How to make a Sims 4 Pose Using Sims 4 Studio

Hi ansett747
I know at least the adult blender rig (not sure about child rig) has a bone midway between the wrist and the elbow called the forearm twist. If you want to rotate the wrist around the axis of the forearm, just like in the real life human elbow, it doesn't twist the bones in elbow or wrist, the forearm bones actually articulate to allow the wrist to turn relative to the elbow joint.

To successfully rotate the wrist in Sims 4 rig you need to rotate both the wrist and the forearm twist handles. For minor rotations you can get away with not messing with the forearm twist but for anything substantial you have to include that.

Hi Sugarowl, are you trying to attach images to the blend file, or are you trying to upend actual meshed objects, such as an exported chair from the game?

Please see the link in my signature for instructions on uploading your files so we can take a look.

You make kind of an animation of the different poses. F.i. start with a pose at 1 of the timeline. Make another point at 59 (locrot the position) and then make the 2nd pose right after the first on 60 of the timeline. Start the 3rd pose again after at 120 at the timeline etc. Then of course save and proceed as described in the tutorial of OrangeMittens.

Some remarks:
The position on the timeline is arbitrary. If you chose a lower number the positions changes more swiftly. If the intervals are too short, it will be difficult to take screenshots. 
The interval between the end of the first pose and the beginning of the 2nd can be longer than 1. In that case the movement will be more fluent. I think it's a bit trial and error and what is to you liking. 


Hope this makes sense.

EDIT:
Today I saw this tutorial by Katverse on Tumblr. As pictures/film can explain better what is happening than words, I suggest you also watch this tutorial. I think it explains everything very well.

The "here" link only opens this tutorial over and over, not the beginners tutorial.

Hi! What about extracting a current custom pose inside a .package file to Blender?. I was searching a lot in the web and I didnt find any reasonable guide to do that. Perhaps is impossible... I would like to see and play with existing custom animation to continue learning about making poses and animations in the game.
Thanks!!!!!!
