Butt Droop & Adam's Apple Sliders
🕑 Added 2023-04-09 16:44:40 +0000 UTCI've never tried making sliders before, but there were two things I wanted to add to my game - an adam's apple and a bit of a droop to a sim's butt. (I know, I know - most people probably want their sims to have bigger, perkier bottoms! I just wanted to give a bit of age to some of my sims.) Anyway, since I wanted those features to carry across a sim's appearance at all times, custom sliders were the way to go.
KEY INFORMATION:
1) Sliders have to be made using default sim body meshes. The adam's apple is a bit simplistic, but the only way to make it more detailed would be to override all top clothing in the game.
2) I've made the sliders for male and female sims (available as separate packages). The neck sliders are pretty subtle on a sim with mixed sex/frame (eg male sim with feminine frame), but there's not much I can do about that given the game's setup and limitations.
3) I've tested the sliders with a variety of necklaces and clothing items. The butt sliders can cause some texture stretching - but not much worse than the official weight sliders, in my opinion.
HOW TO FIND THE SLIDERS IN GAME:
Adam's apple: Head edit mode, side profile. Drag upwards on the neck to add the adam's apple, or drag downwards to remove it.
Lower butt: Body edit mode, back view. Drag down on the butt to lower the buttocks, or upwards to raise them back to the original position.
NOTE: These sliders will conflict with any other custom sliders that edit or alter the same hotspot controls (Neck and Butt).
I might make more sliders in the future, if inspiration strikes. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy these and that they add a bit more variety to your sim's bodies!
CHANGELOG
2025-05-31: Fixed an issue causing the back bottom edge of shirts to become distorted when using the Butt Droop slider on male sims. This was a little tricky to fix because moving the vertices one way causes an upwards "spike", while moving them the other way causes a downwards "spike". The edge isn't 100% perfect now, but the issue has been greatly minimized both in terms of the amount of distortion and the number of clothing items affected. There are still a small handful (maybe 5 or 6) items which show a distortion that I can't fully eliminate without causing other issues. The female version of this slider doesn't seem to cause that much distortion so didn't require an update.
For a comparison of the problem and the fix, check out the preview image I've added to the post with today's date.
Also separated Female and Male sliders into two separate zip files.
