This is not a clickbait but, yesterday I realized you can randomize sims from the gallery :o This honestly changed my life, it was a pain having to edit every ugly townie and making them at least more human like, if you're like me, please use this useful tool, as it makes your game more diverse, but sometimes you may need to click the randomize button a few times until you get your desired sim.

It's really funny what some people have known from Day 1 others are just finding this out. I have known about this feature since I installed Sims 4 in the beginning. But glad you found it!

Whoa whoa whoa. Hold up. You can randomize sims from the gallery?? I'm not sure where or how to do this but I'd love to know. I've only just begun really using the gallery, even though I've had the game for years. I'd love to replace townies. Sometimes I like doing it myself, but having to create new households for new saves in each neighborhood just for some "background people" gets...tiresome.

This is why the forums are so valuable. There's several aspects of this game I've only ever learned about because I came to the forums looking for an answer to one question, and found something else I wasn't looking for in the first place.

:open_mouth: :D It was right there, in such an obvious place, the whole time... Thanks for the red arrow, lol. I honestly don't think I could've found it myself after missing it for so long :D

This is so weird. I only discovered this yesterday too.

What I've learned is that some people make weird looking sims.

Now I wanna make a whole save populated with gallery sims only I'm not allowed to skip any, so if I get any of those uglacy founders I've gotta roll with it.

Is this done in the gallery or in CAS? I can’t find it in the gallery.

It's in CAS, I posted an image where you can find it.

Aren’t the sims that get “randomized” drawn from a limited selection?
