rms827 Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 I've run into this problem for ages and I'm hoping somebody knows a fix. My character will start an animation, usually it's the mining /pick axe animation where this happens, and my character will stop the animation and just stand there. Sometimes they're rooted in place, sometimes they can move, but I'm stuck in 3rd person with no scroll in or our and at a wierd camera angle I can't change. The game won't let me save at that point either. My only fix thus far is to quit to main menu and reload, which sucks if it's been a while since I saved. Is there a console command to clear the broken animation or some other "fix" for this? I'm assuming it's happened to others.
Tamira Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 If you are stuck in an animation it usually helps to jump. ;)

I'm not stuck doing the animation. It's more a case of the animation breaks as soon as it starts and I'm stuck waiting for the "runs in the background" portion of it to end.
NiteBeast Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Some questions please: Do you have any head tracking or 1st person immersion mods?Have you installed a new skeleton like XP32's or any animation packages like FNIS?Do you notice NPCs with the same problem?Do you have any tweaking mods for mining, chopping wood, etc. to get more reward per action... more ore, more wood?Have you sorted your load order? I've had grief with animations, I had the T pose on almost everything. I ended up doing a manual reinstall of the animation system and mods to get mine working again. I never noticed anything getting better by loading a previous save though. That sounds a lot like script lag and the reload of a save just resets the script engine. After you play for a while it happens again, load... reset and on you go. Can you post your load order or at least a mod count and what your current papyrus settings are in your Skyrim ini?
rms827 Posted May 15, 2015 Author Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Good questions NiiteBeast. I should have provided such info up front 1) No first person mods. Tried them once and just wasn't that wow'ed. Color me weird there, lol 2) Yep, I have Groovtama's Expanded XP32 skeleton, and FNIS (which I run when I add or remove animation related mods) 3) Nope, it's just my player character 4) No tweaking mods either. They've always felt a bit like cheating to me (even though it's silly an ore vein runs out of ore after you extract 3 lbs, lol) 5) Yep, I've sorted the load order Reading the bottom of your post I suspect you're right about script load. My last play through, which I just cleared out for other reasons, I had 220 mods installed that had .esp files. A few of them were fairly script hungry also. Ergo, I'd bet you're probably right about script lag. It always happens after I've been playing a while. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Sounds like I just need to re-think the size and content of my load order. Edited May 15, 2015 by rms827
