Oki. I made these animations back in February, and was all ready to share them until I encountered an issue and gave up on the whole thing. I know no one likes the blah blah but please read the details below the cut so you know what you're downloading.
This is a regular animation that is used via Pose Player, not a Wicked Whims animation, so the Sim must be equipped with the glimmerstone accessory in CAS.
What This Pack Contains:
Three looping animations, all with silent and speaking versions. Two of them involve summoning/banishing the glimmerstone, and the other just rotates it. This one is glitch-free 😅
You will need:
- Pose Player
- Pose Alignment mod / Teleport Any Sim
- glimmerstone acc by @electricwhims (found in left wrist)
- any chair for the sitting upright animations, and a chair with arms for the lounging one! I made it with the SimplicitEase base game armchair and it may clip with others.

@ts4-poses @alwaysfreecc thank you ❤️
More details:
Basically! The 'magic trick' with the glimmerstone accessory is created by sending it away/calling it back very quickly, from a distance. I have this set to the smallest keyframe possible, but sometimes, the way the game renders means it will catch that keyframe and you might see the acc flicker briefly near the floor. After trial and error I got this to where it was a very rare occurrence, but then I tried filming without Gshade for the public release and oh no! Without Gshade almost imperceptibly slowing my laptop, the glitch happened a lot. So I decided it wasn't good enough to share.
...Then I realised that a lot of stuff is paywalled every day that isn't 100% and maybe I, a free creator, can just share the thing I worked really hard on. My video shows how they're supposed to look, I've obviously added transitions between the different video clips but I haven't edited the actual animations themselves! The glow in the last animation is created with Relight!
Ways To Limit The Glitch:
+ If you have a very powerful computer or if you don't use Gshade/Reshade then the glitch may happen anyway, but I've noticed that it's more likely to occur at the start of the animation, so maybe let it run once or twice first. All the animations are looping so hopefully you will get at least one loop where the game misses that keyframe.
+ The first animation shown in my video is the most likely to glitch, perhaps because it's much longer than the rest. You can see in my video that even though the acc appears as it should, there's a funny thing happening with shadows.
+ The glitch almost always appears near to the floor, so you may have to zoom in and just film a profile shot.
Just something I made for myself as I couldn't find any kids' animations that fit the vibe for a video I was making.
Pack contains:
a looping animation featuring two kids sitting on a sofa, with one kid pointing something out to the other who makes a joke about it
two static poses that you can use to make sure both animations start at the same time.
You will need:
- Pose Player
- Pose Alignment mod / Teleport Any Sim
- any 3-seater sofa (could also be used with a loveseat or bench, but you may need to TOOL/Pose Align the kids into position)

A different animation with the glimmerstone (which was made by lovely @electricwhims btw!), plus a full body view of the summoning/banishing animation (talking version) because I have fixed the problem I was having!
Basically, when he summoned the stone, it would *sometimes* briefly appear somewhere between him and the floor. I thought I was going insane because it's a looping animation and it didn't make sense that it would sometimes glitch and sometimes not.
Fortunately I'm married to a genius and he said that the game was rendering faster than it was recording, which is why sometimes I was lucky and sometimes it would catch that split second frame when the stone isn't in Sax's hand. I hid the acc further away and it hopefully won't mess up anymore.
I've got a (non magical) kids animation that I think I'll release first, since I want to try a few more glimmerstone ideas and turn this into a pack, but I'll share them here when I do.
Oh - I forgot to credit CC last time coz I was too excited lmao, but Sax’s jerkin is one of @xandezsims wonderful recolours, and his hair is by the amazing @sunivaa 😍
I had an open afternoon so I worked on an animated version of a posepack I made 5000 years ago (mild exaggeration). I gotta fix some things but I'll probably share it next week. Sax really does have a weird face the longer I stare at him. 🤔🤣
This was a super interesting commission from @southernsimmin, who asked for some poses of a Sim being possessed while their partner looks on, unable to intervene due to a sleep paralysis effect.
There are 6 poses for the possessed and 2 for their partner - they can be used together or solo. I also made a (very amateur!) animation for both because I thought it would be fun to try. The possessed Sim writhes dramatically, and the one with sleep paralysis... doesn't do much lmao, but watch out for some toe and finger twitches as they try to break free from their spell!
You can watch the animation (including SouthernSimming's video which they made for their story) in action here.
You will need:
- Pose Player
- Teleport Any Sim
- any double bed (place teleporters in the centre of the bed)

This is a very basic animation that I made for my story a few months ago, depicting a seated spellcaster performing a healing spell on a seated Sim who is speaking/shifting uncomfortably. Animation is not my forte and I only made it for myself, but a few people have asked me for it so I figured I'd share it publicly in case it's useful to anyone else. Please be kind, I'm learning!
To use, just place each teleporter where you want the Sim to sit. The Sims do not need to sit close together. The Sim performing the healing must be seated in any dining chair; I'm using the antique wheelchair by @lilis-palace, but it should work with most chairs. The Sim being healed must be seated on an ottoman; I'm using the basegame Captain Rodrigo De Pablo ottoman here, some others might clip!
You will need:
- Pose Player
- Teleport Any Sim
- any dining chair
- ottoman
- not required, but might be useful for your spellcaster: Igor's FX bracelet

Here's a silly little animation that I made for myself a couple of months ago. It depicts a Sim popping up from below the frame, tapping on the screen, and then speaking to the viewer before dropping out of sight again.
I wasn't sure about releasing this because it was made for this one specific angle, and I usually want my public stuff to work from any angle people choose. But I thought it might be fun to have, and besides.... it is free.99. 🤣
Details: because of this specific angle thing, there is absolutely no animation below the waist. The Sim literally just pops up stiff-legged so it will look dumb as hell from any other angle. The animation starts with a placeholder to let you get an idea of where the Sim will be, before lowering them slowly out of sight. The proper animation begins once they pop up again.
Pack contains one solo animation made with a femme frame rig, 25 seconds long.
You will need:
- Pose Player
- Teleport Any Sim
