Switch Leo 9 heart scene crashes, can't enter mountains without having to restart the day...

[ecc9]

Playing Switch, this happens every time I enter the mountains during the day.

v1.6.9 build 40
English, single player, Winter year 2 (it has happened on multiple different days, but most recently on day 16)

If I enter the mountains, Leo's 9-heart cutscene starts. I see Linus and Leo cooking bean hotpot, and then Leo, Jas, Penny, and Vincent in the library. After that scene fades, the screen goes black and I do not see the rest of the cutscene. I can open my inventory menu using A or +, and open my journal using -, but the screen behind remains black and there is no way to exit (tried all of the buttons) without quitting the software and restarting from last save.

This exact thing is happening to me as well. Leo's 9-heart cutscene. Leo and Linus cooking, fades to the library scene, then fades to black and... nothing. After a couple of attempts I brought a farm warp totem and (blindly) used it to head back home, hoping that might get me past the scene, but re-entering the mountains just begins it again with the same thing happening.

Playing on PS4 with the most recent update. Single player, winter year 5, has happened on the 15th and again on the 16th when I avoided that event for the entire day.

***EDIT***

Just a heads up for the OP (and me), I am reading that the problem might be this scene triggering during the Night Market portion of the calendar. That is a common factor between you and I. Supposedly the scene will play out correctly when the beach is back to normal, after the Night Market ends. Will check on this soon!

Yep. There is a segment of the cutscene that takes place on the docks, and apparently the Night Market occurring stops that from happening. Move past the Night Market on your calendar and you should be good to go. Just worked for me.

My cut scene was fine. I had the scene in summer though.
