Hello everyone!! How are you today??

This is going to be a long post... I'm warning you haha but I will try to make it as simple as I can:

These poses are a comission for one of my best friends in the community. When she asked me to do them, I was really happy with the idea and I made these poses really fast and with all my heart haha. I loved the results, but then there was the time to test them... and it was quite more complicated than i anticipated it.... I had to test these poses like 40 times, but I'm finally able to say that they are the best they can be.

We didn't know it was going to be that hard to make them work ingame, but unfortunately, they were... and they still are a little tricky to use, but I tried to make them the less difficult to be used as I could.

Making poses to be use with sims in Sulani waters is a real nightmare...

Anyway, this pose pack consist of 2 similar sequences, and are made so that you can combine one sequence with the other.

- Sequence #1 is done with 2 adults, 1 toddler and 1 infant (Poses #1 to #7).

- Sequence #2 is done with 2 adults, 1 child and 1 toddler (Poses #8 to #14).

- Poses #15 and #16 are bonus poses of the child in the boat inside the water.

so for example: you can have 2 toddlers instead of 1 toddler and 1 child/infant, using the toddler from the 2nd sequence in the 1st sequence and not using the infant poses but the poses with the female alone; or you can also make 2 toddlers and 1 child, adding the toddler from the 1st sequence into the 2nd one; or 2 toddlers and 1 infant; or you can use just the child poses in "Moana" style... xD

However, there are some exceptions where two poses cannot be used at the same time. But in general I tried to make them quite versatile... at least with the children sims.

And God bless Twisted Mexi for the search mod, cause it makes testing poses 100% fast and easier....

Anyway, even if the pack is a little bit tricky, I encourage you to try it. It's a good pack, and I'm no saying it 'cause I'm the maker... or ' cause it was a lot of work xD but because I think it so.

How to use them?

Poses out of the water:

Poses #1 and #8: Place 3 teleporters in the same place where you want your sims to pose.
Poses #2 and #9: Place 1 teleporter in the middle of the OBJECT [Simmerianne93]Canoe_sculptobject, as shown in the reference image.
Poses #3 to #5 and #10 to #12: Place 4 teleporters in the middle of the OBJECT [Simmerianne93]Canoe_sculptobject, as shown in the reference image.

Poses inside the water:

Poses #6, #7: (YOU NEED THE MOD TOOL TO LOCATE THE INFANT)
- Place 3 teleporters in the middle of the ISLAND LIVING canoe and raise it with the bb.moveobjects cheat active and ctrl +9, until it touches the surface of the boat floor. As shown in the reference image.
- (IF USING AN INFANT) Place 1 teleporter on dry land, with the rotation pointing the same way as the teleporter in the water, and make the infant pose.
- With the help of the TOOL mod, move the infant to its correct position in the water, sitting on F's legs.
Poses #13 and 14: Place 4 teleporters in the middle of the Island Life canoe and raise it with the bb.moveobjects cheat active and ctrl +9, until it touches the surface of the boat floor. As shown in the reference image.
Poses #15 and #16: Place 1 teleporter in the middle of the Island Life canoe and raise it with the bb.moveobjects cheat active and ctrl +9, until it touches the surface of the boat floor. As shown in the reference image.

Know:

I tried to make these poses work completely without the help of an external mod (except for the poses with the infant in the water) but, to make these poses work 100%, I highly recommend using the TOOL mod since, due to the water mechanism on Sulani Beaches, Sims may be floating in some poses, or may be cropped with the object. Use the TOOL mod to adjust the sims height in case this happens. (usually it is 0.05 if they are below the surface of the boat floor or -0.05 if they are floating).
Likewise, if you want to pose your sims outside the lot boundaries, you need the TOOL mod. When you place the sims in waters outside the lot, the sims will surely be floating in the air. Lower them with the TOOL mod to - 0.05
If you don't want to use an infant in the poses, sim F has 2 versions in poses #5, #6 and #7, or you can use poses #12. #13 and #14. There is a lot of versatility in this package to make it all work with or without certain sims.
CC Canoe object disappears if you zoom in too close, but it's handy to pose the infant.
CC Canoe object can't be used inside the water (It will sink). It's a statue and i didn't know how to make it float.
Be careful selecting the poses 'cause there are poses for INFANTS and for TODDLERS, they're not the same rig and they can glitch if you use the wrong type of sim.
If your infant still uses the tummy time mat, you can add the invisible mat replacement mod to hide it.
If your infant does not yet know how to sit, you will have to wait for them to finish lying down when they are teleported to make them pose.
There can be minor clipping or floating deppending on the clothe your sims are using and because every sim-body is different.

CAREFUL!!

You CANNOT move the sims (adult, child and toddler) in the water with the infant sim at the same time because that will make the infant to disappear.
In case the infant disappears, don't panic. Go to build mode and return to live mode. The baby will appear somewhere in the world. Simply teleport it back to the lot or, in the mod tool settings, click on the sand and then "undo".

----------

As I said before, this is a tricky pack to use, so I apologize in advance, but I tried to make it as easy as possible for everyone to use it. Problems are reduced if you don't use an infant in the poses.

PS: If you uses the search mod, by twisted mexi that I highly recommend, seach for "Canoe" and the pack is going to show inmediately. Same when looking for the object in build mode. Seach "canoe" and it should appear.
