This mod replaces the sim animations in Create-A-Sim. There are three versions available.

Version 1: Toddlers can stand

Version 1 leaves most animations unchanged but replaces the animations for toddlers with standing ones. It is very similar to my old Toddlers can stand in CAS mod, but is build using the current game version and the camera has been fixed.

Version 2: Body Shop

Version 2 removes all the stupid idle animations and all additional animations which are for example played when changing clothes, changing weight or adding traits. It replaces all animations for all ages with a simple standing pose and a neutral facial expression. Sims will not greet you, sims will not smile, sims will not breathe, sims will not blink, sims will not move at all. Similar to Body Shop for TS2.

Version 3: Body Shop + F6

Version 3 doesn't even use a basic standing pose. It displays all sims in their default pose ("bind pose") as you can see them in Milkshape and other modeling applications. Similar to Body Shop for TS2 after you hit F6.

Compatibility:
Choose only one!

Incompatible with any other Mod that changes the CAS animations or the CAS camera. For example my old Toddlers can stand in CAS mod and Zoom-In CaS Camera by Shimrod101.

If you use Awesomemod with this mod, please disable the NoSmilingInCAS option. If you use Version 2 or 3 they will not smile anyway, and it may cause toddlers to sit down randomly or sims playing the wrong animations.

Compatible with 1.22 to 1.24, there is a beta version for 1.26 attached. It breaks the animation of animals in Create-A-Sim/Ceate-A-Pet so only use if you don't have Pets installed.

The following resources are changed by this mod (all versions override the same items):
CASCamerasWS (INI, 0x0EA0B25EE03B44A6)
CASCameras (INI, 0xA443A899E326F860)
ingame\sims\soloanims\cas\animation\cas.jazz (JAZZ, 0xD8D5C1186BA97FDC)

It will conflict with other mods changing the same resources.

brett Test Subject Join Date: Dec 2008 Posts: 50 Thanks: 699 in 3 Posts	Does this stop the camera from automatically zooming in when you select certain items such as jewelry? That is the only reason I use Zoom-In CaS Camera by Shimrod101. I would, however, like to use your mod but only if it has the similar no-zoom-in effect. Thanks!

9b8ll	Yes I've been wondering if someone will make a mod like this. It's extremely annoying when My sim is smiling all the time in CAS!

CmarNYC	I'd been wishing for a way to make sims stand straight in CAS, and here it is. Thanks!!

I didn't changed anything apart from the toddler cameras so I guess it will still zoom in. On the other hand, I can't find anything in Shimrod101's mod that would stop the zooming in, so I'm kind of lost here.

Edit: I just selected some jewelry in game using my mod and it didn't zoomed automatically. Maybe you should just try it yourself?

Morphead	A very appealing mod. I hate when dressing up my Sims that they always want to fidget and make whatever odd facial expression. Thanks!

The camera movement is also altered such that the camera does not fly by itself to a new spot when zooming is stopped; the camera can now be stopped anywhere when the user stops zooming.

That was what I was talking about.

Ill go test it now and see the results.

As I understand it, this removes just the smoothness or slipperiness of the camera when zooming in. I can remove that too, but it is something different from automatically zooming onto jewelry.

MiniMimi	Ooh Standing toddlers! I've been hoping to see this mod coming back from the deads Erm, If I use the first version + AM, can I keep the AM No smile option on? I kinda like the idle animations but don't want the smile. Anyway, thank you for this mod!

You can try it but don't be surprised if you get glitchy animations. If it works for you, please report it, then I will remove the warning on the front page. But back in time with my old "Toddlers can stand in CAS" mod people (including me) had some issues with it so I added the warning.

I could, but I don't have much time at the moment and I don't want to manage hundreds of different versions. But I agree that it would be nice. Not sure if I do it.

Johnny5clowna	IDK why EA didn't do this to begin with I just want to see my sims in a static pose, it's so annoying for them to move/sit.. Thank you jonha for taking the time to make this mod, I'd love to make my own too, but I'm no good at coding xml..

	Coming Soon: LoZ Link, Fairy Tail - Aries and Virgo. Planned Happy, Persian, Meowth. Possibly Loke aka Leo the Lion.
