I am currently experiencing a completely non-working mod. It has worked for me in the past, but recently it has stopped. I downloaded the stable version, along with the toddler patch, yet I am unable to change the heights of my sims. I enter the proper commands, but nothing seems to change.
Am I perhaps missing an important step?

And have you also got the updated slider script fix file from Ash77 in post #392 (page 16 i think). My apologies if you have. I only use the short and tall toddler fix sliders and the slider script fix and its working fine for me.

Hi! Everything seems to be working, but just curious if theres a way to fix the clipped heads of shorter and taller sims in their little headshot icons in the bottom left corner? This is just an aesthetic complain haha so if theres nothing to do theres no biggie.

Nobody knows how to change the portrait pictures yet. Or even if it's possible. The cameras are set at a fixed height for them.

Is there a height mod for teens - elders that works without the kiss/hug, carring toddlers and so on bugs?
If there is please link to what I need 😬

I use the combination given in post 490. It works perfectly and you can adjust by pulling their feet and in CAS. You need to follow the instructions in post 317 carefully.

It's still working in my game. I know because I was only using it yesterday.
The files in the first post haven't worked for a long time but there have been several updates by other members throughout the replies.

Post #317 is the key. Start there.

Remember that this is the original mod:
http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=559329
It is the only fully working mod. The animation could probably be a little smother but can, if changed, result in strange toddler handling. Short sims get stiff legs.
Some people don't like to use the foot slider as a height slider in CAS. Others don't like to set the height in the cheat console.

Original source code:
https://1drv.ms/u/s!Am8KXkA0MW12hjkJiY_T6hHUV3KS

Here is an attempt to just improve animation but resulted later in toddler handling issue.
http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=588159

Post #490 have a summary of one alternative setup.

My personal priority is:
Shorter teens than adults.
Nicer animations of short sims.
Set heights survive aging.
Realistic genetics.
Height setting in CAS
Height setting in cheat console.

This is what is happening since the latest update. I did not get a pic of the children, they were all walking with bent knees. I just removed the sliders for now. I do have the updated script and verto's updates for the slider. I really like the sliders and they were working just fine until the update.

And, I see changes in Python code of the game API.
Console version is not working for all, right? I am saying about file A lot of sliders for The Sims 4 v0.06.1.zip.

I forget which version of everything I am using now but I am using the CAS feet slider version made by CmarNYC to actually alter heights.

But what did you fix? To my knowledge there are no problems with the console commands. Did you fix the same problems as Ash77 already fixed in post #392?

Here are the latest findings that vectorplexus found before he took a pause:

Quote:
Ok here's a small update, on what is happening and how it can be fixed...

The problem is that the torso and legs ratio, in children and toddlers is different from Teens/YA/Adults and Elders. So if I fix the children/toddler I will break all other age's heights, and vice-versa. There is a way to fix this ofc, but it requires scripting (Python) and because I barely ever did anything in Python and because I'm not familiar with Sims 4 specific coding, its harder for me to try to code... I usually compare the way I'm coding in an unfamiliar language, to the Infinite monkey theorem, so I'm not even sure when and if I'll be able to pull this one out. I already looked at the scripts in more detail, and I have a general idea how I could fix it, to be able to have 2 sets of sliders (normal height and height for children/toddlers) but I'll make no promises, nor can I commit to a fast update, since I have no idea how much "face-rolling" will I need to do on my keyboard to have a functional script.

I will add though that I am finding my teen Sims bend their knees when they are shortened. Okay, so actually I've only tried the mod on one Sim because ALL I want is for teen Sims to be at a slightly shorter height by default, and his knees always seem to be slightly bent now.

That shouldn't be really happening on teens, but I'll check it out. Are Teens able to pick up Toddlers? I assume so, but I'm unsure


As you can see the animation part of the mod need a python to be fixed. But also the aging problem need a python to be fixed. Are you that python?

Edit:
Sorry, I now saw that you updated the version v0.06.1 and not the version v0.04.1 that almost all use.
So maybee some other issues are already solved in that version. I will make a test.

I have tested a bit and it seems short sims of all ages get better looking legs than in the original mod. The toddler issue is not solved though and I didn't expect that either.
The toddler fix by vectorplexus may solve that issue. The Ash77 fix seems not necessary with Arturlwww version as they probably solved the same bug.

Hopefully aging or genetics vill work if we base the mod on version.v0.06.1 instead of v0.04.1. Simmythesims says someware that he thought he had it working but it was destroid by an EA patch.

@Arturlwww: Please change the .zip extension of the file containing the scripts to .ts4script that is standard extension for script files in TS4.
You will have a huge number of installation questions from noobs that will unzip that file.

@Noobs: Just unzip ArtUrlWWW_Sliders v. 006.2.zip.

No, you don't have to. You can have it in a subfolder in Mods folder but not deeper. In 7-zip just extract to the suggested folder ArtUrlWWW_Sliders v. 006.2

I'm finding with the gradual growth mod that the children are random heights that don't seem to be related to their age. Is it because I used Command Center to make custom lifespans maybe?

I think all sims in game, including children, are first set to a random height and start growing gradually from there.

As you maybe can see in the code below an age check is made and if child it sets the height slider to 15.36 * sim_age + simHeightStat - 100
So it is not only the age multplied by a value but also adding simHeightStat - 100.
The simHeightStat comes from simHeightStat = stat_commodity.get_value()

What value is that? Anyone that can comment the code?

def SimGrowthOneSim(sim_info=None):
ageSpeed = services.get_age_service().aging_speed
pop = 0
if not services.get_age_service()._unplayed_aging_enabled:

if sim_info is not None:
pop = pop + 1
# ScumLog.log('1')
sim_age = sim_info._days_until_ready_to_age()
SimAge = sim_info.age
randomizeHeightIfDefault(sim_info)
manager = services.get_instance_manager(Types.STATISTIC)
stat_file = manager.get(18157023230166068511)
stat_commodity = sim_info.get_statistic(stat_file)
simHeightStat = stat_commodity.get_value()
if SimAge == Age.CHILD:
childHeightSlider = 15.36 * sim_age + simHeightStat - 100

teenHeightSlider = 0
elif SimAge == Age.TEEN:
teenHeightSlider = 7.68 * sim_age
childHeightSlider = 0
else:
if SimAge == Age.YOUNGADULT or SimAge == Age.ADULT or SimAge == Age.ELDER:
teenHeightSlider = 0
childHeightSlider = 0
if childHeightSlider is not None:
AddSimSlider.setModifierWithSimInfo('chs', childHeightSlider, sim_info)
if teenHeightSlider is not None:
AddSimSlider.setModifierWithSimInfo('ths', teenHeightSlider, sim_info)
