In The Sims 4 i’m trying to detail edit them but the icon isn’t there on the left side of their head

I’ve tried to detail edit every single sim and the icon just isn’t there, is this because they’re already existing and i can only do this on new sims or can i do something to get that icon back?


Solution 1:

You can only initially carry out detailed edits on Sims that are newly created. However, you can do the following to edit them later on:

  • Press Ctrl + Shift + C to bring up the cheat console.
  • Enter testingcheats true.
  • Enter cas.fulleditmode (this enables you to make full edits, like when you start a new game)
  • Now click on a sim while holding Shift down. You should get an "Edit in CAS" option. Click that option and you're ready to edit your sim.
