To edit a sim that is a townie, and random character, or even someone in your household if there is not a wardrobe nearby, you'll do these quick actions:

  • Hit Ctl+Shft+C simultaneously.
  • Type testingcheatstrue into the textbox in the top left.
  • If you want to freely edit (change body type, face, etc.), type cas.fulleditmode in the command box and hit Enter.
  • Hold down shift and click on the sim you want to edit.
  • Select Edit in CAS.
  • Edit to your liking and hit the check in the bottom right when finished.
