And truly, the face templates are the only things that are necessary before you start.
Everything else you can add later. This ensures the most genetic variety in my neighborhood. I create a new tab on my spreadsheet so I can name my Sims and document their favorite colors, zodiac signs, aspirations, personalities, turn-ons and turn-offs as I create them. This is where I start thinking about my individual Sims and who they really are.
As I create them in body shop, I populate the favorite color field. Body shop is a utility that ships with The Sims 2.
If you want unique Sims that never look the same, this is the way to do it. Double-click the Body Shop icon to open the program. Depending on how much custom content you have, it can take several minutes to load. Give it time. Pooklet wrote a detailed post that you can read here about how she uses this method. Basically, we use random numbers to generate the faces. You can find them here:. First, create a new Sim in Body Shop. On the left panel, choose the gender, age, and weight.
I start with creating all my females first, but you can do it in any order you like. I also create all my Sims as adults. I usually leave all my Sims thin in the beginning, but you can make some fat ones too if you want. This gives me a random face template to start with. Then, choose your skin tone, eye color, and hair color and style.
Use Generator 1 to roll the face. This will give you a list of numbers anywhere from to 10 for each feature available to you in Body Shop. If you get a negative number, click on the first picture.
If you get a positive number click on the second picture to move the slider forwards and backwards accordingly. If you get a or a 10, you can simply slide the slider all the way to the edge with your mouse. Each modifier has a total of 20 clicks, 10 to the negative and 10 to the positive. Then, go through the list and click on each modifier the number of times you rolled. This is how her features will be defined. Repeat for all the face modifiers — starting with full face and ending with the jaw — using the generator to roll for each area.
The generator will give you TWO numbers for each area of the face. The face will smooth out even more and start to look more human. This is how I do it:. Then, I either let them keep the random outfit if it was decent or choose another in the same color. Players should not attempt to delete Maxis content from within Body Shop, even if it also shows the custom content "star", as that is likely to corrupt game files.
Each expansion pack and stuff pack has its own version of Body Shop, so a player with several Packs will have several versions, each with its own shortcut. Players should use the version which came with the most recent Stuff Pack or Expansion Pack they own. An early version of CaSIE was released prior to the launch of The Sims 2 , available as a free download and also distributed as a free promotional disk.
This version of CaSIE features a more limited selection of assets than that of the game itself, including several hairstyles that were changed before release. These unused hairs are available in the final release, but are hidden in Create-A-Sim. One of the hairs, known as "Meg hair", uses a texture from the final release instead of its original texture.
The other hairstyles all use their original assets. Three "content packs" were released for this version of Body Shop. All of these outfits are in the final release of the game, but are hidden in Create-A-Sim.
Installing this version of Body Shop on a system with the game itself installed can cause multiple issues, and is not recommended.
