NPC animations not working?

[CaptainBragd]

So I've ran into this bug where character animations wont play for certain stuff, so far I have only really noticed that Leah wont work on her sculptures anymore, and Robin wont hammer when she's working on new constructions for you, all in silence as the usual sounds of them hammering wont play either.

 

I captured a gif of Leah bugging out like this here.

 

I am running a number of mods, but none that I think directly affects NPC animations aside from edited sprites of course as you can see in the gif. Anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?

 

SMAPI mods Im currently running include:

AutoGate

BetterRanching

ChefsCloset

CJBItemSpawner

CustomCritters

GetDressed

GiftTasteHelper

ImprovedQualityOfLife

Longevity

MoreArtifactDigspot

NoFenceDecay

NPCMapLocations

SeasonalImmersion

TreeTransplant

 

Beyond that I have a few sprite mods, and dialogue changes (thought none affecting the NPCs that refuse to animate propper), and Karmyllas Immersive NPC map edits.

 

 

 

 

TL;DR:

 

Leah and Robin wont hammer things. How do I restore their animations?

I have located that it is a problem with Longevity and that others have had this problem. If you have updated to the recent version but not ran into this problem, please let me know.

I don't have Longevity, and I also have the Robin issue. Not only does she not move, she faces the wrong way when updating my house. My speakers are off, so I cannot comment on lack of hammer sound.
