More Traits in CAS lets you add more traits to your sims in Create a Sim.
The ages and their new personality trait counts:
Young Adult and older: 5 traits (up from 3 previously)
Teen: 4 traits (up from 2)
Child: 3 traits (up from 1)
Toddler: 2 traits (up from 1)
Infants remain at one trait.
Remember that despite more traits being available, you don't need to fill out all traits!
Self discovery (from Growing Together/EP13) still works with this mod installed, so your sim can still unlock even more traits during gameplay.
They'll show as a little hexagon near the second to the last trait.
A slightly redesigned trait layout makes it easier to add more variants down the road. The previous version went over the sides because it added more traits while keeping the same size, but this update makes them fit in the original space.
Lot traits are now more similar to the human traits in layout.
The personality trait panel extending beyond the right corner of the box when aging up or drinking the personality potion is now fixed.
Lots of behind the scenes changes were made to make updating More Traits in CAS much easier using python scripts to edit the xml.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is updating from the previous version to this version okay?
Can you use CC traits with More Traits in CAS?
Where did the chingyu version go?
Vicky Sims/chingyu hasn't posted on their patreon since September 2025, so I've currently stopped providing support for this version. If you still need it, let me know below!
Yes, but any traits exceeding the default EA maximum will be removed on your sim.
Do pets gain additional traits with this mod?
Right now, no. I'm looking forward to see how feasible it is to add them though!
This modifies the traitsmoleculelibrary gfx file, and also the sims.aging.aging_tuning tuning and simdata files. Any mod that modifies these will conflict with More Traits in CAS.
Special thanks to the devs behind S4Studio, the devs behind JPEXS ffdec, and the devs behind python and lxml.
