More CAS Traits Mod + Long-Lived Traits + Add Traits Menu

✅ Check this mod's status for current patch on Spreadsheet

⏩ This tuning mod allows your Sims to have more than 3 Personality (CAS) traits without script or changes to UI.

  • ✔ You need to add the additional traits in gameplay mode with AddTraitsMenu downloadable below/ All Traits In Reward Store / Weerbesu's UI Cheats Extension.

  • ✔ When using any of the Options 01~28, NPC sims generated also get the number of traits this mod set.

  • ✔ If you prefer NPC Sims not getting generated with extra traits, you may choose Option 29 or 30.

  • 👉 For more traits to be picked, aka custom traits, check this list of trait packs made by me.

  • 👌 Base-Game Compatible

  • ⚠ Remember to put only ONE option of MoreTraitsMod in your mod folder !!!

CozyChorner · September 9, 2026

Hi, I have seen the comments about this mod needing to be updated. The same thing happened to me; I made a new sim, added traits, then went to world selection and bought a house. When I buy the house, it brings me back to the world selection menu and doesn't let me go back with my current household, the game just asks me to make a new family. Is there any way around this?

did'nt play since 2025; even the pancake more traits cas ? it seems to make a black screen on the menu. thepancake1-MoreTraitsInADDON_Neurodiversity thepancake1-MoreTraitsInCAS-ChingyuOptionsCompatible-v2d-1.121 thepancake1-MoreTraitsInCAS-v2d-1.121 chingyu_MoreTraitsMod_Option_08 are the files i have to remove to resolve the black screen menu. i'm actually trying to test them but i think i need to remove them definitely it was a big game changer hope there will be an update EDIT: OKAY ! it's chingyu_MoreTraitsMod_Option_08 and thepancake1-MoreTraitsInADDON_Neurodiversity that cause the black screen.

Hi, since the last free update, I kept on being sent back to the residential worlds choice page. I removed and add back mods one at a time, and it was the addtraits menu mod that seems to be causing it. Please help, because I cannot go back to very few traits for my sims. Thank you so much!

Nicole Bridgewater · April 13, 2023

I'm having the same issue as IndigoGirl. I use the mod outside of cas. The traits just replace in the 3rd slot and doesn't add to the trait menu. Is there something I'm possibly missing or another mod conflicting with it?

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · July 20, 2023

This is correct. Adding more than 3 traits in gameplay mode requires using the "Add Traits" interaction.

M
Miokya San · April 9, 2023

hey this mod is conflicting with the pink mode ui

Y
Yams · February 3, 2023

Is this compatible with the latest update? Im getting UI errors and I've removed other UI mods to test

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · February 3, 2023

This is compatible with the latest patch. More CAS Traits Mod does not edit UI and won't cause UI errors. The cause of UI errors could be any UI mods, e.g. More Traits In CAS (thepancake1 and MizoreYukii), CC wrench replacement, More Columns in CAS, Color sliders, etc. The patch breaks all these mods and they require updates. Many of them have already been updated by their creators so you need to re-download them! 😄

I love these traits but this post is so confusing, still not sure which zip to download that is basegame compatible. please help.

A
Ashton · December 8, 2022

I'm a long-time sub of chingyu, what this post means is that you Download AddTraitsMenu.zip and extract both the package and script to your mods folder. Download MoreTraitsMod_Options and choose one option from there to extract to your mods folder. So for example if you wanted your sims to have up to 30 traits you'd scroll to the bottom of the .zip where it says "chingyu_MoreTraitsMod_Option_30.package" and you'd extract that one. You'd only download DisallowHumanTraitsForPets.zip if you also add on the options below the 30 traits package that say "30 traits plus 5 or plus 4 pet traits" otherwise you don't download it. The long-lived traits are also optional. I hope that helps!! basically, you only choose one option from the More Options zip file to put in your game, that's the simple version. It's worth it because I can't play without chingyu's complete trait packs, I've tried to after the update and the game is sooooo bland lmao

Perfect Cyan · October 28, 2022

Which one of your mods auto assigns traits? I'm trying to stop NPCs from being assigned conflicting reward traits, but each time I move them out of my mod folder, reward traits keep getting assigned.

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · October 31, 2022

None of my mods auto-assign reward traits. You may try seeing if that's another creator's mod, such as WW, ERO, Lumpinou's, etc. Any CAS (Personality) traits, including the in-game ones and my custom traits, would be auto-assigned to newly generated NPCs by the game, which is a base game feature. If you don't like any custom personality traits being assigned to Sims, you need to install the reward version of custom traits. All my reward traits would not get auto-assigned to NPCs.

Hey, quick question, the 'chingyu common traits menu' is coming up on my LE has this been updated? Also is this the same as the 'addtraitsmenu' ? x

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · August 16, 2022

chingyu_CommonTraitsMenu is from 100 Base Game Traits V2. It is a tool to cheat off buffs from the custom traits pack. It has been updated for some previous patches. You may check if you have the latest version of it. https://www.patreon.com/posts/54477138

ambrosia-ghostie · June 22, 2022

For some reason my cats and dogs seem to be acquiring human traits. However, I'm not sure if they're your traits or another creators. I added the contents of the "Disallow Human Traits For Pets" into my mods. Is there something I could be doing wrong? At the moment I'm manually removing the traits, but I'd love a fix if there is one. Thank you for your work!

