Stair animations gone missing

[Inge]

Lately I have noticed my sims float up stairs (very quickly) instead of walking.  I have checked 3 sets of hacked stairs I have, one by Shaklin and two by Targa, and they don't seem to have pulled in any animations that they could have altered globally.

Can anyone think of a hack I might have that could be causing this?

I've had this when I had some hack installed (either Monique or Squinge IIRC), which gave the ghost-walk option to all Sims. It also caused all Sims to glide up/down stairs (no feet walking) even if they were not set to use the walk normally.

I've got stuff from both Monique and Squinge, but I don't remember anything that mentioned ghost walk.  Actually I don't think it's a ghost type thing they're doing up the stairs, they get up and down almost instantly.  In fact it's so quick I am almost not sure they're not simply snapping to the next slot rather than it actually being any sort of animation at all.

Oh, an instant teleport? I have that in almost all custom stairs. Normal stairs still work fine, though.
Does it happen on all of them? Is it limited to modular stairs or full stairs?

[Inge]

I just did another full check.  All modular stairs, including custom ones, have correct animations.  All ready-made stairs, Maxis or custom ones, have no animations

The only thing I can think of is the outdated version of Targa's 2-Tile Wooden Ladder stairs.
Aparrently there was an issue where the 'warp' behaviour was globally passed to all stairs.

That could be it.  I'll try moving out Targa's stairs and see if that makes a difference.  Though I didn't see anything in them that *should* have been able to affect anything globally.  Still we don't know everything yet...
