Problems Running the Cinematic Video command

So I've completed my entry for the June contest and have collected my screenshots which are going to get posted later today. Since I'm going to be travelling for much of the next couple weeks, I decided to go ahead and shoot the video segments early. Just in case I make finals, I want to make sure everything's uploaded and ready-to-go before I leave.

When I attempt to run the command "cqf kgsim_cameracontroller CinematicMode 001654b8" absolutely nothing happens. I also noticed today that something extremely FUBAR appears to have happened to the Game Date in my save (likely from over-using "set gamehour to X" for more consistent progress screenshots). I can't even read what the date says in my Pip-Boy because it's so long and when I used the command "show GameDay" it returned 288, which I thought was supposed to be a number between 1 & 30/31 (or 28).

I don't know for sure if the two are at all connected, but they both strike me as concerning and problematic.

I just downloaded FallRim Tools and looked at the save in question and I'll be honest: I have zero idea what I'm looking for, here. Any suggestions, anyone?

A simple possible for the cinematic issue (which you may already know) can be to make sure that cinematics are turned on in the holotape.
 
@altasilvapuer Not sure about the date thing, but for your cinematic tour you need to include the code for the settlement you want to record. For Greentop it is 0009b1f1, so you would swap 001654b8 (the code for Kingsport Lighthouse) for the code for Greentop in the "cqf kgsim ..."

Edit: here are all the Workshop RefIDs for the settlements for future contests :)
 
Ah, that makes perfect sense! I just pulled the code from the message kinggath sent me when I made finals last month. It didn't even occur to me to look at that ID at the end of the line. I'll test it out tonight and make sure it works.

Thanks!
