Have exactly same bug, trying to figure out settings of camera positioning in oblivion reloaded, but not find perfect solution. Even Im not sure what causes this - firstly i tought that might be Claudia's little secret with HGEC female body replacer and Robert Male body replacer with oblivion character overhaul alltogheter - they could making black magic with skeletons, but its rather oblivion reloaded issue. Still searching for solution - let me know, if you find something. One more thing - there is Male Body Replacer V5 if you wish. -edit- You might play with those: OffsetX = 0 OffsetY = 15 OffsetZ = 4 That are default [CameraMode] section settings in oblivion reloaded.ini; first parameter is for moving camera left and right, second up and down, third forth and back - all counting from nose of your character. Also you can turn off camera mode in upper [Main] section, but for me it works very oddly - its putting camera very high and im not seeing shield/sword blocking nor weapon swipes. -edit2- Turned off OR camera mode and trying Enhanced Camera Mod. I've halfed positioning in ini file, allowed for shield showing and turned on experimental 3rd person arms, but its a lot of fine tuning to find perfection. Hope that might help. -edit3- It was caused by skeleton.nif file provided by Deadly Reflex, exchange that to vanilla one seems to fix problems
