Creating a Default Object Script that will Run the Above Mentioned State Machine (feature new to TS3 Animator as of 11/27/2011)

1. Click File->New->Script
2. In the textbox that says "Class Name" in gray, type:

Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Miscellaneous.MyLocoDresser

1. In the big empty box, type:

namespace Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Miscellaneous
{
 public class MyLocoDresser : Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.ShelvesStorage.Mimics.DresserDesigner
 {
 public override void OnStartup()
 {
	base.OnStartup();
	base.AddInteraction(PlayObjectAnim.Singleton);

 }

 public sealed class PlayObjectAnim : Sims3.Gameplay.Interactions.Interaction<Sims3.Gameplay.Actors.Sim, MyLocoDresser>
 {
	 public static readonly Sims3.Gameplay.Interactions.InteractionDefinition Singleton = new Definition();


	 private bool PlayTheAnimation(Sims3.Gameplay.Interactions.InteractionInstance instance)
	{
		base.StandardEntry(false);


		this.mCurrentStateMachine = Sims3.SimIFace.StateMachineClient.Acquire(this.InstanceActor, "CrazyDresser", Sims3.SimIFace.AnimationPriority.kAPDefault);
		this.mCurrentStateMachine.SetActor("dresser", this.Target);
		this.mCurrentStateMachine.EnterState("dresser", "Enter");

		mCurrentStateMachine.RequestState("dresser", "Exit");

		base.StandardExit(false);
		return true;
	}

	 protected override bool Run()
	{
		PlayTheAnimation(this);
		return true;
	}

	 [Sims3.Gameplay.Autonomy.DoesntRequireTuning]
	 private sealed class Definition : Sims3.Gameplay.Interactions.InteractionDefinition<Sims3.Gameplay.Actors.Sim, MyLocoDresser, MyLocoDresser.PlayObjectAnim>
	 {
		protected override string GetInteractionName(Sims3.Gameplay.Actors.Sim a, MyLocoDresser target, Sims3.Gameplay.Autonomy.InteractionObjectPair interaction)
		{
			return "Play Animation";
		}

		protected override bool Test(Sims3.Gameplay.Actors.Sim a, MyLocoDresser target, bool isAutonomous, ref Sims3.SimIFace.GreyedOutTooltipCallback greyedOutTooltipCallback)
		{
			return true;
		}
	 }
 }
 }
}

Finally, Export your package and say something in the discussion page if it doesn't work.

This is the .package file that the tutorial should yield.

Further Notes and Clarification:

• To pan in the Jazz Editor, make small circular motions with your mouse near the edge of the screen in the directin that you want to pan.
