Oh thank you, thank you, thank you! It's been bothering me for ages, It seems EAxis is getting lazier in every EP.

Awesome, thanks for this deserved detail which counts the most.

Question, does this go in our downloads folder or object catalog bin?

Good job Menaceman44! I hadn't noticed this EAxis oversight until you made this mod. I agree with VkToriA about EAxis getting worse with every EP. It's really getting to be a very bad habit. But thanks to people like you Menaceman44, our games are not totally EAxis's borked! Thank you for sharing your work!

Not having a sig IS my sig. Oh wait, this is a sig, isn't it? Nevermind...

EA sloppiness is just astounding.

Putting it in the Downloads folder is fine. Thats where I've placed them to get them working. It doesn't add a custom content star and the delete button isn't enabled either as these packages only replace the mesh, not the entire object.

Thanks! This a great fix for more EAxis sloppiness.
It was nice of you to credit the Ramaswami family for their work in testing this.

They call me The Seeker.
I've been searching low and high.

Thanks for fixing this! I hadn't noticed it yet, but I'm sure it would've bugged me once I did.

I hate the sloppiness of EAxis. I was very surprised when I saw that there were no animations! I didn't downloaded a piece of CC... I bought an EP, I want a little more quality please!! Thanks for fixing this stupid mistake.

You and many others as well should earn a "Thank You" of EA for fixing another bug they produced as professionals. It's really boring to see so many bugs and patches that follow each EP they release.
Thank you for your special work.

I can't believe someone outside of EA actually had to add animations to an EP crib. That's really sad.

Thanks for putting in the small amount of time and effort that EA didn't!

Do you think that these will ever be made to use recolors from the base game crib? This annoyed me as well. :/

I have a question: Since it is now animated, can toddlers escape like they do with the kinder koddler?

As far as I know toddlers should have always been able to escape from these cribs and I've not changed that. All this mod will do is make sure the railings actually move when the toddler does escape.

Hey Menaceman44,
can you please re-upload the "UPDATED 31-JAN-09" version of the hack. It seems that only the old original version is up, probably due to the server's crash.

Cheers. Should be updated now.
The sleigh crib file has a later date as I did some fiddling with the file after the original release but no changes have been made.

Thank you SO MUCH for doing this, I still play Sims 2 (In fact it's the first & only Sims game I've played so far...) and I'm happy someone fixed this. I noticed this annoying bug when I was taking storytelling pictures-EA should thank you for your awesomeness!
