@green_teamc I've got them dancing in all of my retail lots too! Staff, customers all dancing the cowpoke dance in the aisles. Starts out as quite entertaining but after a while...not so much!

I'm glad you mentioned this is happening in the game because I find it odd when I see my sims doing the cowpoke to the Jazz music speaker's. Yeah, I'm hoping they'll fix this but I don't mind them doing the dance autonomously to Ranch radio though.

I don't own this pack, and this is a little hilarious to read LOL

 

Sorry you're going through this though. Sounds like classic Sims 4 and also like it is annoying to experience.

same here... I designed a really nice rooftop night club before horse ranch and I thought I'll give it a try now with my sim, everyone is doing country dancing, except my own sim. But it looks a bit weird. Could be that some do it, but others should do the regular dancing. I don't like it very much... but I'll squint and pretend it looks like everyone is dancing normally? xD (edit: even ghosts do the country dance loool)

My thoughts on the 'cowboy dancing'

[ Edited ]
★ Guide

Don't get me wrong here, I am reasonably happy with the Horse Ranch expansion. However, there is one thing driving me nuts, and I'd like to hear the thoughts of other simmers who have the expansion. So...I think the new cowboy dance is pretty silly, but it's no worse than the original dancing, and can be pretty funny. It's the Sims after all. That being said however, I hate it that my sim goes to any club, and now almost all I see, no matter what music is playing, is the npc sims doing the darn cowboy dancing! That dancing, even for the Sims, does not always fit, IMO. I see it almost exclusively now, and to classical, electronica, jazz, blues, etc. Does anyone else see this? Feel the same? I wish it was only an option for music that fit the dance style. I hate seeing Izzy Fabulous, in all his glory, Wink dancing cowboy style to jazz! It's a scary sight, I tell ya, lol. 

 

Those of you who also have this expansion, please let me know your thoughts on this, or if you feel the same as I do. Thanks!!

@green_teamc I merged your post with the bug report. I assume you also have some different kind of music playing ?

yes it'll be music from a different station, alternative, or R&B for example

@Hawksdaughter     Hi!  I definitely agree!  This style of dancing needs to be toned down ... a lot!  Maybe the cowboy dancing could be tied to specific stations like Ranch and Americana?  One thing I was thinking is that it would be cool, if they're going to do this dance, it really should be a group / line dance that sims do together.  I'm sure it would still be rather cheesy but I think it would be less so if sims are doing the dance together ... maybe?  lol

@Hawksdaughter and @JonaO703 , I agree that the dancing should reflect the venue or the type of Music It shouldn't be always the same type of dance regardless of what station is playing or what type of venue our Sims are in!
