    Does your Sim look bored all the time? Even when you think they are having fun, they look bored to you? Not a problem anymore. It’s been… taken care of.

    Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33

I'm wondering if this has something to do with EA tuning down the environment moodlets. Maybe they tuned them down TOO far. Could also have something to do with how the new pack causes Sims to become more sensitive to their environment.

    I decided to load my game with a debug mod I use for modding/troubleshooting... Yes, indeed these idle animations are a result of environment!!! @AthenaApollos I believe is absolutely correct!

      To me it makes perfect sense that Sims would have negative reactions to areas with low environment scores, such as lots or neighborhoods full of smog, trash, etc. What does not make sense is that Sims would have the same reaction to nicely decorated rooms and houses with no smog or trash at all. My Sim is living in Willow Creek and I do not even own the new Eco Lifestyle pack so obviously there is no smog and I was keeping the house clean.

      Maybe they got the new environmental scoring system wrong or it requires the new Eco Lifestyle pack for it to work right?

        I was wondering that too, but instead of waiting to find out, I made an override to disable the Idles. lol I know we can't link stuff here but it's free on my Patreon (Search YourFalseHope) if you'd like a fix until either ea does something about it or if adding the pack fixes it. I couldn't play watching my sims be bored for no reason.
