Height slider♥

Yass! I would love this, to be honest I can't believe it not in the game :open_mouth:

YES! Everyone being the same height has been annoying!!! I wanna play more short smurf self!

you'll have tall sims bending down to talk to short sims :D

Nearly every single animation in the game would have to be revamped so that the animations wouldn't look ridiculous if they added height sliders. A tall sim kissing a short one would really just be making out with the Sim's forehead as opposed to their mouth.

If people want their Sims game to have a lot of depth, meaning a lot of things to do and try, that's already a lot of animations there. Now adding to that animations for Sims of differing heights, that's a WHOLE LOT more animations. Even if you did just the Tall option alone, that's twice the animations of the whole game and added DLC.

I wouldn't expect such a thing in this game or the next. But there could be some experimenting with it in TS6.

Now personally? I would really like a height slider, anything to give my character the depth needed to make seeing him grow entertaining. But I would definitely rule out its possibility of appearing in this game, at the very least.

EDIT: Maybe not a slider since how would the game detect your Sim being tall as opposed to being short? I'd say set heights, short, average, and tall with a hidden trait identifying your Sim as such so the game knows what animations to play.

But I don't know anything about game design, I'm just speculating here.

I am currently using a height slider mod and I love how it adds so much more depth to my sims and townies! The only problem with it is that some animations don't work very well, such as kissing and carrying toddlers :D
It would be amazing if TS4 ever had height options. A slider is probably too much to ask, but I would be happy to even have three different height options (short, average, tall). But I guess it's too difficult for the devs to do this for TS4, still..?
But if there ever will be a Sims 5 I wish they would include height with it! I think it would be a step forward in The Sims series.

Duuuuuude that would be one of the best things to add is a height slider!!!!!!1

A height slider would be great. But I agree, pre-set height choices would be more practical. The greater ability to customize your Sim would be worth though. Hope they do it some time.

I would love this because I am personally short but I think we are going to have to wait for the sims 5 to see this.

I have a mod for height sliders and I love it! However, when sims of different heights kiss and do certain interactions it looks a bit off so I don't know if they will ever do that.
