NPC freezing whenever I get 15 yards away from them

[Kraphomus]

Hi there!

 

Well, my problem is fairly simple: when i get 15 yards away from most NPCs, they freeze in place, even their torches stop "flaming" (The effect is similar to the one you get typing "tai" in the console). If I get close to them they will start moving, but only as long as I stay near them.

 

I assume this problem is due to my game not handling the AI correctly, but I don't know what mod might have caused it. I'd anormously appreciate any kind of help you could provide me to fix this, so thank you in advance!

 

PS.: load order!

Bump?

[Michel889]

I have the same problem. I have been aware of this since I installed the Underdark mod. I don't know if it is the problem. I was hoping some will help me too on this

[HeyYou]

This has got to be a setting somewhere, however, I can find zero information on it...... Other possibility is a hardware limitation. (you are simply asking the CPU to do too much.)

 

As an experiment... Open up your oblivion.ini, located in My Games\Oblivion, (if you don't see file extensions, it will be listed as type: Application Settings), find the setting:

 

bmusicenabled=1

 

Change the one to a zero, and try the game again. See if that improves things any.

[HeyYou]

Ok, from another thread on the OF, try disabling the underdark mod. (esm, and any esp files as well.) see if that fixes it.
