Headless Bug


Mexay

Recommended Posts

So it's no secret that to date there is a bug that allows the player to become irreversibly headless and the fixes for it are... well... they don't work too well.

 

So while looking through the little command thing I typed "help" and scrolled through (PageUp, for those that don't know how). I found this:

 

GetKillingBlowLimb

 

Now, when you type:

 

player.getkillingblowlimb

 

The command returns the following:

 

Last Hit Limb is >> 1

 

Now, I'm going to assume that 1 = head

 

Therefore we can assume that there is SOME sort of command that sets the head to become "missing" even AFTER all the bug fixes (I've managed to keep my head and not have that scar appear and not have my body ragdoll, but it falls off when I mount a horse or do any animation that is semi-cinematic)

 

So, I don't know if this helps anyone but I'm going to guess that there is someone who could use this information to make a script of some sort to fix this common bug.

 

Thoughts, comments, rants etc. are welcome.

I would also like to add that upon entering the same command on a character that has NOT been beheaded it returns the following:

 

Last Hit limb Is >> -1

 

So I'm assuming that if no limbs have been hit that the value is -1

 

I believe that all the relevant functions can be found by typing

 

help LIMB 0

 

And scrolling up

Going through the creation kit at the moment and it appears that the 'head' is an actual object. I've found that it has a particular ID based on your race and gender. I really hope someone can create a fix for this soon.

There's a Mod thats called "AllArmorPlayable" or something similar. What happens on the headless issue is you are given a new "invisible" armor that changes your toons mesh/skin to one that has no head. With the mod, you can remove the previously "invisible" armor and get your head back. It works with NPS' and you can take the headless "armor" off an adversary you just decapitated and wear it - having your head go away. It also works with Suzanne the wicked once you get to the point where she's the highlight of a quest. Its a funny mod to play with and theres a lot of things that are just armor overlays.
