How to Use the District Editor
-
World Name
Use Rename Worlds* from a Mailbox in-game to rename the world itself. To make the new name appear in your district descriptions and World Select Description, add those fields in this editor too.Editing the world description in-game only updates the text shown in Map View. To change the text shown when you hover over the world in World Select, edit the World Select Description here.
-
World Select Icon
Customize your World Select Icon by uploading your own design or mixing and matching in-game artwork with Background & Scenery. You can also upload a transparent overlay to add your own details.
Click Download Assets for a zip of the original extracted game images and edit them in your preferred image editor.
-
Choose District Icon
Choose a different map icon for each neighborhood or district, such as Foundry Cove in Willow Creek. The editor includes icons from every DLC pack, so you can use any of them, even if you don’t own the pack.Open Custom Icons to try a few designs I made, or upload your own. Select Make White to turn your chosen icon white and match EA’s default map icons.
Rename a district and the editor will automatically update its name in the description. You can also edit the description directly.
- Download Package
When you’re done editing, Download Package to your\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Modsfolder. Replace any older copies and keep only one version of this override installed at a time. You can rename it to anything you like. (Default name will bemidnitetech_RenameDistricts.package.)
If you already had the old version where you'd manually edited the strings with Sims4Studio, you can import that to the editor too.
