoping for a screenshot. Just to know if I can rule that possibility out.

add_slider height -50 är allt du behöver skriva.

Edit:
add_slider height -50 is all you need to write.

*googles other language* Ah, so it was sweedish. I somewhat understood it but I had to doubblecheck. XD

And that is what I thoght it was, so thank you.
Hm. Weird. I don't know why it is not working then. =(

The problem I'm having is the height variations affect most physical interaction animations like hugging and kissing. A taller person ends up kissing someone above the head in mid air, and even a slight variation and the alignment is off. I'm not a big modder but maybe setting each age at a specific height and then re-adjusted to match would work.

I have a little problem.
When I make taller children/toddlers they float and when I make shorter children/toddlers they bend their knees a lot. Am I the only one having this issue, if not can someone fix this please.

This is not a mod yet and no one is working on it.
What combination of files do you use? How do you set height, in CAS or in cheat console?

Well, I use Vectorplexus Toddler Fix with Ash 77 script so I set the height in cheat console.
But I don't seem to have legs problems on toddler and children with the original packages made by simmythesim.

Suddenly I get the toddler problem back so I checked my installation and started from scratch. I did a version based on this desciption by punchthecarbonara:



Optionally get the mod by CMAR's HeightSlider in CAS Feet.zip in post #469.

Set the height in CAS on young adults, adults and elders with the feet slider. Use the cheat console only for toddlers and children.

I still have the same problem. But I'm looking for a way I can fix it myself.

can someone help me with the fix for the toddler thing. When I pick up a toddler the sim's arm is like twisted and disfigured. What am I suppose to do to fix this?

Download the zip instead of the files you've already downloaded. Drag the packages in your mod folders and let the files overwrite the files you've already downloaded.

Have you tried mine? There are now 31 downloads and not much complaints so....
http://modthesims.info/showthread.p...155#post5289155

Edit:
Wow, 60 downloads but not a single respons. Is it woking now?

Is there a way to use the sliders on sims that are not part of your household without going into their household and making them playable? I wanna make my butler taller, but if I make him playable the game generates me a new butler x.x

If you use the foot slider version by CmarNYC in post #469 ( https://www.modthesims.info/sh...255#post5231255 ) then you should be able to shift-click him and select Edit In CAS then change his height from there. You will need to enable testing cheats and the cas.fulleditmode cheats as well before entering CAS.

oh, I thought it was outdated. If I add that mod, will I have to remove this one?

Just wanted to say thank you
I tried the height and it works perfectly, finally can have tall or short parents playing with their toddlers !

Can someone help me with a thing? I have modified the mod to become more realistic and now I have a bug when tall and short sims move their arms too close to the hip.

Sorry, my English is a work in progress

Below is an screenshot to know better what is happening and the mod to fix it.

Sorry, can't help but what is more realistic with your mod? What is different to the one by vectorplexus?

I've downloaded your mod and edited it. My mod have more height differences, and it modify other body parts. For exemple: Tall Sims have taller legs and short sims have shorter legs.

I can't remember which bone pair you need to edit but one of them controls the offset for the arms. I had the same problem when I edited the foot slider for my own personal use. It's been that long since I made the changes though I can't remember which I edited. Sorry.

I use the Bone Delta tool to edit the bones, I don't know if it need to create a new bone to fix it.

I just opened the package with sims4studio and messed around with the bones already in there and one of the pairs fixed the issue. I've never used the Bone Delta Tool.

How did you manage to find a resource to edit the bones with sims4studio?

I just edited what was already in the Height Slider Short package. There's a Bone Pose resource already in there. If you select that and then in the right side of the window click on Edit Items... next to Deltas. They're not named though so it was just trial and error.

I don't know well how the bone hash works. I just need a expert to help me with this.

I've downloaded the v6, the bottom one that says "tons of sliders", I've tried to change the height of my sims, with "add_slider Height -100" and tried it at 100 paused in live mode and got nothing. I have script mods and custom content checked in game options. i also tried the one labeled "stable". neither worked on regular sims or vampires. I'm using windows 10 if that matters. am i doing something wrong? i feel like i'm missing something.
i looked through other answers for as long as i could manage without frustration and found nothing helpful..

I know what the problem is. The old script is incopatable with the latest game patches, you need to download the fix by Ash77.

when i open the zip file there's nothing in it

Sorry, I forget to move the file to the folder.

The short and tall Sliders by Vectorplexus need to be Updated. The Sims' arms bend weirdly through the side of their bodys. Happen after yesterday's patch update.

Try the fix by Morphar, now I'm trying to edit it to make more height differences but it's not ready yet, the arms of my Sims are twisted when they move their arms too close to the hip. I need an expert in bone hash to help me to finish it.

Okay thank you. I downloaded the package files. I won't be able to test it until after my G.E.D classes.





Reporting back: Their arms still bend through the side of their body.

I'm looking for an expert to help me with this.

Hey; would anyone be willing to compile a list of necessary files/instructions so I can use the height mod after the most recent patch? I appreciate all of your efforts to update it, but it's very confusing to dig through old threads and knowing which files I need. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

C +crtl or C + alt add_slider height 100 through -100 press enter. (In live mood)

Bones data tool used to create sliders. (Offset will move the bone, scale will resize it. X is up/down Z is left/right, Y is forward/backward.) Editing/fixing a slider will require to save over it.

Will also need S4PE and Sims 4 Studio.
