Re: I keep getting exceptions for "posture"

@juucebok Please move your mods folder to the desktop, delete Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > localthumbcache, repair your game.

After that play on a backup for a while to see if you get the error on a vanilla game (there will be a lastException.txt file in your documents folder if it does.

Upload that file (either as rar file or c/p the content)

    @crinrict I’ve done this and every other thing people say to solve it, when I remove the mods it’s still like this. It’s something in the sims 4 folder but it isn’t any of the folders. I don’t know what posture is or how to fix it.

    @juucebok Usually it's just some animation gone wrong in the game and nothing to worry about but if it's excessive it's good to look at it.

    Did you get any new lastException files ?

    Sorry, here's the exception reason, I'm not sure how to attach the actual exception file it won't allow me.

    Exception in Sim Timeline: Exception running Element (RuntimeError: Sim: Penny Pizzazz Attempting to get an element from next_stage on 'PosturePrimitive(PairedDancing_Prom:619)' before consuming the previous one (_StageProgress.FirstStage))

    @juucebok So you're spammed by this message ? Is BE the only mod you have in ?

    As said above, posture error are really nothing to be concerned about unless spammy. This one seems an issue with slow dance I would say.

    @crinrict It usually happens when I knock on a neighbors door in city living to tell them to keep the noise down and when the neighbor goes back into their apartment I get this exception

    @juucebok Weird. Do you just get the exception or does something happen ?

    Maybe move penny somewhere else.

    Recommended ActionNo mods were listed in the exception but you do have mods installed.
    Close your game, try removing handfuls of mods from your Mods folder and retry what you did when you received the exception.
    If the exception does not occur then the problem is likely with that mod.
    Check the mod download for any recent updates. 
    Possible Cause

    (Confidence: 10%)
