Functional Mannequins | (OLD)

UPDATE 14/08/2025 | Please download the updated file and delete the old version!

Important Note: A few people have reported that their sims have turned into mannequins when aging up. I did everything I could think to prevent the cas part from being selected by randomization.

But there is a possiblity this bug is not caused by my mod. The reason I say this is because 1. It has never happened in my game. And 2. This bug has happened to other people before my mod was ever created. There are multiple reddit posts about this issue with sims aging up into mannequins. If the issue persists, it might be caused by another conflict.

— Original Post Below ——

I've wanted to create new custom mannequins for so long! As far as I'm aware, this is the only mod of its kind, so I had to figure out some tricky things on my own. Mannequins are weird! Did you know that they're basically sims frozen in place? This is probably why they caused my game to crash so much while I was testing. But luckily, they work beautifully now. I'm really happy and proud I was able to make this! I can't wait to see you using them in your retail builds!

OVERVIEW

There are two versions of this mod. Choose one depending on your preference / pack ownership.

Get To Work | Includes original mannequin features + my custom interactions. Note that all mannequins on the lot share outfits, which may or may not be your preference.

Base Game | A simplified mannequin that doesn't require any dlc packs. The mannequin outfits aren't shared like the GTW version, so you create outfits for each mannequin individually. If you do own GTW, this version also includes the original poses. It doesn't have all the extra interactions like buying, trying on, restocking etc. If you like simple objects with not too many interactions, try this version even if you own Get To Work.

2 Styles: The mannequins have two styles. The first includes feet, the other hides them.

4 New Custom Poses: Neutral, Relaxed, Cool, and Seated

New 'View Outfit' Interaction: Includes a new custom 'inspired' buff. Style Influencers may also get an additional 'confident' buff. Increases Style Influencer and Fashion Photographer job performance. For creative/materialistic sims, it can be 'admired' and increase a tiny bit of fun.

Mannequin Stand: This (optional) object has a unique footprint and slots that allow you to easily move and display the mannequin.

WARNING! Your game will probably crash if you use the T.O.O.L Mod on a mannequin.

Luckily, you can place it on a mannequin stand and manipulate the mannequin stand instead.

OTHER NOTES:

• This is not an override and won't impact the original Get To Work mannequins.

• The game limits mannequins to 10 per lot. This mod bypasses that. BUT the limit exists for a reason. Since mannequins are basically sims, they impact performance more than regular objects. The more mannequins you have on a lot, the less actual sims will spawn. At a certain point, employees and customers won't show up.
  Compared to GTW mannequins, my custom tuning has a smaller impact on the spawn rate. But if you use a lot of mannequins, you may need to increase the sim spawn limit using MCCC.

• The mannequins start off 'naked' for realism, but when removing items in cas, they'll revert to default underwear like regular sims.

• You can find the objects in build/buy by searching 'mannequin'.

• I'll probably make a male version eventually.

• Please tag me on Tumblr or Tik Tok if you use my mannequins in your build. I seriously love commercial lots, I want to see them all!

This mod will be in early access to my lovely patrons first. I appreciate this community so much for giving me the space to explore these ideas.

Enjoy ♡
