Which CAS traits use which animations

First I will be listing all CAS traits with the name of their animation from Sims4 Studio. Some traits share the same animation, therefore you can't have animations for all of them.

You can find the Google spreadsheet here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eYwZzo_tBA-vhxFXz4ANd0n075Ls_cEbfiQlaM0QNtU/edit?usp=sharing

How to organize your CAS poses

I wrote down the name of the CAS traits in front to make sure i don't use the same ones multiple times and kept the original name of the CC.

It's also nice to write down which traits you still can use for CAS poses (I crossed the traits out as I don't own the packs yet):

How to change which CAS trait poses use

Most pose creators offer 1 or 2 CAS traits for their CAS poses, but if you already have poses installed for those, you can easily change that to any other CAS trait.

Requirements:

S4 Studio

The CAS pose you want

The trait you want to use

1. Download and install S4 Studio 2. Download the poses you want 3. Open your downloaded poses in S4 Studio. Now you have to decide which rig to export: If it's for adult, its "Adult Female" or "Adult Male" (Gender doesn't matter), "Child" if it's a pose for children, etc. I will select "Adult Female".

4. Export it wherever you want on your PC. Now you have a .blend file with the poses. 5. In S4 Studio, select "Override" under "Animation" in the main menu.

6. Select the animation name according to the spreadsheet of which trait you want to replace. I will just use the trait "Active" for adults, so I select "a_CAS_trait_active_x" 7. Now S4 Studio makes you save the .package file already, so just do that. I will add "Active_" as a prefix for my package (see "How to organize your CAS poses" above). 8. You will now see the same screen as when you exported the .blend file. Select the same rig from the drop-down again (for me it's "Adult Female" again) 9. Import the .blend file you have from step 4. 10. Save the .package file 11. Done!
