Did you use MC's Randomize Genetics? I've seen that happen when I used it on my sims mother

@ igazor... if I take an adult sim into CAS the sliders stick I took a fat sim in and the sliders had his high weight. The sliders don't go to the left. It seems it happens when my sim ages up. In a few sim days one of my teens will age up. I'll see what happens to the sliders then. I haven't changed or added any sliders, just using what came with the grow mod.

@ namaradus... I haven't used random genetics. I like my sims to inherit their genetics.

I like for them to inherit them as also but she was CAS made and was having a hard time getting rid of the pudding

Hmm. In the meantime then, maybe Consort will stop by and tell us why this might be happening.

OK, I'll wait and see what happens when they age up in 4 sim days. It's probably a setting I missed some where.

I have not activated the mod yet but have copied a few bits of info from the "Spoilers" on his mod page.
Not sure if this applies but here it is: One was "Using third party tools like MasterController to adjust values which are also changed by this mod will most likely be overwritten by the mod during the next update. If you wish to change (for example) weight,fitness, bust size of a teen, please turn off the mod for that Sim, do your changes, then switch the mod back on".

The other was Switching Height Slider Checklist ..

Bet his radar in CB where his mods are being discussed will kick in and he'll pop in almost anytime :)

Thanks brappl, I didn't turn the mod off when I made changes so maybe that's the problem. I'll wait and see what he says. :)

My two teens aged up but the sliders didn't go all to the left, they stayed pretty much were they were. So it must be just from kids to teens that's the problem.

I'll throw in my two cents for kicks.

I use both the Age and Grow mods and I love them so much. For the Grow mod, I use Cmar's height slider. I didn't like Bloom's height slider because it made the children's heads look egg-shaped. I find that with Cmar's slider the scaling looks much more natural. I don't have an issue with lag. This is mainly because of my gaming rig, but right now I don't have that many children/teens in my game. I currently have I think 112 sims in my town right and I have set my population to grow slowly.

I do not use height sliders for adult Sims, so I do not have the issue with tall Sims clipping through bed sheets. However, because I do have teens of different heights, it can look weird when two teens of different heights kiss. As someone else said, it's usually just one of them kissing the other's forehead or nose. I find if looks less wierd for picture-taking if I don't show where their lips are supposed to meet, like this:
