In the vanilla version of The Sims 4, facial sliders have a "hard limit." You can only drag a jaw so wide or make eyes so big before the game stops you. While the vanilla range allows for pleasant-looking Sims, it severely limits the ability to create extreme character types or faces with strong ethnic or structural features.
The Expanded Facial Sliders Mod removes those constraints. It significantly widens the range of almost every facial slider available in the game.

Q: Does this mod affect my FPS or load times? A: Negligibly. It is a text-based tuning mod, not a texture replacement. Your CAS loading screen may take 2-3 seconds longer because the game is loading more bone data. In the vanilla version of The Sims 4,
Q: Can I use this with WickedWhims or MCCC? A: Yes. This mod edits CAS sliders. WickedWhims edits animations/exposure. MCCC edits demographics. They occupy different parts of the game's memory and work perfectly together.
Q: The sliders look scary extreme. Will every Sim look like a mutant? A: No. The beauty of the mod is range. You can still use only the vanilla 50% range for normal Sims. The extra 200% is only there if you want it. Q: Does this mod affect my FPS or load times
Q: My Sim’s face exploded. How do I reset? A: Right-click the slider thumb (or the CAS icon for that feature) to reset to zero. If that fails, delete the Sim and start over.
Q: Is there a version for console? A: No. Console versions of The Sims 4 do not support external mods or CC.
At its core, this mod alters the boundaries of the existing facial sliders in CAS. In the unmodded game, every slider (cheekbones, jaw width, nose bridge, etc.) has a minimum and maximum limit. These limits are put in place by the developers to ensure character models don’t "break" or look grotesque.
The Expanded Facial Sliders mod removes or significantly extends these hard limits. It allows players to push the proportions of a Sim’s face further than the game originally intended, opening the door to a massive variety of new facial structures.
