If you need help with the mod, please go to our Discord server instead of posting here. Do not post here or in the Discord right after a patch to say that it is broken, we are active during patches and working on it unless we say otherwise.
2025 January 18th - Re-updated the Chingyu Compatible file due to outdated manifest hash for PlumbBuddy. Not important if you don't use the PlumbBuddy app.
2025 January 15th - Version 1t updates the mod for Patch 1.112. Remember to only download ONE version!
2024 November 7th - Version 1s - EA decided to add a trait limit at some point for changing traits through the interaction cheats or re-trait potion, and more than 3 would not work correctly if you started adjusting them in those menus. We fixed it so it should now work correctly when using those menus.
2024 October 26th - Version 1r updates the mod for Patch 1.110, and has had a visual change which will fix Pet icons being weird. Remember to only download ONE version!
2024 July 26th - Version 1q updates the mod for Patch 1.108. Remember to only download ONE version!
2024 March 11th - Version 1p fixes the bug where aging up from Teen to Young Adult only showed three trait sots. Remember to only download ONE version!
2024 March 1st - Version 1o updates the mod for Patch 1.105. Remember to only download ONE version!
2023 December 7th - Version 1n updates the mod for Patch 1.103. Remember to only download ONE version!
2023 July 19th - Version 1m updates the mod for Patch 1.99. Remember to only download ONE version!
2023 June 2nd - Version 1l updates the mod for Patch 1.98. Remember to only download ONE version!
2023 March 17th - Fully updated now! Remember to only download ONE version! Also remember that you should NOT be using ChingyuOptionsCompatible if you are NOT using their MoreTraitsMod_Options file. If you don't know what that mod is, that means you should grab the regular version of our mod.
Delete the previous TUNINGONLY file, it is not needed anymore. Clear your avatarcache and localthumbcache before launching your game with the new version, tutorial.
Notes:
- With EA's new "Discoverable Traits" system with the Growing Together patch, YA+ sims can technically have up to 8 traits (5 CAS traits + 3 from Discovery). The game will prompt you about adding them, so you can reject them if you'd like.
- Infants remain at 1 trait.
Have you ever wished your sims could have more than three traits? Perhaps there simply wasn't enough room for all of your desired ones and the limitations of the base game forced you to narrow it down to three again, leaving you conflicted at the menu.
Introducing More Traits in CAS! (And now impacts lots!)
Now your sims can have up to five different traits with absolute ease, giving your sims the possibility to have more depth and personality than before. With this mod, your sim can be a loner, clumsy, a dog lover and vegetarian! Never again will you have to watch your supposedly vegetarian sim happily eat a hamburger again just so he could be a music lover instead. The combinations are endless, at least if you don't do the math on that!
Together with adult sims, all other ages (except infant) have additional trait slots now too:
Elder: 5 traits
Adult: 5 traits
Young Adult: 5 traits
Teens: 4 traits
Children: 3 traits
Toddlers: 2 traits
Yes, you read right. Your toddlers can now be fussy and clingy. Isn't that great? Infants will remain at 1 trait though, due to their already chaotic nature and it fits with how the other ages go down by 1.
Lots can now have 5 lot traits as well (this is due to an unfixable EA change that connects CAS slots to Lot slots).
Other things to consider:
Base game compatible.
Your game version must match the UI version you download unless an update was not necessary (which we mention on our status post). You cannot use new files on old games and vice versa, just like any other mod.
You do not need to fill all 5 trait slots if you do not want to. Sims can exist with just one trait (this is a regular game feature).
Does not fill the other trait slots for existing sims unless they age up or are manually changed.
With EA's new "Discoverable Traits" system with the Grow Together patch, YA+ sims can technically have up to 8 traits. The game will prompt you about adding them, so you can reject them if you'd like.
Pet trait slots have not been changed yet as they weren’t cooperating when testing.
Recommended mods: LittleRedSonja's Improved Observant Trait mod will allow sims with the Observant trait to learn everything about a sim, including the extra traits you would add with our mod. You can read their description for more info.
Conflicts with:
~ Neia's/KingZace More Clubs Per Sim
~ Flerb's addon_Flerb_more_traits.package from the Automatic Sunburns V10a mod
~ Bienchen's LessLongLivingActiveSims
~ Chingyu's MoreTraitsMod_Options file if you aren't using the compatible version.
~ Age Matters by SotaruSims
Does not conflict with these other UI mods such as UI Cheats, More Columns in CAS, wrench overrides, TOOL etc. Will be compatible with all other regular mods.
Compatible version attached to work with Chingyu1023's MoreTraitsMod_Options for Sims and/or Pets. If you use one of their files that gives sims less traits, the extras simply disappear when you go in-game. If you download a file that allows more traits, you add the extras in-game as usual with their mod. Note that this version is only required if you are using Chingyu1023’s MoreTraitsMod_Options mod and would like more customization, otherwise download the regular file. Do NOT download both versions, choose one.
Chingyu1023’s mod: https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-more-cas-41343966
The chingyu_AddTraitsMenu and 100 Base Game Traits (and all other mods) have nothing to do with More Traits in CAS and do not require the compatible version.
How do I use More Traits in CAS?
Using this mod is very simple as it merely extends the trait bar in CAS by one or two hexagons depending on the age, and lets you select extra traits for your sim. To use this mod on an existing sim or household, simply edit them using the cas.fulleditmode cheat, MCCC, or Chingyu1023’s AddTraitsMenu.
Is uninstalling the mod okay?
Yes. If you remove the mod, the extra traits disappear from your sim, but this won't cause any issues.
Why does the first part of CAS and CAS Stories still show three traits?
This is only a visual bug. It won't impact the traits you can pick for your sim.
Is this mod compatible with custom traits?
Yes, it is! However, old custom traits made or updated before Snowy Escape were broken by an EA update back then, so you'll need to get an update by the creator.
Am I able to change the number of traits?
Yes, if you're using the version compatible with Chingyu1023's mod and have both installed, you are able to add more than the maximum amount of traits in-game through their menus. These will, however, not be displayed in CAS.
How do I install?
Installation is easy; choose ONE file only, then simply drop the downloaded file into your mods folder.
Are there older versions available?
If for some reason you have not updated yet and want a previous patch version, you can find old versions here. Please do not ask for support when using older versions.
This is because:
1) You have a conflict, please check the above for a list.
2) You installed the ChingyuOptionsCompatible version but do not have the required files!
That second reason is the most common issue that we hear about. Please do not download that file if you are not using the MoreTraitsMod_Options file from this mod. When in doubt download the regular version, do not download the compatible.
