    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

    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

@gwenleah This entire thread is. However, if you're interested in fixing it with a mod... I have done so (search YourFalseHope on patreon - it's free, can't post links on this forum). It seems to be based on the over/under tuning of the environmental scoring. There are 2 idle in which can occur - a positive (shows as inspired idle animation) or negative (shows as bored idle). If you don't want to use a mod to fix it - you'll need to wait for EA to maybe look into fixing it...

@Abradley745 I did install your mod. It didn't seem to help but will try again.

    @gwenleah Try clearing your cache

    How to clear your cache:

    Step 1: Delete the localthumbcache.package file in the main directory in The Sims 4 document folder.

    Step 2: Open up the Cache folder, and delete all of the files that end in .cache.

    Step 3: Open up the Cachestr folder, and delete all the files inside.

    Step 4: If you have a folder called onlinetumbnailcache, you can delete this entire folder.

    Step 5: If you have any files called “LastException” or “LastUIException” or “LastCrash” you can delete them as well.

    @Abradley745 I reinstalled your mod and have been playing for the last 20 min or so and it's working now. Not sure why I didn't notice improvement the first time, I always clean my cache up with new/different mods.
    Thank you! It's so wonderful to see playful, happy, focused and even sad Sims act like they're supposed to.
