Updated: 23rd Oct 2024 at 6:06 AM - Mod update
STILL WORKS AS OF PATCH 1.110.265.1030 ON 22ND OCTOBER 2024 (Life and Death Patch) AND POSSIBLY FOR FUTURE UPDATES AS WELL SINCE IT'S A SIMPLE MOD, BUT THERE'S A SLIGHT VISUAL BUG WITH THE ICONS IF YOU USE DIRECTX11 TO LAUNCH THE GAME
AS OF DECEMBER 2022 THIS MOD’S INTERACTIONS HAS NOW BEEN MOVED UNDER THE “ACTIONS” CATEGORY
CHANGELOG
- 2.0: The interaction is now moved under the “Actions...” menu. Added options to change swimstyles & walk animations, added many new walkstyles options especially from newer packs, walkstyles are now categorized, chosen walkstyles/swimstyles/walk animations will now appear under the trait panel
- 1.0: Initial release of the mod.
- 1.1: You can now change non-active sim's walk style.
- 1.2: Changed the walk style to have higher priority. Now, occult sims like ghost and grim reaper can have their walk style replaced with this mod.
- 1.3: The mod doesn't depend on XML Injector anymore since it has its own script mod now.
INTRODUCTION
Are you looking for a different walk style for your sim that you normally can't use before? Are you a videomaker or storyteller wanting your sim to use specific walk styles that you can't access normally? Or do you want your sim to just run everywhere they go, thereby increasing time efficiency? If those are the case, then this mod is for you!
MOD FEATURES
This mod adds in a new interaction for your sim called "Change Walk Style" under the “Actions” menu. With this, you can have your sim use almost all types of walk styles available in the game. They consist of not only normal walk styles that you usually pick from Create-A-Sim (peppy, tough, swagger, etc.), but also emotional (angry walk, sad walk), situational (celebrity walk, panic run, "has to pee" walk), and special walk styles (vampire sneak, ghost float, servo walk). This interaction is available for all ages except for toddlers (for now).
Once your sim's walkstyle is set, it'll stay permanently until you reset it even if you exit the lot or the game. To reset your current walk style back to your sim's original walkstyle, use the "Reset Walk Style" interaction.
Some walk styles require you to have certain packs. If you do not have the pack but use it anyway, nothing will happen. There are tool tips on walk styles that need certain packs so you'll be informed in-game.
Besides adults, children also have this interaction, but they don't have as many walk style options as adults.
NEW FEATURES IN V2.0 UPDATE
- Besides walkstyles, this mod now allows you to select swimstyles under the "Change Swimstyles" menu! This includes emotional swimstyles, occult swimstyles (mermaid), and swimstyles from Island Living expansion pack.
- This mod also allows you to play certain repeating animations while walking under the "Play Animation on Walkstyle" menu. This is different from walkstyle in which these animations will play along with the walkstyles you’ve chosen so you can have different combinations. (e.g., use phone, sway hands from bugs, talk, look at surroundings, etc.)
- Added "Reset All" interaction, which removes all walkstyle, swimstyle, and repeating animation traits your sim has.
- Added more walkstyles from newer packs (Star Wars, Snowy Escape, Dream Home Decorator, Cottage Living, Werewolves, & High School Years)
- Additionally, if your sim uses the any of the Star Wars walkstyle with a blaster, an interaction to shoot the blaster will also appear under the mod menu
- Your chosen walkstyle, swimstyle, and walk animation will now appear under your trait panel.
- All walkstyles have now been categorized in their own respective categories
- I also added “Glitchy Walkstyle” under its own category, which includes walkstyles that aren’t supposed to be used on normal gameplay (such as T-Pose sliding, chicken/llama/cow walkstyle on sims, children walk animation on adults), but I included it just for fun.
- Added 7 different speed variations on regular walk and run walkstyles.
- Added a black cloud effect on reaper float walkstyle. I also added two flavours for it (with and without scythe)

OFFICIAL MOD SHOWCASE (by me!)
Version 1 Mod Showcase
CURRENT ISSUE
- Due to higher walkstyle priority ranking, you cannot change Grim Reaper’s walkstyle
- Even if you’ve chosen other certain repeating animation while walking, your sim may occasionally still use their phone when walking. This is the issue from the game’s programming and unless I override the existing code that controls this behavior overall, I cannot stop it from playing altogether.
COMPATIBILITY
This mod should be compatible with any mod since it's a pure scripting mod.
AVAILABLE TRANSLATIONS
None so far. Feel free to let me know if you’re interested!
