Noticed T Pose for the first time after years of never seeing it

[James3157]

I noticed T Pose for the first time at with one of my high school students for the first time visiting Copperdale High School. I usually do not see this taking place at Copperdale, but very recently I noticed it. Usually I have to cheat for completing T Pose, but not this time.

Worth mentioning only one high school student was T posing. It was Pierce Delgato T Posing.

T-posing is the result of an error in the animation sequence. It disrupts the game or mod's ability to continue to the next move, and there's no longer a call to the animation program available, so it defaults the Sim to the zero position.

I've noticed this happening occasionally in my game recently as well. WW will flag it as an error in the animation sequence and ask you if you want to stop the sequence or continue. However, I have noticed it will sometimes happen during base game vanilla animations, but very rarely, and they are only briefly happening before getting back to working correctly again. Not sure what's causing it, but for me, it's infrequent enough not to be a major problem.

In James cases is not a game error. The devs added the T-Pose challenge to High School Years. Student will perform this animation in high school and your other teen can join. I always have a student in my high school which perform this T-pose-challenge. I am surprised you need to cheat this aspiration. Generally, this EP works better as I thought in vanilla.

This was only the first time I have ever noticed T Pose at Copperdale High School even with mods (although I did remove High School Years mods because I seemed to be having issues with them). I have joined my teens at Copperdale many times, but usually do not notice T Posing taking place at Copperdale until recently which I thought was strange and unusual. Like I said earlier (contrary to videos I watch on youtube that might involve a few teens T Posing) only one sim named Pierce Delgato was T Posing.

I noticed a T Pose for a second time during detention. It is strange that this is the first time I have noticed T Posing at Copperdale High School instead of earlier. I had a different Steam account from 2022 where I first started playing High School Years not long after it came out. Every time I join teens at Copperdale I have never noticed T Posing until now where I would have to cheat every time with that part for admired icon aspiration.

It seems to be random. When my first Sim kid started High School, the T pose challenge was there from the start. Now that her sister is attending High School, it hasn't popped up even once :)

I notice it quite often, but it is always only one single lonely teen doing it.

Which is why I had my first teen join in, that lone teen looked kinda sad 😁

It is worth mentioning that I think that some specific mods (especially High School Years mods) might cause teens to not T Pose at Copperdale High School even if they are supposed to. It is was only when I was not using any High School Years mods that I noticed even once any T Pose at Copperdale, but they would not always T Pose even after I removed the High School Years mods until recently. I honestly do not know what determines when teens decide to T pose and how many of them T Pose. I have seen youtube videos of at least a few sims T Posing, but similar to Garce I only see one teen sim doing any T Posing. Not just once, but twice where only one sim would T Pose each time. I might have responded earlier, but my internet was down due to a weather related issue for a few days and only recently got it back.
