All of Chucky's Hidey-Ho transition animations are missing

SUMMARY OF THE ISSUE: So, when using Hidey-Ho, normally there's an animation the moment you press the button to start the power, which is Chucky leaning forward and hunching over while moving his knife a bit. There's also another animation with Chucky doing a little juggle with his knife, which plays when you either cancel the power manually, when the power timer runs out, or when you miss a Hidey-Ho attack.

Well, all of these animations in all of these situations are currently missing. The lack of the little knife juggle at the end of Hidey-Ho (and its sound cue as well) is especially noticeable, and it's pretty awkward how that little slowdown you get is still there, but it lacks an animation transition, so it only looks like you're walking super slowly for a second for no reason at all, and without anything indicating when the slowdown ends.

This applies to all of Chucky's skins, Tiffany included.

PLATFORM: PS5, but I've also seen it on every platform. Not sure about Switch but it's probably there too.

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW THE ISSUE OCCURED: For the first missing animation it's simply just pressing the button. The little animation should start immediately after the imput, but it's currently not there.

For the knife juggle animation it's either missing a Hidey-Ho attack, hitting an object with it instead of a survivor, cancelling the Hidey-Ho mode manually, or letting the timer run out. It's missing in all of those instances.

I don't think there's anything missing in the successful Hidey-Ho attack animation, but might be worth checking that too.

    Thanks for taking the time to lay this out in so much depth! Would you happen to have or be able to get before and after footage of what you were and are experiencing here? That would be immensely helpful for sending through to our team.

    Yeah sure, I got the videos just now, but it won't let me upload them directly in here, what's the allowed or needed way of doing this through here?

    Ahh, are you running into a file-size error? If needed, zipping them may help.

    Got it! I've zipped them, and here's a brief rundown of both:

    Chucky Bug Videos.zip
    1. The first video shows how he slightly moves his knife while entering and exiting Hidey-Ho. There's even some small audio effects to accompany these knife movements which are missing from the current build of the game. The video is from the Halloween event, but the animations have always been the same regardless of it.
    2. The second video is from just some days ago. When entering Hidey-Ho, Chucky just instantly leans forward, without the transition metallic knife sound or its juggle movement. And while exiting it, he doesn't juggle the knife anymore (and the audio isn't there either), he just walks slowly for a second and that's it.

    Hope it's helpful! Sorry for the super low quality of the videos, that's what I had at hand lol

    Thank you!
