The phrase refers to the process of acquiring modifications or custom content for the Sims 4 game, specifically designed to alter the appearance of pre-existing, non-player characters within the game’s simulated environments. As an example, an individual might seek downloadable content that provides new hairstyles, clothing, or facial features, which are then applied to the game’s autonomously generated residents. The term encompasses both the act of finding these resources and the files themselves.
These modifications offer players a degree of control over the aesthetic presentation of the game world, allowing them to reshape the look of the simulated population to better align with their personal preferences or creative vision. This can lead to a more immersive and personalized gameplay experience. Historically, the desire to customize and personalize the Sims experience has driven a large modding community, generating substantial resources for visual alteration.