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · June 28, 2022

It requires the other creators to add a Human species requirement in their custom traits. All my custom traits have that requirement so that they won't show up in the list for cats and dogs. "Disallow Human Traits For Pets" is only for editing the in-game personality traits. To use other creators' custom traits that don't have this specific requirement, you may blacklist those traits in MCCC settings for pets, which is the simplest way to prevent it happens again. 😉

Miokya San · June 7, 2022

True AI · June 2, 2022

Can more than one trait be added at the same time or do they have to be added individually?

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · June 5, 2022

In Add/Remove traits cheat of Add Traits Menu, you can only single pick a trait. You can multi-pick traits in Change Personality Traits Cheat. UI Cheats Extension by weerbesu can multi-pick traits and I highly recommend it!

S
Serena Foster · October 22, 2021

It's not showing the 6 traits anymore no matter what I do. It's just stuck at 5 traits I think cause of the UI maybe. My sims still have 6 traits but it seems the UI is no longer compatible.

Thanks again for the response. I changed to Option 9 and am no longer experiencing the problem. Community lots load fine. But there is a LOOOOOONG delay in loading households when you start up the game. Has nothing to do with mods. I experienced the same delay when I had mod folder removed.

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · May 1, 2021

I saw some people saying they experience simulation lag after patch. So I'm not sure if that's why you face this problem.🤔If that's the case, I wish EA can fix it soon. I haven't changed anything to Option 10 in the latest update. I only added five additional options.

N
Nanci Gulya · April 30, 2021

I am having a problem. When I put the "Add traits in regular menu" and the Option 10 for more traits, community lots will not load. Please help.

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · April 30, 2021

Option 10 (25 traits) requires a better performing PC. It may leads to long loading time or game crashes after playing for a long time if you have a normal PC like me. One of my friend has a custom option I made up to 30 Traits and it works well in her Gaming PC. But I would say use that one only if you are sure your computer can handle it. You reminded me that I need to add a clear warning about this. I would suggest you to try another option. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi, I love this mod thanks for the great work, I'm having an issue where I get an empty trait in cas , no name no description no nothing, the animation seems to be paranoid from strangerville, but I don't have strangerVille. The issue comes from the Add traits in regular menu package. I hope the feedback is useful. :D

Maskra · December 18, 2020

Hi Vicky, thank you so much for this mod. Can’t live without it. :) I was wondering, do you know if it is possible to just see the traits one has in game in the trait picker? Now I have to scroll through a lot of stuff and have to remember which one are traits and which are not. Thanks in advance for reading.

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · December 18, 2020

I tried to make one for in-game traits but the issue I have been facing is MCCC keeps sending error. Deaderpool used to include a picker menu like what you said in MCCC cheats but they addressed this issue and seems like no way to prevent the error so MCCC now only provide with adding through entering command cheats. I think this is a general issue with traits picker so I don't know if I can solve it. :(

J
J. · November 20, 2020

Hello! I downloaded only the "more traits mod options nov.zip" and "add traits in regular menu.package" files. I can't add extra traits in CAS. Did I just misunderstand the mod? (I can add traits by clicking on the sim, but not in CAS)

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · November 22, 2020

Yes you can add more Personality traits by clicking on the sim, but not in CAS.

E
Erin · November 17, 2020

For whatever reason I can't add traits in the action menu. I have your 100 traits mod as well, and I have the disallow human traits and the Nov plus 5 pet traits. The pet traits do show up in the rewards. Am I missing a file?

W
Wolff7676 · November 15, 2020

well dang

W
Wolff7676 · November 15, 2020

nope that wasnt it, not sure why it didnt show up before either way it is now. Going to test it with the rest of my mods and see what happens. either way I found a work around, when I had the mod in before each sim had 4 traits, when I took it out they still kept the traits. I could do it that way just long enough to give them that extra trait what do you think?

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · November 15, 2020

I noticed that the new traits/sim info system doesn't remove any old traits on the self info/other sims info immediately despite the trait is already removed from the Sim. If you play the game a bit longer and your Sim changed their outfits etc. the info would be corrected.

W
Wolff7676 · November 15, 2020

only extra traits I use would be from like WW and such as far as just reg downloaded traits no, oh basemental has a ADHD one but I don't use any of the traits on either one.

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · November 15, 2020

Any cc traits installed could be causing LE when using the new “open sim profile” and it doesn’t matter if you use the traits on Sims. Even one broken CC trait is in the Mod folder would break the UI and cause LE. 😅 This is not because of More Traits Mod because More Traits Mod is not a trait 😀 If you test the game with only this mod install, you won’t see any LE from it. I would suggest to update any mods that include traits and remove all mods that hasn’t been confirmed compatible by modders or updated 😉

Do I still need to download these traits if I have your recent BETA pack or are they already included?

V
Vicky Sims (chingyu1023) · September 12, 2020

If you mean "More CAS Traits Mod", it is another mod and is not trait. This mod allows you to have more trait slots for every Sims or Pets so that you can add many traits on your Sims if you want. If you mean the Survivor and Lasting "Long-Lived Traits", no, they are not included in the BETA pack. They are separated as they increase Sims' life span instead of changing emotions/relationships.
