You are looking at the joints (blue circles) scaled at the default, which is way too big for Sims 2 or Sims 3.

Go to preferences and change the joint size from 1.0 to 0.012.

I was trying to do this, but when I tried to open fullbuild0 it gave me this message...

The first thing you should do is copy the fullbuild0.package file to somewhere else from the program directory. You don't want to edit the originals, which is what you are trying to do.

From the look of that video it looks like you have an old version of Milkshape...maybe that's the issue. If you got the most current version that might help. All those errors you're clicking through right at the start of loading the model shouldn't be there.

Wes, I'm not sure what's up with the link you provided to Milkshape in your OP...maybe it's just down temporarily?...in any case it didn't take me to the Milkshape site...just a small detail but I thought I'd mention it. <sorry>

Wes discusses how to put the animations into the game in this thread that you are posting in. The first post where he talks about that is post #24. Start there and if you're still having trouble figuring it out keep reading through the thread.

Also read through the entire thread that I linked to above.

At this forum much of the important information shared is in the thread below the initial post not only in the first post of the thread.

If you want her to not be all white then right click on the view box you've got pictured there and pick textured instead of smooth-shaded. If you want the yellow and blue to go away go to the joints tab and unclick "show skeleton".

Also, you may be interested in the new work Wes and Rothn have done with animating. You can get the download here:
