Abductions & Cutscenes not working
At the Curious family, on Strangerville, if you try doing the scripted event where Vidcund is abducted, after interacting with the telescope, the cutscene will start but Vidcund glitches out and stops stargazing in the middle of the cutscene. The spaceships appears and the camera moves as it should (shaking and all), but the Sim simply doesn't act like he should, some times leaving after the action is cancelled during the cutscene, and some times re-queueing the action (In these instances, he'll appear stargazing normally in the cutscene, and doesn't act like the cutscene is happening). After the cutscene ends, regardless of what he did, he isn't abducted, even after waiting for some time.
Some hours laters, he brothers gives birth and the cutscene is also bugged. His plumbob is lower than it should, clipping through him, while the baby is on the ground where he stands (So they doesn't appear out of the plumbob, floating to his arms, like they should), while he looks to the air to where the baby is supposed to be. Some times his arms clips inside him.
I tried replicating the same problem with Don Lothario, in Pleasentview, using cheats to try to get him abducted: He goes to the telescope, then the action is cancelled and nothing happens. So definitely something going on with abductions specifically.
I tried using clean neighborhood templates, deleted the user files so the game can make new ones, reinstalled the game, removed all custom content, and the problem persists, so I believe it's something with the game data.
(No all cutscenes are broken: While testing with Don, his Woohoo cutscene with Nina played out normally)
