Mod: Walk Normal
Updates:
2024 January 14th - Added Vampire and Werewolf walks upon request. Old settings file must be deleted as well this time, then add the new settings file from the download and re-edit.
2021 September 10th - Updated for Spa Day refresh changes. This mod has also been converted into a script to make it easier for me to update, and makes it more patch resistant. The description has been updated to reflect those changes, please read all of it so you are not confused.
2021 March 26th - Updated NoEmotionalWalks for minor trait changes.
Original version adopted from Scarlet.
This script mod disables the different walk styles in-game so your sims walk normal. It comes with a settings file (MizoreYukii_WalkNormal_Settings) that you can edit to pick and choose what walk styles are disabled, similar to the original mod where you chose what packages to install.
To make transition easy the setting names have the same names as the original packages. Please note that all the settings are set to False when you first download the files, you must edit the settings file to choose what you want disabled otherwise the mod won't do anything. Simply open and edit the file in Notepad (or any similar program) and set the walk styles you want disabled to True (or yes or on, they all work), like in the picture below. In a future update the settings will be available in-game as well to make things easier. If you do not own one of the packs for the bottom settings and accidentally enable one, it won't produce LEs as I put pack checks in the script.
When updating the mod for future updates you do not need to delete the settings file and only the script, similar to MCCC and other mods using settings (unless I mention otherwise).

Conflicts
This mod should not conflict with anything as it is a script, and also will not contribute to the script limit.

Is it possible to turn of only 1-2 emotional walks and leave the rest? I just want energized and confident gone
The mod that actually works!
My hero! s2
can you pretty please add butler walks to this
Sorry for the late reply, and yeah sure!
In which folder do you put the file?
Place all of the mods files directly in the main mods folder or only one sub-folder deep.
So if I want the pregnancy walk to stay which one do I edit False means yes I want pregnancy walk so I leave it false
True = disable that walk False = don't disable that walk So leave NoPregnancyWalk as False since you want it to stay.
Thank you for the response 😊 so if I use their emotional packages with your mod would it still conflict with mods that change moods like low fun is bored and low energy is dazed?
Thank you for keep this updated and also for turning this into a script with a settings file. I was wondering if there a way to state it for them to only do emotional walks at a high level of emotion e.g very angry
Sorry for the late reply! At the moment that's not a feature, but I can try looking into it at a later date. I believe Chingyu has their own version of the emotional walkstyles (not a script) that does that though, so you could allow emotional with my mod, then download and install their emotional packages and use that instead.
When I try to save the settings file from notepad, it tries to change it to a .txt. Do I need it to stay as a .cfg? If so, how do I do that? The only options it's giving me is .txt or to save as all files. The only things I want is the NoCelebWalk, NoPregnancyWalk, and NoPeeWalk.
Are you hitting "Save As"? You only need to click "Save" when trying to save. But as long as it says .cfg at the end of the name then it will keep the .cfg (and yes it needs to stay as .cfg). So if, for some reason, it is trying to save as "MizoreYukii_WalkNormal_Settings.txt" instead of "MizoreYukii_WalkNormal_Settings.cfg", you can just delete the .txt part and add .cfg instead.
