Afromelon Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Yeah, you guys have all heard about flying mammoths before, but get a load of this. Loaded a savegame from just after i killed the dragon at kynesgrove, when suddenly, 5 or so dead mammoths just fell from the f***ing sky right in front of me and piled on top of eachother. WTF BETHESDA?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rennn Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) Yep, lol. I once had a Stormcloak patrol run into the sky. I guess they were going to Sovngarde, lol. Once it started raining bandits and spiders, though I suppose that's less dangerous than mammoths. :P Edited July 9, 2013 by Rennn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triaxx2 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 At least they were dead Mammoths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afromelon Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 Is this anything i should worry about in regards to mods doing funny things with my game though? Cause everyone has seen mammoths spawning in the sky at a distance, even in vanilla. Never in my years would i have thought this could happen though!

Rennn Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I've never seen mammoths spawn in the sky at all. O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion911 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) I saw a mammoth in the sky in the first week of play (vanilla) so I went there to investigate and a giant hit me and throw me in the sky then I supposed that they were brawling before my arrive.

RatcatcherOfKvatch Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I know how I caused at least one mammoth to fall from the sky. I was trying to draw a mammoth to that big fort in the middle of Whiterun Hold (Fort Greymoor I think). The problem is that if a mammoth steps too far outside its "home cell" it vanishes. Oh well, so much for that strategy. However, when I ran back to where the mammoth should have been, I noticed kind of on the other side of the cell the mammoth spawning in midair, crashing to earth (nirn?), and dying. I didn't get the GSG but I got a tusk at least. Anyway I think the mammoth rain bug has to do with mammoths walking outside their home cell or outside of one of the cells adjacent. I don't actually know how the cell system works when you're actually playing; I can tell from the hard drive when new cells are loading but I never have to wait, so I think there's a ring of cells around the player that get loaded as the player zones from cell to cell. But I'm just guessing. Anyway, if a mammoth chases you farther than the designers ever expected mammoths to chase players you can get a falling mammoth.
