I think I may be missing something, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this.
I have run boolprop testingsheatsenabled true and when I shift click on a sim, I get a whole pile of cool stuff, but nothing about editing the Sim.
Any help appreciated

Be careful though, there are some things that will ruin your entire neighborhood just by editing a sim. The memory system in that game is easy to corrupt and the corruption will spread everywhere before you even notice. I would create a dummy/test hood and play around with those spawned object options to see which cheat does what thing before editing a sim in a neighborhood you care about.
Creating a test neighborhood is a good idea..will do that...ta

For general appearance, you change in the mirror.
For clothes, you have to go to the store and buy them off a rack.
The genetics in TS2 were way more complex than TS3 (I don't know about TS4), so there's no way to change a big nose or weird cheeks in game. For that type of thing, you'll have to find a mod. I'm afraid I'm not much help with finding one, hopefully someone else knows.
Yes. Using Sim surgery. There are a bunch of tutorials out there, it should be easy to find one that works for you.
There is also a career reward that allows you to change their appearance ("unlockcareerrewards" is the cheat to get the item). It looks like a plastic surgery machine.
I know the career reward DOESN'T change genetics, so if you are trying to get rid of a big nose, there's a good chance your children will inherit it anyway. Just like real life. I can't remember if Sim surgery changes genetics, I want to say no but I could be wrong, but I know there is a way to change genetics via simpe. I've never bothered though, I like my ugly sims to be ugly and have ugly kids
Just looked up Sim Surgery - yeh, a tool like that will be fine if need be.
Thanks for your help all

It's an extremely useful mod if you like tweaking your Sims
It looks like a small tree in a pot and can be found in Buy Mode - either Miscellaneous Items or Decorative, I believe.
Oh - the Sim Surgery career reward can be a bit 'temperamental' and you may end up not liking the result. Best to Save before you use it - seriously the results can be catastrophic
AH - SORRY TO SHOUT BUT THIS IMPORTANT - you have to have the Pets ep or above for the Sim Blender to work.
Simbology site is really helpful and that Sim blender looks great

It's a wonderful thing its acquiring so many new players now.
I agree. It's so nice to see brand new players coming to Sims 2. I love that it's still getting picked up all these years later.
It's an absolutely fabulous game. The detail is superb. Take this, for example, this is just one of many moments while a couple is sleeping:
There is such a large amount of detail in it. Tons of little animations and the interaction wheel is packed with interactions.
I am fortunate in that I have all the DLC and such a large range of mods to choose from.
Though, picking through and finding the essential mods/CC is quite difficult. There is literally 10s of 1000s to choose from - lol.

TS2 cc can be tricky business at first, everything has been done so many different ways or can be done in different ways in the game. Luckily all those mods are tried and true at this point, so it's all quality stuff.
Your picture is really cute I love the cuddling in the morning before getting out of bed. There was so much to that game it was amazing. Wish they would have kept a large portion of it and just added things for Sims 3 and 4...why change what wasn't broken? People loved Sims 2 they just wanted open neighborhoods hehe.
I really miss the personality points. Sloppy vs. Neat and Active vs. Lazy...Of course we have traits now in Sims 3 and 4 but I always loved how sloppy Sims would chow and scarf down their food while neat Sims took one bite at a time...Sims 3 and 4 everyone eats the same.
Having played some Sims 2 now, I think I would kill for an updated version of the UC. The detail still blows me away. Sims 4 was my first experience of the Sims and I loved it (and still do), but I really do see why 4 is accused of being lightweight in comparison to 2.
The image that I posted above, a couple of seconds after that...(I missed the shot, sadly)..he strokes her hair and then settles back down. Sims 4 animations lack these tiny details and they really do make a big difference.
I completely agree with you about the personality points. I feel like each sim you create is unique. Sims 4 would benefit from something like that to provide a little more subtlety - traits are pretty powerful.

hi, I'm new here and I just downloaded the sim blender, activated everything but I can't seem to find it.. no plant, mointain or smth. pls help. thank you
p.s.: what do I do once I found it?
Hi - well, it's been a long while since I played Sims 2 but let's see. It's in Buy Mode in the Miscellaneous section from what I can gather / remember. It's a potted ficus plant costing 10 simoleons.
When you say you've 'activated everything' do you mean you've enabled custom content?
Once you've found and bought it just place it somewhere handy on the lot. I can't recall how to use it but it's probably just a matter of clicking on it and selecting the option(s) you want. The best thing is it to put it in a household you're not too bothered about and have a little practice on an unwary Sim.
If things go awry you can always come out without saving, but definitely don't risk using it on any Sims that are precious to you until you know what you're up to
@RhiaSim There was no editincas cheat with Sims 2. I think you're confusing Sims 2 with Sims 3 or possibly even Sims 4.
