In my attempt to create more decent looking randomized sims, I went through the various body & facial presets (as well as eyebrows, beards and skintones) and picked those that, at least in my opinion, look decent on most sims, thus, hopefully, making for more decent looking randomized sims on average. In addition to the presets selection, I adjusted some parameters used for adding variation to the body presets. Kids and toddler presets are not included in this mod, and I also didn’t bother with occult specific presets.
Update as of August 1st 2022: Added the option to exclude body hair.
You can use this mod simultaneously with the mod "No Make-Up & No Accessories On Randomized Sims".

Some elements I focussed on:
One thing I was trying to do are stronger and more natural looking facial features. For example, I went for stronger jaws and wider noses, but then also deselected a lot of the eye presets that look somewhat crooked or cartoon-like to me. I also selected the more smooth looking chins, cheeks and foreheads presets.
Eyebrows and beards also make a huge difference, in my opinion. I only left a few neutral options for both. This, by the way, also makes it more likely for a randomized sim not to have a beard. (Per default, the game just picks randomly from all of the beard options, therefore, almost all randomized male sims show up with a beard.)
And yep, the skintones. I think the texture of many skintones looks either patchy or is otherwise poorly made (although I'm not sure if this is partly an issue with certain graphic cards/computers). I actually deselected a bunch of the lighter skintones from the neutral and the cold panel, because they look somewhat unnatural to me with the very grey or even purple undertones. As well as a few others. (As you can’t disallow skintones for randomization like you can with other body presets, I used a workaround by reassigning those skintones as vampire skintones, so they won’t show up randomly on normal sims anymore.)
Besides, a huge frustration factor for me has always been the poor posture on (for the most part) male sims. There are actually only two male body presets with a decent posture. I used them (as well as a third one) but adjusted both to some degree to look more like the average human body. I also only used three of the female body presets and adjusted one of them (the skinny curvy one) to be a bit heavier than the default. Edit for clarification: I didn’t change the underlying ‘physical part’ (the mesh) of the preset but only changed some variables in the preset settings for the default fit/heavy (slider) values that are used when applying the preset for the first time. So there shouldn't be any impact on preexisting sims.
Overall I'm quite happy with the result for female sims and, well, I did my best for the male sims under given circumstances :D At some point I needed to call it a day, so here it is:
SFS | MF
I provide the mod as a zip file (you need to unzip it with a free program like WinRAR or 7-Zip) containing the following parts as package files:
All of those parts also work standalone and in any combination! (The files do not rely on each other.)

Updates:
July 5th, 2025: Update for patch 1.116 (Fairies). Added fairy tags to the body presets and updated the tuning file with new references. Also provided the subfiles 1-5 on SFS, if you want to avoid downloading zip files.
March 3rd, 2025: Updated the Alien tag in Body Presets (other presets are not affected). The files referenced an outdated alien tag, preventing the body presets to show up in CAS for aliens. Also updated the alien tag in Body Hair, however, the tag there doesn't seem to make a difference. Excluded a beard from randomization that was added with the Life & Death pack.
July 23rd, 2023: Update for patch 1.99/Horse Ranch EP to account for new presets as well as a new tag that was introduced for the Native American archetype.
August 1st, 2022: Added the option to exclude body hair (5.) and updated the files 1. & 3. with items that were added to the game since the time when I created the mod.
Notes regarding the files:
The files with the deselected eyebrows, beards, body hair and skintones will count as cc and trigger the cc flag. Besides, the deselected eyebrows, beards and body hair will be also excluded for genetic randomization (other presets are not affected based on my testing). So I provide those files separately for easy removal (and in case you only wanna use some parts of the mod).
For more experienced users: You can also unmerge the body presets package file with S4S to receive the sub-files for body, cheeks, chins, eyes, headshape, jaws, mouths and noses as well as the tuning file, if you want to pick only certain parts of the mod here, as well, or adjust the files. (Half of this enterprise was actually looking up the items and organizing them into categories.) Please note, if you mess around with the files in S4S, don't save over the tuning file, it's a certain type of file that needs special handling when saving in S4S (I used a workaround so that the decimals would actually be saved correctly).
Clarifications, conflicts and TOU:
This mod only disallows certain items to be picked when a sim is randomized. All items are still "there" and can be picked manually in CAS.
I was asked how this mod affects genetics, so I'm adding this info here. I can only go by my observations as this part of the game code is not accessible to me but I didn't mess with anything specific to genetics. I'm assuming there must be some sort of mapping for inheritance as well as a random element to it. I didn't change anything about the inheritance part and nothing about how kids are randomized (in particular, I didn't exclude anything specifically for kids). So if there is a link/mapping between adult to kid presets or gen1 to gen2 presets, it shouldn't be affected by the mod. And based on my observations, presets that are excluded for randomization are still inherited. However, as mentioned in the notes above, I did notice that deselected eyebrows, beards and body hair seem to be excluded and are not inherited. Feel free to let me know if you notice anything different or peculiar though (so far, I'm not aware of any issues).
The "Body Presets Selection & Tuning" part (specifically the tuning part of it) will conflict with Menaceman44's Auto Shorter Teens mod. However, although the tuning file is one of the main parts of my mod, you can also exclude it if you would like to use the shorter teens mod at the same time.
The mod will also conflict with SimulForge by Crilender and probably any other mod overriding CAS presets.
Please, contact me in case you intend to use the mod or parts of the mod for other creations.
