This is the same medical science that deemed children don't need to wear eyeglasses. In my case I really should have been in a back brace when much younger, but it either wasn't detected soon enough or didn't seem severe enough at the time to warrant treatment. Not sure I put any stock in the gender focus thing reported either.
Not that it magically goes away by itself when someone turns 21. What the article meant, although it didn't phrase it very clearly, is that the condition is often first detected between those ages. Change walking style to Elder.įantasy Eyes - Body Shop.
(Is this the one you use?)Ĭhange Walking Style - Mod. Although, for I could try a cloudy or white replacement eye-texture for Glaucoma for an elder or maybe find dark glasses, and a white cane for Visual Impairment with any age. Oh, I don't think those specific Blind or Incontinent traits sound very good, for my tastes. So translating this into the Sims: I would use the sliders on a Child and Teenager, probably a Girl, shift the spine towards the right side, and then stop using the sliders once he or she ages up to Adult. Also Dextroscoliosis (curving to the right side of the body) is more common, because "the body instinctively avoids the heart". It also says it's most common "between the ages of 10 & 20", and more common in girls than boys. Just from reading from the Wikipedia article, it's "a condition where somebody's spine has a sideways curve". I hate to be ignorant, but I don't really know anything about Scoliosis, or anyone that's had it. People who are truly either often find better ways to manage than this, and it also kind of demonstrates why EA would never have implemented such things in the game. He has Blind sims walking into walls and other objects on a regular basis and Incontinent ones randomly wet themselves (including in public). Unfortunately both are really weak implementations and, sorry to say, downright insulting. Still a work in progress, really.ĪwesomeMod includes Blind and Incontinent among its custom core loaded traits.
I've also used locomotion mods to emulate the elder cane walk on younger sims, but with the accessory cane they then appear as though they are holding it the wrong hand. I also have some younger sims (teens, adults) walk with a cane but unfortunately it's an accessory and the sims look ridiculous waving it about when they are sitting or lying down so I only use it on certain outfits. Technically it's not the spine that the sliders curve, but the visual effect isn't all that far off. This isn't exactly a disability unless it's a severe case, but I use and like OneEuroMutt's sliders to help emulate scoliosis. I would need to use MoveObjects a lot for this one.Ĭanes - Generations came with canes, which is a nice touch. Wheelchairl - I haven't tried yet but I think it's just a chair. (Except baby wheelchair/stroller functions.) I think it only works for females, only wearing 1 outfit, so kindof limited.Īll Access - Some wheelchairs & walkers, but they seem just be chairs. Appears functional (except for using invisible limbs to open things or walk).
Can only set 1 ear though.Īmputee Sliders Sliders to create amputees.
What I really want is a functional wheelchair, but I'm open to other mod suggestions too. I kindof wanted to do something in-game to reflect this.
I know EAxis created Sims to be these wonderful, average creatures that kindof live in a Rockwell painting, but IRL there are people with disabilities and handicaps. I'm wondering if there are any mods out there to recreate Sims with disabilities? Like not just objects, but functional objects or clothing/accessories.
