elguiri Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) Hello, this is my first post to the excellent forums, which have helped me a lot so far just reading others posts/replies from the community. I have a annoying problem that I could not find an answer to: After viewing the map while mounted on a horse, the camera angle resets to a side view of my character on the horse. This is my first playthrough I am not sure if this is default behavior, or perhaps a mod effect - can anyone tell me? (I use the great convienient horses, SkyUI and high quality maps). Either way does anyone know how to stop this camera angle reset from happening? I would have expected the camera angle to remain where I left it before heading into the map... the issue really becomes important when fleeing/in combat - I look at the map for an escape route only to return out of the map, become disorientated/run gallop off the wrong way (and get killed in the process :-). Thanks in advance, any comments pointers or help greatly appreciated!!! Edit: Clarification: The camera angle reset appears to happen the moment you try to move on the horse, not actually when you come out of the map view - which does return you to the camera angle you were on before calling up the map.

ArdanS Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Have a similar problem. I noticed it happens right after opening a menu. Start menu, Map, Inventory, whatever. If you move the horse while mounted, the camera will try to face auto north. If anyone has the same bug and knows an answer or even where to look, any help would be appreciated. Have a modded game following the S.T.E.P guide Ver. 2.2.7. Edited October 14, 2013 by ArdanS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidevalGuy Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) I can confirm having this problem as well. I use Convenient Horses and a Quality World Map, too. Not only is it annoying, but it can be deadly because when the camera resets to a particular direction after switching back from a menu, the horse turns that direction because you control the horse's direction with the camera. I have gone off the bridge at the College of Winterhold (as an extreme example) because I didn't have enough room to turn the horse (forward). There is an option in Convenient Horse's MCM menu that says something about a correcting a glitch with mounted combat and player animations, but I don't think this is the same thing, nor is it what is causing the problem.

ArdanS Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Ugh. I might be wrong, but it seems its a hard coded vanilla bug that came about during the 1.6 update. If that's true, well... bummer. Thankfully its not a game breaker to most players, otherwise someone would have fixed it by now. As for the rest... *Sheds a tear* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully its not a game breaker to most players, otherwise someone would have fixed it by now. As for the rest... *Sheds a tear* Has anyone ever found a fix for this? It not only changes the camera angle for me, it also FORCES me to travel in the new direction even if i correct which direction I'm going first. I've learned to never view the map while moving, but this is a serious pain in my butt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never found a fix just learned not to access map/menu while in "tricky" situations... role play it as "Never take your eyes off the road while on horseback" ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSM86 Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 I know this is old. But I am still playing TESV. Does anyone know of a fix, or why it's happening? Seemed like a problem I could just deal with, until I started riding off cliffs... Now it's just annoying. ANY information would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
