what's with this greeting ? a bug ?

Rukola_Schaaf

since the last update sims greet each other, i think if they are unknown to each other, with an animation which looks like they would be angry at each other
eg one of my business owners & his customers, one after another greeted this way, it's annoying

does anybody has this too ?

Hello
Does this occur each time that a sim meets a new sim, or does it occur randomly? Does it occur with all households that you play?

i don't know for sure if it's only with unknown sims
it's rather a guess, i am playing a game where at least half of the sims know each other & from time to time they do this sort of a greeting

it occured the first time & most often with one business owner, i played him for the first time & as far i can tell he didn't know anybody & it seemed to me that he greeted every sim in that way
at first i thought it was because he is a loner
but this happened also with another business owner but fewer times, he knew many sims & he isn't a loner
so i thought maybe it's because those were business owners
but then the last time it happened with a teenage girl as she seemed to greet a new member into her club
if i remember correctly there is no icon accompanying this animation

i will try to watch more carefully should it occure again
it happens very fast, it's just a short animation, so it's difficult to track it down

It would be good to see if there is a pattern with it occurring, or if it happens in a certain situation.

I am seeing the same thing with my SIMS. When they greet they are both angry then they get to talking as normal. Please provide a fix.

Hello
Does this occur when all sims greet another sim or is it occurring with just certain sims? Does it occur in all world and at all times?

It occurs usually when they are working in their restaurants or art gallery selling to customers.

It sounds like it is associated to when sims are selling items or food. If you have mods/cc if your game, move the mods folder to your desktop. Launch the game, and test to see if that type of greeting still occurs.

it doesnt just happen in those situations, i saw two sims do it when meeting in granite falls and then they continued to have a nice converstion. ive also seen my sims do it at work

It was helpful to have your feedback on this occuring and seeing the photo of it @esfire
