You don't have to join your Sim when they go to work, but you'll need to go a few times if you want them to make any progress in their career. As a detective, your Sim will need to solve cases and bust bad guys and you can't expect a Sim's AI to be able to handle that alone.

Updated August 29, 2023 by Gabrielle Castania: Since there's no "right" order in which to buy the game's DLC, The Sims 4 stays popular regardless of how old it may be. Players are still seeking info about The Sims 4 Detective career, so we've updated our guide to keep everything in line with our current standards. Good luck, detective!

Follow Your Sim To Work Or Send Them Alone

Sims 4 Detective Photographing Criminal

One of the interactive careers introduced in Get to Work, the Detective career is The Sims 4's take on a police career, allowing you to watch your Sim work their way up the ranks to reach the top brass.

When you join your Sim and travel along to the police station, you'll realize that the game really streamlines the world of being a detective. You will get a menu in the top-left of your screen with various tasks that you must complete in order to raise your job performance.

These tasks range from simply socializing with your colleagues to undertaking actual detective work. As you get promoted up the ladder, you'll get to do more things such as arresting suspects and solving cases.

Remember that you can hover your mouse over any task to receive hints and tips about how to complete it.

  • Make sure your workday is varied! You'll have tasks that involve desk work, processing criminals, and listening to the rants of civilians - try to get as many tasks done in one area at once to save time.
  • Going on Patrol might seem useful as it raises performance with little effort, but it's time-consuming. Only do this when it's a promotion requirement .
  • When you have tasks that require socialization, such as " Get Witness Report ," the correct option should appear immediately when clicking on a target.
  • If you manage to be Focused while at work, you become more efficient at your job. To enable this, try placing items with Focusing auras around your office.

If you find yourself running out of time to complete all of your allotted tasks, you can extend the workday by clicking the button next to the timer. This button can also be used to leave work early if you're particularly expedient with your daily tasks.

Sims 4 Detective Crime Scene

In order to go to a Crime Scene, click on the Crime Map in the office. Once you're at the Crime Scene, you will be presented with a new list of objectives that will let you gain clues for your current case and progress your performance bar.

  • Click the ground to search for clues . These might be suspicious items or pieces of graffiti.
  • When you have found clues, you should take samples and take photographs of them to get as much evidence as possible.
  • You will also have to question witnesses . Look around for them, as they can sometimes be hard to find. You will know if a Sim is a potential witness if you get the option to interview them on your first click.

Once you have completed all of the tasks at the Crime Scene, you can click on your Sim and return to the office. There, you should file the Crime Scene Evidence on your computer.

The Sims 4: How To Fill Out Reports

If you're in the business career, then your Sim will need to know how to fill out reports. Here's a quick step-by-step guide.

Sims 4 Detective Arrest

Solving a case is the end result after lots of police work that involves searching crime scenes, pondering clues on the Crime Board, and finally Issuing an APB . This can only be done when you have enough evidence collected and will take you to a location where the suspect can be found.

When out and about, you need to use your phone's notebook feature to keep track of all of your clues . These will be things like the suspect's hair color and gender - these will lead you to your suspect.

Talk to people to find out things about them, and when you think you have your target identified, arrest them .

Once arrested and taken to the station, you need to interrogate your suspect . You can take a few different methods (Good Cop, Bad Cop, etc.) but rely on evidence, and you should make them crack eventually - assuming you caught the right Sim of course!

If you can extract a confession from a guilty Sim, you'll have solved your first case . Congratulations!

Detective Career in Sims 4: From a Cop on a Patrol to Solving Crime Cases

Get ready for some brainstorming and roll up your sleeves. It’s time to collect evidence, interview witnesses, and solve detective cases! The Detective Career has 10 levels, is one of the three active careers featured in the Sims 4: Get to Work , and quite an interactive one. This career is not to be confused with the  Secret Agent  career, which is an entirely different career track. This is a completely different experience!

Screenshot 2023 10 23 162119

Unlike the majority of careers in Sims 4, Detective Career in Sims 4: Learn How to Fight Crime Like a Real Cop doesn’t have branches and doesn’t require learning special skills. Instead, Sims have to show up to work, go to crime scenes, interrogate suspects, and put in the effort in solving cases to get ahead.

If your Sim chooses to join law enforcement, you can expect many cool rewards, a lot of thinking, integration, analysis, and long working hours. As a player, you will follow them every step of their way as they complete promotion tasks. Now, let’s find out what detective career is about!

