Sim can't travel into the future sims 3

So I bought and installed the Into the future expansion pack yesterday, and it hasn't been working at all. The portal spawned on my sim's lawn, but she gets stuck inspecting it for hours, and I have to use resetsim to get her out of the action. I tried selling the old portal and buying a new one, and it didn't work. I tried moving her out and back in, and it didn't work. I saved her to the bin, and started a new game and placed her in it, still didn't work. Took all of my mods off the game, still didn't work. Tried reinstalling Into the Future, still didn't work. Cleared all of my caches, nothing. I even removed the Sims 3 file from my documents folder so a new one would be created and that didn't help. I broke down and installed nraas's traveler mod, and it hasn't helped me at all. I've also tried new families in different towns, and they can't use the portal either, they just get stuck.

I cannot get this to work and I'm losing my patience with this game. Anyone know what I can do?

    I've tried that several times, as well. Once it worked, and a random sim I made on the new Sims 3 file was able to get the time traveler to come through the portal. But I switched back to my old file, and once again resetted and created a new Sims 3 folder and it won't work. So I honestly have no clue what the problem is.

    are all your mods up to date too? to the same patch level as your game just in case an outdated mod may be interfering  ? if you update the mods make sure to clear the cache especially the scriptCache.package

    also did you try start a new game with that sim to see if the issue is resolved that way with that sim
