animations not playing

[rionwt]

Hello,

I have a wee problem with many animations not playing anymore... e.g. the hand to hand training in the bloodworks, npcs frozen on the spot till I get close to them, the juggling of the juggler in mania etc..

I'm sure I've buggered something up somewhere with my endless mod tweaking, have been going through TES4edit and folders to try to see what the problem is, but as yet no luck. Would anyone know some specific places I should be looking at in TES4edit/folders to resolve the problem?

thanks

[HeyYou]

installed any new mods lately? post your load list, there was a thread on the official forums on the same problem....... i don't remember which mod it was that caused it though.

[HeyYou]

Try turning off vilja, and see if that doesn't help.

[Telyn]

Some of the animation and idles mods which are based on PersonalityIdles will cause this issue if you clean them. PersonalityIdles is on the no clean list. If you have cleaned an animation mod lately using TES4Edit, try reinstalling it.

 

 

[rionwt]

no luck on both of those solutions, although when I changed the Invalidation from redirection to alteration the problem regarding the npcs not moving till I get close cleared up, for a while at least, then reverted back to the problem.

Have also tried the animation fixer application (http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5127) but it does seem to be that. :(

[HeyYou]

I know this is a mod problem, but, for the life of me, I can't remember which one, and I can't find the thread on the official forums where this problem was solved...... I am pretty sure it was a companion mod though, try turning off all your companion mods, and see if that doesn't fix the problem.

[rionwt]

Took off all the companion mods, no joy with that :( but I had a thought and took the skeleton.nif / skeletonbeast.nif out and the animations started to play again, e.g. juggler, but unfortunately all the graphics went screwy from everything that needed the "Maximum Compatibility Skeletons".

Tried all the other skeleton files out there but they all seem to stop animations from playing, so I'm thinking the skeleton mesh is conflicting with something else, any ideas?
