The Sims 4 introduces a brand new way for you to play with objects! Each object lets you resize them and scale them however you want.
Let’s try this trick with Bleep the Robot – a miniature plastic toy for Kids!
To resize an object, simply select an object you want and press ”Shift + ]”. You can make enlarged objects smaller by pressing ”Shift + [”.
As long as the object is not bigger than your Lot, you can make it as much big as you want it to be!
does this work with sims?
Nope xD
*sadface* well, I know what i’ll be doing over the next couple of weeks then…
Didn’t work for me
you have to press ] Shift
Same
Are you a fucking idiot
Hey thats rude
do you have an US keyboard or a EU/scandinavian?
I found that a few of my hot keys were slightly different due to me having a scandinavian keyboard. Then all I had to do was change the keyboard language on my computer to ‘stadard english’ and then figure it out where the needed keys were using word or pages :>
If you have an US one then maybe you have to look at your general/game settings??
I hope that was of some help ^^”
click å on scandinavian keyboard
What is wrong with you she/he did nothing to you!
It does not seem to work in my game.. Any suggestion on what I could do? :-((
ur using a keyboard with æøå Å is bigger and æ is smaler i think
THANK YOU
Thank You!!!
It doesent work for me with that either
Å worked for making things bigger, but Æ didn’t make things smaller, but the key next to the backspace worked for me in that regard.
Then making things smaller might work with the ´key should be above å to the right
tack tack
just do shift ] it should work to enlarge the shift[ to make smaller
Oh my god. Finally. Thank youuu
Interesting, maybe people are having problems because I don’t have to use the shift key? I just use [ or ] Hope this helps
Yessss! Thank u i’ve been looking for this answer for so long!
THANK YOU!!!!!
Though Å is smaller and ¨^ is bigger.
Press cntrl shift and c then type in TestingCheats true then press enter, then try again!
you have to turn testingcheats true first
Somehow it does not work in my game even with testingcheats true
what can I do?!?
thx for replys
Maybe click on shift and (» « )
Omg thanks! The only thing that worked for me! <3
hi, i am super late, but put your keyboard in american english, mine is french canadian and i could not make it work. the [ touch is the one right next to the p, the ] is next to the [, so 2 keys right from the p.
hope it helps someone.
:D Someone else, :D I just figured out myself before seeing your comments. xD Also, for those reading this you may not have to use the shift key. ;)
Thank youu :)
This really helped me, thank you so much
Oh mon doux merci!!!
I have a French Canadian keyboard too. Is it shift ^ and shift ç? Parce que je suis pas capable de le faire fonctionner.
Omg thank you lol
it’s shift + [ to make things bigger
and shift + – to make things smaller again. At least on mij pc this works.
THANK YOU!! This is how it works at my game as well, I just figured it out thanks to you!
How do you do it on mac?
I don’t know how to do it on mac, it doesn’t work for me… But trying it i’ve found another cheat! I don’t know do you have to write “testingcheats true” because playing I have already wrotten it.. But you can make SHIFT + ( for up and SHIFT + ) for down. Try it ! For me it worked. There was a sofa flying in the air :D.
Or maybe you need to write “bb.movingobjects” … I’ve written this too :> I’m sorry I don’t know which one you may need to write, but I found this “flying cheat” 5 minutes ago… And the “testingcheats true” and “bb.movingobjects” today in the morning :-)
Learn your English mate
If you want to resize things on mac use shift + command + }
i tried it and it didn’t work i am doing the right thing i think
I cannot get this to work. Sims4. Whenever I hit shift and + it zooms out or in…
Shift and the square brackets at the same time
so shift and { [ is smaller
Shift and ] } is larger
if you have an european keyboard try “SHIFT + »” to scale up and “SHIFT+?” to scale down
It dose it with “SHIFT” + “ß” for smaller and “SHIFT” + ‘ for me
(Germany)
Finally omg
I finally watched a video on this. I’m sure I’m late to answering questions, but I’ll put the answer out there anyway. When they say “Shift + [” or “Shift + ]” you aren’t pressing the “+” key! Just hit shift AND [ or ].
Ohhhhhhh, LMAO thanks!
This doesn’t work anymore
well, it does now…
not need to press the + they should’ve said or and so but for me, just the brack [] like this did it, watch kind of keyboard to you have.
MY MOUTH IS GAPING HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS I AM NOT A NOOOOB
I own an ESP keyboard and I don’t use shift, I press ‘ to scale down and ¿ to scale up, my game is v1.45.62.1020, hope it helps somebody.
This worked after I had lost all hope lol THANK YOU!!!!
It isn’t working for me either, and I’ve literally tried everything, anyone with new ideas?
Hi all, I have a Spanish keyboard and discover that objects become bigger if I press Ctrl + ! and then Ctrl + +. Haven’t discover yet how to make it smaller, but I can always delete the object and start again.
By ! I meant the “¿ ¡” key next to “Retroceso”.
OMG THANK YOU! i could only size down but didn’t know how to size up. Size down for me is
Shift }
I use a mac with spanish qwerty keyboard
I have a Mac and what works for me is
shift*] or/and shift*[
I have a laptop and when I hit Shift + all it does is zoom. When I played Sims 3 on desktop I remember it working. How can I make it work on my laptop?
It’s shift[ for smaller, shift] for larger. It’s the brackets you need, not the + sign
Thank you! <3
It works you have to add the [, ]s at the end of the + or –
This doesn’t work
For all confused It’s not shift +
it’s Shift plus ] or [
shift ] or shift [
Clicking + or – zooms in and out
For German users: it’s Shift + ü to decrease objects!
Size up= shift + )
Suze down= shift + [
For windows
Hope i helped
no need to use the shift key for me. ;)
It works
What about xbox one?
I have a Norwegian Mac keyboard, the small one, this has been a struggle for me foreverrrr! But I finally figured out I have to use shift + cmd + *, then it works!
Maybe someone is looking for this, so I’ll leave this here
I use a Swedish keyboard and shift + å makes it bigger and shift + ‘ makes it smaller
What about on console?
For me on my Norwegian keyboard it’s Å for smaller and ^ for larger.
It worked, thanks for this.
