Anyone have any ideas? I'm wanting to install some different idle and walk animations for UNP, but I'm waiting till I get a handle on what may be going on. Thanks for any assistance...

That seems to have done it- I'm running all the 2K texture packs now without the freeze - THANK YOU Dumitas for the link!!

I've seen mention on a few different mod threads something about an "endless loading screen bug" - can someone give an example of what this looks like? I ask because the first time I tried launching my game after installing the "Skyrim HD 2K Textures" mod (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/607/?), I'm occasionally getting a FREEZE after about 20 seconds of the loading screen (the swirling fog and the model freezes, as does the tips text display) - when I look in Task Manager Skyrim is "Not Responding" and needs to be terminated. I uninstalled (via NMM) the entire 2K Textures Pack but still occasionally (every 5th or 6th time I launch) get the same freeze behavior, which doesn't seem to make any sense. Anyone have any ideas? Don't THINK this is specific to the 2K Textures mod (since it's currently uninstalled but the behavior is still occurring) but... (((shrug))).

I recently started a fresh, new load of Skyrim, and the first tjhing I did (after getting the Unofficial Patch and the Unofficial HD patch) was update the main player model using the UNP body. Before I did anything else, to make life easier, I use the UNP Replacer Configuration Package mod (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/20884/?) and installed it via the Nexus Mod Manager. On install of the Replacer Package, I am able to select a body, skeleton, breast physics, etc. After install, I re-run "Generate FNIS" to make sure the animation scripts are enabled - I always get two possible errors when running Consistence Check in FNIS, both related to a "jump back" animation. After all this is done, I launched Skyrim via SKSE. Right from initial opening scene, my character body show the appropriate meshes and skins and look good - the PROBLEM is in the ANIMATIONS. At random times (typically when changing direction with the movement keys), I'll be running along fine, and then for a few seconds it's like the game forgets the animation files - the model stands up straight with the splayed arms and legs (no animation), then a few seconds later starts running again all on its own. It's not BREAKING anything, but it's distracting as HELL and I'd like it gone if possible. Please let me know if you need a screenshot of my NMM load order screen - I've installed several other mods since then and none seem to affect this weird animation behavior (good or bad). ANY help with this would be very much appreciated - thanks!! EDIT: Was just playing, and noticed the same behavior in enemies/NPCs as well! WTF???

Question (sorry if this was covered somewhere in the past in this very large thread)... I have a weapons rack in the Windhelm house that, when I removed the currently-placed weapon, no longer displays the "Hit "E" to activate" prompt, regardless of whether or not I have a weapon equipped. Now that plaque cannot be used. Sadness! 1. Can I either REACTIVATE it with a console command, or perhaps REPLACE it with a new, active weapons display plaque? 2. Can I place additional plaques (or the larger, floor-mounted weapons stands) on open walls? I can see a few places where it looks like they'd fit. Thanks in advance!

5 But that's precisely the thing... by repeating the same few things over and over and over and over it calls attention to how FAKE she really is! I tried the MOD linked to and it's LOTS better - she now only says a few things, not the constant repetitive chatter. Thanks for the suggestion....

Can someone recommend a MOD that will STFU the way-too-talkative NPCs? I could have sworn I saw a MOD file for this on the Nexus a while back but I can't find it now. What I'm NEEDING in a MOD is: 1. Something that will stop random NPCs from wandering past while I'm talking to a quest NPC (like the Jarl fer chrissake) and interrupting with random BS like "I sell the best belly-lint sweaters in all of Skyrim! Would you like to but one?" Jeez... STFU already!!!! 2. Something that will ALSO STFU your companions. I didn't notice how bad random companion chatter was until I took Mjol along as a companion... I swear to GOD if I have to listen to her talk about her father taking her to Morrowind to hunt cliff racers or about how her MOTHER taught her her SWORD FIGHTING TECHNIQUES (can you IMAGINE????????????????????????)I'm gonna kill her myself. Any help is vastly appreciated.... =) -Matt

That's what I figured - just checking, in case I missed it. Thanks!

Question for you MOD experts out there: One of my favorite Fallout MODs was a "backpack" item that allowed the player to carry several different amounts of gear without adding to their overall encumbrance. Oblivion had the same MODs, as well as a "Bag of Holding/Inter-dimensional Safe" type MOD that allowed the player to store unlimited amounts of stuff in a single item. This was nice but not as realistic (IMHO) as the backpack, which only allowed the user to carry ADDITIONAL (not unlimited) gear. I checked the Nexus but didn't find anything using search terms like "backpack" or "Bag of Holding" - has no-one made such a MOD for Skyrim yet or is such a thing dependent on the availability of the Creation Toolkit? Thanks in advance!

Just keep choosing the install option, after 20-30 tries it will work. Sadly those audio drivers didn't work for me though, good luck. Yeah after the 30-somethingth try it worked, but the audio drivers did not fix the problem :'( . I give up, i'll still follow the thread but this game can go to hell. Just go play something else for a while and come back - they'll get it soon, I'm sure. Not worth getting worked up over - there are plenty of games in the world. Actually, if they see their player base declining all of a sudden, perhaps it will light the fire under them to fix it sooner...

This is great to know... Thanks!

Whelp... now I'm COMPLETELY FUBARed. Can't play AT ALL. If I try to Fast Travel from WHiterun, I CTD in the loading screen. If I try to leave via the gate, I CTD at the load screen. If I *do* make it outside (2 of my 7 attempts), I CTD while running outside after about 30 seconds (before I can even get off the hill). Disabled all my MODs (even the ones that had been running 50, 60, or more hours without a hitch) but no dice. CTDs are everywhere. Has anyone tried uninstalling the app and reloading from the installation DVD? Did it help? I see thrads asking for help with non-loading Save game files. Very frustrating...

I installed the 3D Map MOD and it's really cool and all... MOST of the time. However, since the map renders with whatever current weather effect is running (as per the dox), often I can't see ANYTHING except a bunch of map markers, floating in a pearly mist. The dox say to type in "fw 15e" into the console to clear the weather effects but nothing happens. Does anyone know how to clear the weather mist from the map once and for all? Thanks --Matt

I've tried it but I can't get it working on 64-bit (the file says it has issues with it). :( If anyone managed to get it running on WIn-7 64 LMK how you accomplished it. -M
