Just open the cheats menu and type help, I think, and it should be there in a list.  Beware, though, I tried to use it once, and the sim I tried it on looked absolutely wierd, he was either about 90 feet tall, or a 2foot midget!

I use it a lot! Sim Brynne is a dirty old lady!
type stretchSkeleton 1.0 into the cheat box for adult height, and stretchSkeleton 0.94 for teen.

Before I posted, I typed:

help
help stretchskeleton

neither gave me any information. Is there some other symbol I need to use or word it differently in the box?

Too bad it can't be applied to certain Sims permanently (as I'm sure has been mentioned many times before in many places). Not even with those startup cheats? Hmm. I guess it wouldn't know which Sim to apply the stretchskeleton to, as I'm assuming you have to have the one you want selected when you enter the cheat.

I have a hypothesis that it may be changable permanently (for the current lifestage, anyhow) by editing the character file directly in SimPE... I noticed a line for stretchskeleton the last time I was editing a character file, and the number value for it is the same as what one would input with the cheat. However, I haven't played with it yet, so I don't know what horrible things it might do to a character or neighborhood. I really should look into that the next time I can be arsed to create an expendable neighborhood.

Actually, it can be applied to a sim forever. But it requires a bit of SimPE editing, and I've forgotten how you do it. I remember that there's a value in the character files (somewhere), stretchData or something like that, and you just edit that to make size changes permanent.

I know it works, I have several severely deformed sims in one neighbourhood to prove it...

EDIT: Is it in the Age Data (AGED) section? That's the only thing I can remember that seemed like it had something to do with this sort of thing...

That would indeed be interesting to experiment with - I may have to try it myself also. Will give me an excuse to remember to back up my game again...

Aha! Thanks, Venusy, it's nice to know that it does actually work. I remember that line being pretty easy to spot and I'm fairly comfortable in SimPE, so it shouldn't be difficult to do a bit of experimenting tomorrow.

Excellent! It drives me nuts to have to enter StretchSkeleton each time I play my Freezepop sims (who use 1.02, 1.0 and 0.95 respectively - it doesn't exactly match the height differentials of the real-life people, but it was the best combination I came up with). This'll stop me having to throw away photos because I forgot to enter the cheat!

Kudos to you *clicks the imaginary thank you button* Cheesy

I've been meaning to edit that, myself, but keep forgetting to when I shut my game down. I have several teens who are older, but not quite ready for YA status in my story, so I've been stretching them every time I enter the lot.

Done, and it works perfectly. The odds with the animation is no worse than what I've gotten used to in an adult-teen relationship, and it looks so much more real now to have varied heights.

Oh, yeah!... now I can make sim me short like she should be!  LOL

I wondered if it was possible, and I do remember seeing the location in the sim files.

I may adjust the heights of some of my adult sims, now. I'm on the tallish side in real life (5'7 1/2), and it bugs me that all my male sims are my height.
