Ah, thank you very much for quick and clear answer. No wonder it sounded too good to be true. Back to drawing board.

Default Arms out of wack Bone Delta
HI, so I'm working on a preteen height mod and managed to set the height but I've been having issues. The arms keep rotating into the body every time I raise the pelvis. I need to raise the pelvis in order to keep the legs from bending in-game, but for some reason, it's causing a weird reaction in the arms. Secondly, I can't figure out how to keep the knees from stretching after elongating the thighs to make the sim taller. I tried adjusting the knee slot but nothing happens. Also, I've tried adjusting the upper arms, forearms, and clavicle to see if it would fix the arms but again my success was to no avail. If anyone knows what I can do to fix both issues please do explain. Photo Below.


Thanks!

The arm position problem looks like you're trying to use a DMap morph to change the height. That causes distortion, I think because the skeleton then doesn't match the mesh and some mechanisms like slot rays that the game uses to position parts of the body become incorrect.

If you're using only a bone morph to change height, you'll just have to experiment. You can use Luumia's height slider as an example of the adjustments that will work well.

Please do not PM me with mod, tutorial, or general modding questions or problems; post them in the thread for the mod or tutorial or post them in the appropriate forum.

Thanks for your response. However, I never adjusted the DMap mesh height only thickened the legs and hips in the mesh. I only used the bone morph to change the height and when I raised the pelvis slot it caused the arms to distort. But, I'll check out Luumina's height slider mod. Thanks!

BTW, I don't know if I can ask this here, but I've tried several times to get Luumina's height slider to work in my game, but I can't seem to change the height. I've checked the scripts and used the cheat add_slider height 50 and still nothing is changed. Do you know how I can fix this?

Is this what you're trying to use? https://luumiasims.com/post/1748676...r-plus-moremore

There are no scripts or cheats in it that I'm aware of. Are you using the neck slider and presets?

Can you upload your preteen height package so I can take a look?

Edit: Are you making this for TS3 or TS4? You're posting in the TS3 Morphmaker thread. Please post and upload in the right thread.
