Learn to Use the FUCKING SLIDERS!!!!

I don't have the time to go through each and every single slider with you...so here's a quick primer on Head Shape with the first four "dots" in Head and Ears.

1. Here's your familiar opening array of faces when you go in to see the Head and Ears tab in CAS.

Wanna know why that's important - it's because that's where you're going to be picking your STARTING POINT.

2. When you click that magnifying glass - you get to your sliders. Your first setting is global, that's where you adjust your selected head-shape and whether it's going to remain a "basketball" like you think all Sims 3 heads are. You see where I highlighted? That's called your head-width slider (and yes, that's one of the basic ones that you receive when you open up TS3)


3. The second slider you can manipulate to change the head shape is jaw width. You notice how some RL people have sharply angled jaws. This is what you use to create that.


4. The Jaw Height slider affects how far down on the face the point of your jaw is going to be with that sim. That also changes the facial structure of the sim.


6. If you go into Cheeks, you will find Cheekbone Height and Cheekbone Shape. These two sliders affect exactly how the shape of your sim's cheeks are going to be and where the cheekbone is reflects on how the shape of the face will appear - if you have high cheekbones, you're going to want to crank the slider to the right completely, if your cheekbones are low, you go left.

These two sliders can actually drastically change a sim's appearance.

7. Cheek fullness...does your sim have sunken in cheeks or does he/she have full cheeks An example of where I used this and the previous two sliders...


Of course after this, I'm still sure that most TS3 detractors will say, "Oh...I still think they look the same." Well, I can't help you there. If at this point that you can't figure out how or where to use these sliders, I'm sorry, but I've seen people work wonders with these sliders.

I can't help those who aren't willing to put in the time and the effort.

Further to this: There are some people that make me want to take my mouse and shove it down their throats with their ability to "troll" a forum to leave idiotic fucking comments. Perhaps it would have been better if she stayed in TS4 forums.
