Re: My thoughts on the 'cowboy dancing'

It's being tracked as a bug in some cases. I thought at first it was by design, I've got retail lots full of staff and customers dancing through solid walls and ignoring everything and everyone...perhaps that should have been my first clue.

The worst affected is my art shop in Strangerville but I suppose it's better than them wandering around possessed by plant spores, they certainly look do happier! It doesn't look as bad at my outdoor mall where they're all dancing around outside. I'm not totally against big public displays of dancing (massive Glee fan) but the dancing with a wall through their body looks a little unsettling.

Re: [HR] Sims doing country dancing even when different style of music is playin

@Lazzial I do very much agree! Even my Sim only gets the 'dance the Rumbasim' option to one of the latin music stations! And no npc sims dance it at all outside of Selvadorada. The dance needs to be tied to venue and music type.

@crinrict Glad to see that this issue wasn't intentional, now we can hope for it to be fixed. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

You have to admit, it’s kind of weird to see people at the Festival of Light doing the cowpoke dance to Japanese folk music….

This has totally destroyed all of my carefully crafted bar / clubs where the sims would only use the dancing animations relating to the music type. Now they only dance cowpoke!

@xochiquetzl_xkvn thank you for the video example of this problem! 🥰 Seeing all the Sims at a Japanese festival with slow Japanese folk music vigorously dance the Cowpoke dance is hilarious! 🤣

I wish I could remove this from my game entirely. It's excessive and does not align with my gameplay. I hope they come out with a fix for this without having to use MCCC.

I regret buying this pack specifically for this annoying dance. I feel like it should have been lumped I’m with the group or dances tied to the dance floors.

@candiecoatediv I don't see where the fix is in MCCC. I checked under "tuner" and there's nothing about stereos....please help!

For the record, I am NOT a fan of country music or line dancing, but I love the pack overall. I just wish this cowpoke thing would be limited like everyone said already. It's easier to change the station than just cancel out dancing altogether! lol
