Seems like the Devs agree that Teens should be shorter..but thery're not.

I like her better shorter, but changing them at this point just won't happen sadly.

And yep, you got it working LOL

Well, it looks like mom has shoes with heels and the teen has flat shoes.

I don't think heels actually change a sim's height in TS4 - they appear to just make the legs shorter!

In this pic, I think the mom has bigger hair and is showing more forhead, so it might be visual illusion?

I don't think it is an illusion @Okto84 because look at where the daughters eyes are compared to the moms (?). And both of their heads are tilted.


But anyway it's just a render. Would be nice though if it was real.

Hasn't it already been confirmed there is no change to teen height?

It has @MidnightAura . Someone thought the teen looked shorter as well (not just me). :D But yeah the guru confirmed that they are not shorter, but still same height.

There can be teenagers who are like the same height as the parents aka me, I was the same height as my mother when I was a teenager.

It would be great if teens were shorter, I like the OP pic. the teen is definitely shorter.

Yeah to me that teen is clearly shorter in the render. I know it has been confirmed there is no height change on the game, but I find the render strange. Maybe they only wanted to convey it was a teen (to someone not familiar with the game) so they made it shorter. Maybe it was subconscious decision and they didn't realize it was actually shorter. To me it's the perfect height for the game. There are many teens irl whom are taller than the parents. I was one. Some are shorter and some are the same size. I think the perfect compromise would be the height in the pic, almost as tall as the parent. It may be to late for height changes in TS4 but if there is a TS5 it will be interesting to see what they do.

Hopefully TS5 will have more than one height for the age groups so we can make teens taller and shorter or than parents and siblings, etc. That would be fun.


I'll take that over the different walk styles. hehe

A height slider! Yes, that would be great! Imagine townies with random heights!

I wish teens were shorter too, but to me the pic just looks like the teen has her head tilted to the side which shaved a bit off the appearance of height.
