Searching and Sorting - Animations

[PeterMcPhallus]

Has anyone come up with a way to search for or sort animations by the individual animation tags (author, title/name, location, participants, position, etc.)? I have tens of thousands of animations, and trying to put together playlists based on vague recollections of who made it, what the sims were doing exactly, and the sex location, is nigh on impossible.

 

Animators tend to pack all (or many) of their animations into a single package file(s), and the innards of said file aren't really searchable in an intuitive way.  WW doesn't provide a method to search for an animation by keyword, and those context tags more often than not make no sense at all because different animators use them differently. 

 

I opened an animation package file in Sims4Studio, which turned out to be a complete waste of time because there's no way to search for keywords, and the clip files' names are some gobbledygook hash cypher rather than plain, searchable english.

 

Someone once made a spreadsheet listing all of the animations in existence (at the time) which could be searched and sorted exactly the way I want to do it, but it hasn't been updated for over four years. While I would prefer a way to perform said searches within the game, a database outside the game (such as the aforementioned outdated spreadsheet) would work just as well.

 

Any thoughts?
