You can use SimPE to permanently lock a Sim to a specified height, also.
Open SimPE, click on the Neighborhood Browser button.
(At the top of the screen, towards the center-right. It's a little icon that looks like people coming out of a box.)
Select the neighborhood that the Sim you want to edit is in.
Let it load, it may take a couple minutes.
Select the Sim Browser button.
(Directly to the left of the Neighborhood Browser button.)
Select the Sim you want to edit from the list.
Click the 'Age Data' link under the resource tree, then on the Age Data file itself in the right hand window.
On the bottom of the screen will be a whole bunch of lines of text.
Scroll to the bottom. Second from the bottom should be a line marked: stretch (dtSingle) = 1
Click it.
On the bottom right side of the window the Name field should now say: stretch, the Type field should say: dtSingle and the Value should say: 1.
Change the value to whatever you determined the correct ratio to be for your sims height.
Click Commit & save your work under the File/Save menu.
Also, assuming that the default height for an Adult, YA, or Elder Sim at stretchskeleton 1 is 6ft tall, here are some values for other heights:
0.76=4ft6
0.83=5ft
0.92=5ft6
1.08=6ft6
1.16=7ft
1.25=7ft6
Consider, also, that the Teen default height is 0.94.
Teens are on the same height scale as the Adults,YAs&Elders, just...shorter.
Child Sims are on their own height scale, which also starts at stretchskeleton 1. We're going to assume that for Children, the default stretchskeleon 1 is 4ft tall. Once again, values for other heights:
0.82=3ft
0.90=3ft6
1.08=4ft6
1.16=5ft
I do not bother adjusting heights of Toddlers or babies.
If you have the Pets EP, you can also adjust the heights of the Pet Sims. Stretchskeleton 1 is once again, the default size for all animals. Therefore, within every category of animal, we can assume:
Very Large=1.05
Large= 1.03
Small=0.97
Very Small=0.95
You cannot change the sizes of birds, wombats, etc. Just cats&dogs.
