How do you change the body shape?

Been trying to figure out how to change the body shape of one of my characters that I already created in my game and everything I have tried has not worked so far. The button that says body does not seem to work. And I have read a lot of posts here and on youtube but the commands don't seem to work in my game. Is there some new code that does work that I may not be aware of? Anyways, here is an example of one post that I tried and it did not work: Can't post a link, but I will copy some things I have tried here:



Press Ctrl + Shift + C to open the cheats console.
Type the following, then press enter:
testingCheats on
Type the following, then press enter:
cas.fulleditmode
Press Esc to close the console.
Now Shift + Click any of your Sims, and select Edit in CAS
Change everything from body, to traits, names, voices and so on. Once you are done, hit Okay on the bottom right to save the changes.


I understand you first type in testingcheats on. Then what do I do to be able to completely edit, body, face and all? Where would you type in edit in full or what is the code to use? I've tried first testingcheats, then cas.editsiminfull, then clicked on my Sim to edit but could not edit her body or face. I also tried first testingcheats, then cas.fulledit mode but that didn't work. What am I missing?


Any suggestions would be appreciated.
  • You don't need testingcheats or "on" to use cas.fulleditmode. Just cas.fulleditmode will do it. It won't work if you're already in CAS, though, or from the Manage Households screen. It will work if you enter the cheat in Live Mode or in Manage Worlds.
  • Use cas.fulleditmode at the point where you get to choose a household to play - the map. From there, you can click the Household Management icon, find your family, and click on the pencil. All the CAS options should be there, from changing genders to stretching waistlines.
  • Okay, I figured it out, thanks everyone for your patience. I have been trying to find a good tutorial, but so far most of them seem either outdated or they don't explain everything that they are doing on the screen and I can't seem to follow them well.
    So sorry that it is taking me so long to figure out how to use this game. I've played in a lot of virtual worlds, but this one is so different than any I have tried.

  • I am pretty sure the only way to be able to fully edit them is to go to manage worlds and edit the family that way.. Doing it through the cheat doesn't give you full capabilities.
  • I use the cheat you listed. Try adding "on" after the cas cheat. Like this: cas.fulleditmode on
    I'm not sure, but I think I have to have on.

    Editing through the manage world is the same as editing them in the mirror or dresser. It's strictly regular appearance (Clothes, hair, makeup,etc) that you edit that way.

    I believe with the MC Command mod that you have the option to edit them fully in CAS as well. To be honest, I haven't checked the mod's CAS yet cause I always use the cheat.
  • Thanks Corenren! But I don't know how to do that. I tried what you suggested and I couldn't figure it out. I would need a step by step instructions, because I had no idea what to do once I got into my world.
  • I don't know where live mode or manage worlds is, all I see is manage household.
  • Glad you got it all sorted out. I was going to suggest using the word true after testingcheats, instead of 'on', since that's how it works in my game.
