Check for duplicate ww files and make sure you don't have the zipped ww folder in mods along with the unzipped folder.

Bonjour ?, as-tu vérifier les Maj  de tes mods, CC ? Attention ! ne pas se fier au site de Candyman il es en date du 27 avril 2022 ,les notifications ne sont pas à jour mais on peu comme même cliquer sur le mod arrivant sur le site du modeur là nous pouvons voir s'il y a eu une Maj ( ex: WW notifier 167g hors sur sur le site de Turbo Driver WW est en version 169b, pareil pour Basemental Drugs).( Ne pas oublier de supprimer dans le dossier Sims 4 les dossiers:  cache, cachestr, localthumcache et les fichiers: Avatarcache, UserData.lock si tu les as.

 

Une fois cela fait, fait comme même un essais juste avec WW.

Si toujours apparition de ton problème fais une réparation du jeu via Origin.

Vérifies également les Maj de tes pilotes.

Très bonne journée.

Everytime I try and “join in on sims” it pops up “couldn’t prepare animations!” “With the provided criteria of involved sims and picked location/object, no fitting sex animations could be found” “Message code:11 universal_sex_animations_picker” how do I fix this?

Sometimes it caused by Wicked gender rules settings that don't allow group Sex.

Or maybe you don't have any group sex animations downloaded.

 

Wicked Settings > Sex Settings > Cheats > Always Accept (Enable 1 green bar)

 

Wicked Settings > Sex Settings > Sex Interaction Settings > Respect Gender Preference: OFF

 

Wicked Settings > Sex Settings > Autonomy Settings

Autonomy Awareness: Player Sims: ON, Joining Sex: ON, Relationship Awareness: OFF, (Cheating)
Pregnancy Awareness: OFF, Sex Location Memory: ON, Sex Animation Memory: ON
Block around Children: (Your Choice)
***Joining Sex Gender Compliance: OFF ***
Joining Sex Relationship Compliance: OFF (ON=less joining in sex if in romantic relationships)

I had the same problem and I deleted the local thumb cache but package, if you have an extreme Al hard drive that you play sims on you should delete out of those mod files as well pretty much what ever you download your sims mods on you should delete the thumbcache

Hi. I installed the wickedwhims mod. I also uploaded the animations, but the sex option does not appear, does anyone know why?

[Andrenalin05]

There is a file named wickedwhimsinfolog.log, what should I do with this file?

[Andrenalin05]

There is no problem with any of the steps, all properly.

WickedWhimsInfoLog.log

I set it the same way. I click on bed but the option does not appear. When I used wickedwhims a year ago, when I clicked on the character, romance and sex options appeared. But this time, there is no such option in romance, I guess it has changed.

[Andrenalin05]

I did the same but it didn't work. I think it would be better if I gave up. I gave you trouble too. I'm sorry

[Andrenalin05]

I'm not hopeful but maybe it will work

I completely uninstall sims 4. I also delete the records in the documents and set up a clean Sims 4. I hope it works.

Thank you very much for your help.

[Andrenalin05]

I'm giving up. For some unknown reason WW is not working in my game. Still thanks for your help

Make sure to not have basemental drugs downloaded if you want wickedwhims to work I had the exact same problem and was smart enough to figure out what the problem is those 2 don’t go well together so good luck choosing lol

can anybody help.... for a reason when i download it i get the nudity in it but i cant do any animation at all... i dont know what it is i have tried so many stuff, ive deleted it and downloaded it several times, i follow the exact same steps as the people in the tutorial but the animations are just not working. I think the problem may be because ive had it in the past working perfectly fine but somehow all my files got deleted, had to redownload ww agains and ever since the animations are not working at all, id appreciate any kind of help<3

Have you downloaded additional animations to use with the mod?

Are the animations installed correctly and in the right place?

Sorry to necro this thread, but my others have gotten no response.

I have a similar issue with animations. M/M, M/F, and F/F work fine but when asking to join, the animation doesn't play, time stops even though it shows not paused, and the sims disappear. I have reinstalled and tried just a single animation file, all with the same results. Always accept is on and gender preference is off. Any help?

mine is too!

i go to "ask to join" a watching sim to the animation for a threesome, and they gather and disappear then time freezes even though its not paused, even though i have plenty of animations available, it just wont start
