Hi guys, I tried to play animations from expansion packs (ambitions/late night) but, even if I've got those EPs installed, the mod doesn't play like it doesn't find the animation.

For me it only plays the base game animations.
Could you help me please?

is there any kinda faster way to play the animations without having to type the whole thing in like that?

weird, when your pose player came out, everyone sprung on making custom poses, but i have not seen any custom animations.

CMO:

Have you considered redoing some of the interactions as immediate interactions?
All but the play and play looped could be done that way. My sims have lives to
live, and can't hang out all day waiting for me to remember animation names.
Please and thank you. :lovestruc

It works in Generations.

If it's one you saved with a game, you may have to buy another one. But it does work with Generations, of that I'm sure.

Hmm no I started a fresh game... Oh well, thanks anyway! I uninstalled everything today since my LN should arrive tomorrow, I'll try again after that!

Oh! Does it work with children too? I never tried that...

Yes, but you have to use the animations prefixed with 'c'. Unless you want the child to look like this:

Ah thank you!
I also discovered what the issue was. For some reason, it will only play the base game animations for me, and none from my EPs.

I have no idea why it's doing that...

Same for me, only the base game animations... Is it possible to make the others animations work when you've got the EP installed?

I have the generation EP, whenever i enter in a animation in the 'Clip A Name' box (for example "a2o_trap_invis_reaction2fire_x" ) the box keeps popping back up blank and won't enter/animate!

The box pops up again to allow you to add more animations to the list. You have to click the player and click "Play" for it to play.

ReMs: No limit, it plays animations to the end.

bootz: those questions were answered in the description.


I downloaded this into my mods/packages folder and it shows up in my inventory and seems to work exactly how you said it should, except whenever i try to add EA animation codes (ex. a_vampires_sleep_idle_bed) and it doesn't do anything. Do you know whats wrong?

Isn't there an easier way to get them to do the animation? Without having to read all those long lists and remembering the codes? Like the pose-player where you just pick a pose? All I really wanna do, is to make my movie making a bit easier. All though I think this is an amazing invention, something easy for a technophobe like me would be great! Hope i'm not sounding too ungrateful.