Getting ready for work

Once your Sim gets the job, their detective career success will be influenced by their mood, and their prompt actions when on the field. Being focused is everything, so make sure you get them as focused as possible before work. Telescope and microscope prints, as well as mathematical diagrams , will definitely help you when you’re trying to raise your Sim’s focus. Make them once, save them, hang them in their office, and view them every time before work to get the ultimate mood boost.

Alternatively, you can make them practice yoga, research gardening, drink pitch black tea, and play chess , to make them more alert and increase their chances of successfully completing daily career tasks.

Sims 4 Detective Career

Your Sim will start going to crime scenes early in their detective career, but they will need a helping hand from more experienced cops and won’t be able to solve cases alone until level 4. They will also need to go on patrol , and their task will be to intervene with civilians. To go on your first patrol, just use the PC at your workplace and click Go on Patrol. This will send them to a neighborhood where they will have to talk to random townies and issue citations . They’ll mostly have to deal with troublesome Sims and fights, so get ready to deal with some volatile Sims.

However, the majority of their career tasks will revolve around solving cases . They’ll be required to go to their first crime scene right away, and by level 3 your Sim must be ready to successfully interrogate a suspect. From level 4 to 9, you will already be heavily focused on solving cases.

To advance in the detective career, you will have a few small career objectives every workday. These boost job performance, but not all of them will have an impact on the case, unless they are connected to it. For instance, getting fingerprints or analyzing evidence will be helpful both for solving the case your Sim is working on and for boosting their performance. Some other tasks, such as exercising at the gym, won’t help you make progress on your case. They will all boost career performance and bring you one step closer to promotion, it’s just more efficient to focus on objectives that do both. Now, let’s see how to solve crimes, step by step.

1. Arriving at a crime scene

Getting a case assignment is the first step in fighting crime in the detective career, so make sure you get your assignment on your computer. You will see the ”Travel to Crime Scene” option when you click on the detective board, and this will take your Sim to a random crime scene lot. Once you get there, pay attention to your environment and examine the crime scene thoroughly to get evidence. Detective career is all about connecting the dots, so your task will be to collect four types of evidence: fingerprints, witness reports, evidence samples and evidence pictures .

2. collecting evidence at the crime scene

Let’s start collecting evidence! To dust for fingerprints click on objects on the crime scene, to take witness reports , question a witness Sim on the crime scene, and to collect evidence samples , and take evidence pictures look for random objects found on the ground at the crime scene. Look for odd, old-looking pieces of clothing and dusty objects.

When taking reports, make sure you question everyone near the crime scene if you have the option to take reports shown when you click on them. You will have a list of objectives you need to meet when at the crime scene, but if you spot something strange make sure you investigate it. You never know when extra information can come in handy in the future! All collected evidence will be useful when solving detective career cases.

3. Analyzing evidence to get cues

Sims 4 Detective Career

Once all evidence is collected, you’ll need to analyze it to collect cues. Fingerprints and evidence samples need to be processed using the chemical analyzer. Crime scene photos and witness reports, on the other hand, have to go through a scanning and be processed on the PC. You will need to input the data collected during the investigation, and you can do so by choosing the Cross Reference Police Database on the PC.

The detective cork board is everything for a real detective. Once all evidence is analyzed, it’s important to pin cues to the detective board . This will help your Sim gain insight and learn valuable information about the suspect, such as their personality traits, gender, what they wear, or how they look. If you find new cues, always return to the board to pin them. If you use Deduce Clues interaction on the detective career board, you may get more valuable information about the suspect.

4. arresting the suspect

If your Sim has worked hard, collected a bunch of evidence and now has enough cues to work with you will see an ”Issue APB’ ‘ option, which will take you to your suspect. As they are working to advance in the detective career, your Sim will have to ”match the dots” and connect cues with the suspect. You can always access notes about the current case you’re working on and the suspect on the phone under Detective Career.

For instance, if your suspect has black hair, wears a long sleeve, and has an Ambitious trait, you’ll have to make sure they are the right person by observing them and discovering their traits. If you don’t have enough evidence, your Sim can arrest the wrong person, so make sure to be detailed with your work.

5. the interrogation

The suspect is arrested, and now they will be taken to the police station where you’ll need to interrogate them in the interrogation room. This works like in movies: your Sim will be sitting face to face with the suspect, asking them questions and trying to get information from them. You will have a few detective career interactions available.

