We shared a clip above of the In Progress animation featuring the toddler. HaeJu: Yes! There are Play With Rocking Chair animations for both children and toddlers that will be really fun to animate. Once we have settled on the perfect pose then we can start making the unique rocking chair animations, including the Knitting while rocking animation.Ĭonor: Is there a specific animation for the Rocking Chair that you’re excited about? Figuring out the perfect pose so that rocking looks good and works with all of the existing animations we want to use requires a great deal of iteration and testing to get it looking just right. We make multiple animations for each interaction to give the visuals some variance – we call these animation loops – and some of the existing interactions, like socializing with other Sims while sitting, have many different loops with various hand movements and different angles for the Sim’s head, among other things. This may sound simple, but it actually is not. Since we are using the existing animations for these interactions, I have to create the perfect sitting pose that will allow us to blend these animations seamlessly with the movement of the Rocking Chair. Sims on the Rocking Chair are able to perform existing interactions, like socializing with other Sims or reading a book, while the chair is in motion. HaeJu: The rocking chair is a challenging object, we have never made anything quite like it before on The Sims 4. What Elders take away from the whole experience is up to their personality traits, but hopefully something pleasant! If you’re playing as an Elder while they’re Reminiscing, you’ll be able to see glimpses into their mind swirl around them, similar to toddler’s when they play make-believe with toys. Elders will also be able to Reminisce on rocking chairs, gaining a small amount of fun as they relax and explore their mind palace. While sitting in a rocking chair, Elder Sims gain increased friendly relationship gains with other Sims. Try building a “Knitting Room” with a rocking chair and a stereo playing Focus/Metal music to fully immerse your Sim in knitting knirvana.Īs I mentioned in an earlier blog post, Elders will have some unique gameplay with rocking chairs. Sims will also gain a bonus to their Knitting Skill while on the rocking chair, so make sure you take advantage of that. Sitting in a rocking chair is quite relaxing for Sims, so naturally uncomfortable, sad, or angry buffs will diminish quicker. So, let’s talk about some of the new gameplay surrounding rocking chairs, because that’s where our rocking chairs in The Sims 4 get really interesting.
