bug/glitch or just strange found my twin as a npc why?

[nicolaec99]

I loaded up a saved game today that placed me inside my chyedinhal house and I have seen that there is a second version of my player standing in my house in the game as a npc and no mod adds her, it is the most strangest thing I ever encountered it looks as if made by the skull of corruption but I did not even get that yet and my twin is not evil she has the same outfit and same race anyone know if this is a bug/glitch or just something strange.

Well there is a command to make a duplicate of your character which is createfullactorcopy. I doubt you did that but maybe the game did something like that itself, is your twin there if you reload?

[nicolaec99]

yes and it's not really a issue I was just wondering how would the game do that? this is strange I think that's one reason no one answered me on the steam forums no one ever had this same strange encounter and she does have a dialogue but only two words are there rumors and the give gift option that one is from my give a gift mod.

Yeah I looked this up and didn't find anything and I've never encountered it before. I know the longer you play, vanilla or not, it gets more unstable. Best choice here is to just kill your twin or open the console, click on the duplicate, and type disable. You should no longer have to see your clone in the saves afterwards.

well we can blame bethesda for oblivion being unstable in my opinion they failed much when making oblivion few things that we could have done without 1 thing is the stagger/recoil and few others morrowind was ok I liked it better then the failed oblivion and skyrim was the best of the elderscrolls series but that can be said about fallout nv and fallout 3 was a failure fallout 4 was the only one in the fallout series that was good.

Did you try and use "FormID Finder", or similar, to try and find out which mod added this?

Or do you happen to have a list of your mods, so people might spot something they recall doing a thing like that?

What's its name say anyways?

 

For what it's worth, the Vanilla game shouldn't be doing that. I know of only 2 occurrences myself where the Vanilla game creates a direct 1:1 copy of yourself and your items:

1) in a quest (Shivering Isles I think) to create a worthy opponent (the special shader effect of the clone could've just as well simply worn off)

2) For your statue in Bruma

(3) I've also seen it done in other longer quest mods in the past)

 

Yes, that last one's a copy of you, then frozen in place by the ToggleActorAI command, which is known to be possible to break by one or more things in a modded game.

I won't be surprised, if for some reason your statue came alive and searched you around Cyrodiil to finally meet where you're now.

 

Actors without any AI packages can do some weird things at times, especially when there's also mods changing around AI packages left, right and center without checking who it is or what they were for first. Won't be surprised either, for example, if some companion mod was able to mess up the statue in Bruma to make it follow you around by accident.

and my copy is not shaded and for some reason my forest friend amulet mod and the stagger/recoil mod stopped working idk why maybe one of the mods overwrites them and the dark brotherhood chronicles quest is broken already commented and sent the creator a message about that weeks ago no anser so I gave up and stopped playing that mod but still keep it enabled.