You can take on the role of the good cop or the bad cop who’s unafraid to send shivers down the suspect’s spine. For instance, you can ask them for stressful riddles, intimidate them, ask for bribes, or dangle handcuffs in front of them. Good cops will be more polite and sly when asking about the victim, can offer a candy bar, and make false promises in their attempt to get the suspect to start talking. Either way, you’ll get the information needed.

You will see a conversation bar in the upper middle of your screen where you can track interrogation progress. Once it’s full, you’ll get the option to get the confession from the suspect and close the case.

Inzoi throws yet another hat in project rene's arena, zenless zone zero leaks free agent for version 1.2.

The Sims 4 is a life simulation game where players are given the opportunity to create virtual characters and build their dream world. Not only does the game let players create Sims but they also have the freedom to customize their personalities and choose their careers . In fact, The Sims 4 is renowned for its extensive character customization options.

CAS is the mode where players can modify the appearance of their Sims, edit their family relationships, change their traits , and do much more. Read the following guide to learn how to enter the Create-a-Sim (CAS) mode in The Sims 4.

RELATED: The Sims 4:How to Change Sexual Orientation

How to Access the CAS Mode in The Sims 4

It goes without saying that The Sims 4 won’t be as enjoyable if Sims had only a handful of hairstyles and outfits to choose from. The CAS mode, on the other hand, enables gamers to change the traits or features of their Sims whenever they want to. This way, Simmers can customize the personality of a Sim however they want. However, the CAS mode is only accessible through cheats.

Enabling Cheats

cas mode cheat the sims 4

It is important to enable cheats before using them. The key combos for activating cheats vary depending on the platform gamers are using.

Press Ctrl + Shift + C on the keyboard and the cheat box will pop up. Next, players can type "testingcheats true" in the box and apply their desired cheats. On a Mac, press Command+Shift+C and type "testingcheats true" in the box. In order to bring up the cheat box on consoles, hit all four triggers on the controller simultaneously.

Once cheats are activated in The Sims 4, players are free to use the cheat to enter the CAS mode. All that players need to do is type "cas.fulleditmode" and choose the Sim they want to edit while holding the Shift key. Xbox requires players to press the A and B buttons, while PlayStation players will need to press the O and X keys on the controller simultaneously.

This will open a menu where players will see many options, including ‘Modify in CAS.’ Clicking on this option will take players to the CAS mode for that Sim. Once there, Simmers can make changes to their Sim’s appearance , clothing, traits, aspirations, and family relationships. After making the required changes, players can click the ‘tick’ icon to save the changes and return to the live mode.

The Sims 4 is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.

The Sims 4 Discover University: Law Career Guide

11 13 19 1 51 56 PM

Presented by EA Game Changers

The Law Career is just one of three brand new careers that come with The Sims 4 Discover University. The career itself comes with two branches.

As with any career, your Sim can join the Engineer Career simply by sitting down at a laptop/computer, using their cell phone or by the job tab on the user interface. You should keep in mind that if your Sim has completed a degree that relates to the chosen career that your Sim is joining, they have the option to either start at the lowest level or at a higher point in the career. You will also notice that your Sim will receive a higher hourly rate and a signing bonus (which is only awarded once per Sim every seven days) and also more vacation days.

Once you have joined the career you will be greeted with a pop up asking you if you wish to start the first Work From Home Assignment/Work Assignment/Daily Task. You can either start it right away or hold off and do it at a time that suits your Sim better. Just make sure it is completed as soon as possible every time.

Note:  If you are not sure what your Sims work from home assignment is or what you need to do you, can head to the  Career  panel and there will be a section for  Work From Home Assignments/Work Assignment.  Hover over the required task and it will let you know how to complete it.

When it is time for your first shift you will be presented with another small pop up which asks you if you want your Sim to  Go To Work ,  Work from Home  or  Take Paid Time Off (PTO) . The choice is up to you. If you choose to Go To Work or Work From Home you will still be working towards your Sims next promotion. If you choose to Take PTO your Sim can go about their day however they please. If you choose to Work From Home make sure you check the  Career Panel  to see what tasks your Sim needs to complete during the day.

how to get case assignment sims 4

My sims always seem to sleep in the same bed unless their in the red when I tell them to go to bed then they typically nab the closest bed and forget everything else. Then I typically find I have to direct that sim to their bed once again and then they always automatically go back to their bed again.
