I asked this on Mod The Sims, but thought I should ask here as well.

Sometimes when I use Pose Player with sims of the same age group, I pose all the sims, let's call them Sim A, B and C and I've made poses specifically for each one of the sims, when I want to change the pose for one of the sims, I cancel the pose and the game hangs for about a minute. Then it cancels and I can type in the new pose, let's say "A2" and click ok, and then POOF all three sims do the same "A2" pose. Annoyed, I cancel the pose for Sim B, the game hangs for a while before I can type that sim's pose again, "A1", and I click ok, and POOF now they all do the A1 pose.

Has anyone had the same problem, and know what causes it and maybe have a solution? Is it because all the poses were merged into a single .package? Or has the save become corrupt?

Edit: Yes, I type in the prefix for the type of sim and the name of the pose, for example c_A2, so it's not that.

Hi, I’ve never had this happen. My only suggestion would be to try the pose player add on. Or if you’re already using it try taking it out? If it’s not a corrupt save maybe that will work.

And also Cororon I was over at the forum today for the first time in awhile and enjoyed your posts in the ‘you know you’re a sims 3 addict’ thread.

Hello! No, I don't have the Pose Player add-on. I didn't feel I had use for it and perhaps it would just introduce new risks for unwanted things happening.

I'm thinking now that maybe there's a conflict between the sims and their poses, so the game sees them as being the same and different at the same time, causing the game to hang for a while and then *poof* it gives all the sims the same pose. I don't know anything about coding, so I have no idea how to look into it.

Oh yeah, the Sims 3 addicts thread! I don't like that I have to prioritise celebrating Christmas with "RL" family over celebrating it with my sim family. And notice that I put "RL" in quotation marks. The boundary between Sims and "RL" is blurred for an addict!

Ah well, I hope you can figure it out

Haha so true!

What about resetting these Sims, lot with Mastercontroller?
And the pose player?

If you merged the poses before with no issue, I don't think it's the problem. But if you merged recently, maybe test with them unmerged.

Yes, and I also reset everything with MasterController. Good idea, might try putting the files in folders instead of merging them.
