# How to Delete Pieces of a Mesh in Sims 4 'Sims Mods Tutorial'

In The Sims 3 and later versions, including the popular life simulation game series' latest installment - Sims 4, meshes play an essential role in defining the appearance of your Sim characters. A mesh is essentially a three-dimensional model that includes all parts of your Sim's body such as head, hands, feet etc., which can be customized using various tools provided within-game or third-party mods.

If you're looking to remove certain elements from these meshes without completely replacing them entirely then follow along with this step-by-step guide on how to delete pieces of a mesh in Sims 4:
