- ChocoCubNew SpectatorWhat can I say, I get carried away easily. :D
- It really varies for me. Depending on who I need to create to fit story. Sometimes it's just a filler character, and sometimes it's someone who I will be focusing on developing during my rotations. That said, I always try to spend as little time as possible in CAS, because I don't enjoy the process of trying to style a sim.
Sometimes it takes me 1+ hours if I am really invested in creating a long lasting Sim and can't find proper clothes to match, or am meddling too much with the make-up sliders. Sometimes I just randomize and slightly adjust anything I don't like, if the Sim is just a sidekick. But I enjoy building and storytelling way more than CAS, so I try to keep the necessary time in CAS as short as possible so I can move on to the fun things.
I do go to CAS a bit while playing, when I need to edit generated sims, rename, or edit and create relatives, but that usually doesn't take more than 10 minutes per.
Oh and almost forgot that the CAS includes creating Cats and Dogs. I spend more time on creating my dogs than I do creating my human sims. I love the paint feature and all the ways to change shape of everything. Almost every household I play has some/many dogs and some cats, and those who don't will get them somewhere down the line. They usually get strays but then I give them a complete make over based largely on the dogs I know IRL. I wonder if there's anyone else who spends more time on creating dogs than their human sims? - I'm always in a hurry to start playing :lol:
- brandontaylor615Rising TravelerAs much time as it takes to create who I want. And then, it may not be all at once.
- annaliese39New SpectatorPerhaps I am a perfectionist, but I can happily spend several hours in CAS.
- 1 sim takes a few hours. But when creating a family each sim takes less and less time.
- marea_a_moonNew SpectatorHonestly, i feel like it relies on my mood. Sometimes i dont feel like spending too much time making sims so i just rush through it. I dont really pay attention to the time though, but i would like to do that as i have gotten curious now XD
- Hauk120Rising RookieMy sim creation time varies. It depends on what character I’m making, how much inspired I am, or how hard or easy is that character to make, some of them are faster an easier to make, others require more time. But I don’t like to pressure myself and end with a bad result, I take all the time I need to finish it and end satisfied with my creations :)
- ^I had to vote that one because it was funny! :lol: And yeah...I don't time myself. :p
Seriously though, it depends on the sim and what I am creating them for. :) - ZombieParySeasoned NoviceI picked others. Because sometimes a sim just almost makes itself, and everything goes right all at once, and I can be done in under half an hour. However sometimes, the tweaking of a sim to get what I am envisioning, takes SO LONG and I can be in CAS for hours ( not all at once ) so I have to save the sim to work on for another day.
P.S - and then nearly all of mine turn out looking like relatives of each other anyway. It's maddening!
Also I love your avatar. Again.
