Default Max letters for first & last name
Hiya! Sorry if this should be somewhere else, I think this is where it goes.

Could anybody tell me the max number of letters a sim's first and last name (each) can be? I'm compiling a list of names for a replacement mod and it occurred to me that some of these lookslikeyousmashedakeyboard surnames might be too long if there is a set limit, in which case I'd need to take those off my list.

Thank you!

Just played with it while in CAS and it was still allowing me to input more after 100 letters.... Hopefully your names aren't longer than that.

Update: I just went in game and typed as much as I could in the boxes and came out with 13 for each, and then in my google spreadsheet of names ran LEN and so far I don't have any 14,15,etc (but a few 13!) so so far I don't think the limit is posing an actual issue.
I guess if I come across a longer name that I just HAVE to have....but I doubt that will happen.

I think we posted at the same time. (and then you edited yours after I responded so now I have to edit my response) I wonder how come you're able to get to 100 and it stops me at 13.

I only edited my tablet auto-correcting cas to CAW for some reason. Maybe it's part of nrass cas expansion mod, I'm not sure.

I don't think that's it, unless it's a setting i haven't changed.

I think it really is Master Controller CAS part. I just did a test in unmodded game and there I could not get behind 13 characters in both first and last name. Then I put Master Controller with Cheats and Integration modules (not sure if Cheats module is really required here, but I added it anyway) and without any meddling with the settings, I got to over 50 characters now, probably could get even more, but I did not have a patience to write more.
