The Sims 4 career outfit cheat is `sims.modify_career_outfit_in_cas`. Select the Sim who has the job, open the cheat console (`Ctrl` + `Shift` + `C` on PC, `Cmd` + `Shift` + `C` on Mac), type it and press Enter. Create a Sim opens on the work outfit. It does not need `testingcheats true` and needs no mods or packs.

## Change a work outfit step by step

- Load the household and click the Sim with the job, so they are the active Sim.
- Open the cheat console. On console the box opens with all four shoulder buttons: `L1` + `L2` + `R1` + `R2` on PlayStation, `LB` + `LT` + `RB` + `RT` on Xbox.
- Type `sims.modify_career_outfit_in_cas` and press Enter.
- Create a Sim opens on the career outfit. Change the clothes, hair or accessories.
- Confirm with the check mark to go back to live mode.

The Sim needs a job first. If they don't have one yet, add it with `testingcheats true` and `careers.add_career` plus the career's name. The [career list](/career-list) has the exact name for every EA career.

## What the cheat does in the game code

The command lives in the game's own script file `server_commands/cas_commands` (checked in version 1.129.39 on November 11, 2026). Reading it explains most of the questions players ask:

| Fact from the code | What it means for you |
| --- | --- |
| Registered as a Live command | Works with `testingcheats` off, like `motherlode` |
| Flagged to need a save that allows cheats | It won't run in a save where cheats are locked |
| Takes the active Sim, or an optional Sim ID | Click the right Sim before typing it |
| Prints `No valid target specified.` when it finds no Sim | That message means no Sim was selected, not that the cheat is broken |
| Sends the game a request to open Create a Sim in its career mode | Create a Sim opens on the work outfit, not on everyday wear |

It is base game code, so no pack is needed.

## Other Create a Sim cheats from the same file

| Cheat | What it opens |
| --- | --- |
| `sims.modify_in_cas` | Create a Sim for the active Sim, all outfits, from live mode |
| `sims.modify_outfit_in_cas` | Create a Sim on one outfit, chosen by outfit category and number |
| `sims.modify_small_business_outfit_in_cas` | The outfit a Sim wears for their small business |
| `cas.fulleditmode` | Type it before opening Create a Sim to unlock name, age, traits and aspiration |

`sims.modify_in_cas` and the career outfit cheat are listed as checked in the game on the [full Sims 4 cheat list](https://lifesim.com/games/sims-4/cheats).

## Career outfit cheat not working?

- **"No valid target specified."** Click your Sim's portrait so they are active, then type it again.
- **Unknown command.** Check the spelling: underscores, and `cas` at the end. Copy it from this page.
- **The old uniform came back.** Many careers hand out a new uniform at each level, so a promotion can replace your edit. Type the cheat again after the promotion.
- **Nothing happens at all.** The command is blocked in saves that lock cheats. Try it in another save.
- **Mods installed?** Right after a game update, an outdated mod can break the interface. Test once with mods turned off in Game Options.

Want work that feels more like a real job, not just new clothes? See the [active career mods](/active-careers).

## FAQ

### Does sims.modify_career_outfit_in_cas need testingcheats?

No. The game registers it as a Live command, the kind that runs with `testingcheats` off.

### Can I change a work outfit on PS5 or Xbox?

Open the cheat box with the four shoulder buttons and type the same command with the on-screen keyboard. The console versions ask you to confirm before cheats turn on, and cheats turn off trophies and achievements.

### Why did my Sim's work outfit change back?

A promotion can bring the uniform of the new career level. Use the cheat again after each promotion.

### Is there a mod for career outfits?

You don't need one. The cheat is part of the base game and does the job without anything in your Mods folder.
