lf larger pregnant belly mod(s)

[bunsenburner181]

Hi everyone. Pretty simple ask, I'm looking for mods to increase the size of pregnant sims bellies :P. I have a pretty big thing for pregnancy, and a very big belly is part of that. And the regular size in the game just doesn't cut it for me! And neither does that pregnancy overhaul mod...I'm not really looking for *hyper* stuff, moreso just like... exagerrated if that makes sense. I've seen stuff like this elsewhere online. Thank you in advance!

I custom-hacked the LMS mod to nudge up the bounds, and combined with hokusai's sliders you can get some heavy wombs. Depending on your preferences, this reworked fat mesh also boosts volume.

Ooooh?! How do you hack the LMS mod?

As always, back up your files in case something goes wrong.

1. Open the .package in S4PE, in my case MuchBiggerThanEAsBelly.
2. Pregnancy size values are in the second XML (0xB61...), so right-click the entry and Export To File and it'll save an external copy you can edit.* (It's best to keep the default filename, as that auto-parses the correct Type details during import.)
3. Open that with your preferred text editor, then Ctrl-F to find keys "15298" (first trimester), "15301" (second), and "15302" (third). Within each block there's a tag "apply_new_value" with a decimal between 0 and 1 that defines the belly size at that stage. The mod's defaults are 0.5/0.75/0.95, I upped mine to 0.5/0.85/1. I think 1 is the upper cap and it won't render sizes beyond that. You may note "In Labor" is its own stage and is set to 1.
4. Save the file, then right-click the entry in S4PE and choose Import From File, select your edited XML, leave all the options as they appear and click OK. The original entry will appear crossed out with your replacement below it.
5. Save the .package in S4PE and you're good to go!

It's a small change against the base game sliders, but compounded with other mods it adds that bit more.

 

* I thought it could be edited within S4PE itself but I may need to update my version.

I have observed that LittleMsSam's "MuchBiggerThanEA'sBelly" mod doesn't seem to make the belly that much bigger. It looks like maybe 20% at most. I use it nevertheless, because like the OP, I like my pregnant women to appear very pregnant.

 

Having said that, I have done a bit of research into how the game renders pregnancy, and to a limited extent you can control the shape (elliptical bump vs round bump) based on the body shape you give the sim in their default 'non-pregnant' state. But if you're like me and looking for the full "beach ball belly", I have not found anything that will give you that.

 

If you find (or create) something, please let us know.
