Have you been playing The Sims 4 on <\/span>Windows<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Mac<\/span><\/a> for a few months and want to edit your Sim? As you know, you can only alter them when you start the game, creating them for the first time. Or can you? There\u2019s actually a way to do so long after the creation process, and we\u2019re going to show you how.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to Edit Sims in The Sims 4<\/b><\/h2>\n

The only method available to edit Sims on The Sims 4 after you\u2019ve already started playing is by cheating. It\u2019s called CAS mode, letting you make changes as you did during character creation before returning to your simulated life. You can alter your appearance, traits, and relationships as you wish.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 1: Open the cheat console<\/b><\/h3>\n

First, you\u2019ll need to open the cheat console so you can put in the relevant codes. On PC, hold in control, shift, and C. You\u2019ll see a white window appear on the top of the screen.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Step 2: Enable cheating <\/b><\/h3>\n

Next up, it\u2019s time to enable cheats. Without this step, cheat codes won\u2019t work and you\u2019re wasting your simulated breath. The code you need is \u2018testingcheats true\u2019. You should see the message \u201cCheats are enabled\u201d to prove that you\u2019ve succeeded. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Step 3: Edit your Sim in CAS mode<\/b><\/h3>\n

Finally, enter the code \u2018cas.fulleditmode\u2019 to enable the CAS mode. If you\u2019re wondering why nothing is happening, it\u2019s because you still need to hold shift and select a character. As soon as you click on one, your Sim will enter the edit mode that you\u2019re familiar with. Now you can change your appearance and alter the traits that have been annoying you.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A change is as good as a holiday<\/b><\/h2>\n

Editing your Sim in The Sims 4 is a fun experience for many players. As a matter of fact, we\u2019ve seen children spending hours merely creating characters for the purpose of dressing them and playing with different personalities. Now you can do the same if you have a Sim you\u2019ve had for a while.<\/span><\/p>\n
