Random aggression bug

Recommended Posts

Hi people, I'm having a weird bug with a heavily modded Skyrim SSE installation. Recently I arrived to Whiterun, and Uthgerd the Unbroken started attacking me, and also a random "Laborer" npc became an enemy. My followers killed both. I did a little research on internet and apparently Uthgerd has a bug which makes her aggressive, so I used a couple of command on her and problem fixed.

After that, I moved to Riverwood, and as soon as I get there, some random citizens start attacking me, and a moment later, all the guards become hostile. I thought that maybe I killed a chicken with my Gypsy Eyes Caravan, and I got a bounty, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

 

Loading a previous save game, I go to Whiterun again. Once I go through the city main doors, a couple of "Hunter" NPC's become hostile (these NPC's appeared before inside an inn, also aggressive, I don't know from what mod they come from). A moment later, all the guards become hostile.

 

I don't know what's happening, but everyone seems to be becoming hostile to me randomly. I am not a vampire, and I don't seem to have any active effect causing that (I did resurrect on my character and my followers but the problem persists). I don't have Civil War Overhaul installed, and I also tried to unistall "WARZONES - Civil Unrest" and it's "DLC", but nothing changed.

 

Whatever is causing this, it has to be something related to factions, or bounties, or some script making ppl aggressive randomly. Here's my plugin list:

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

EDIT: After reading many posts on internet, I finally fixed it. The bug seems to be somehow related to Populated Skyrim HELL EDITION, or could also be a vainilla bug. To fix it, I attacked a guard in Whiterun and sheathed my weapon. Then I went to jail and used the bed to skip the sentence. Paying the bounty could work too, but just in case... After that the random attacks stopped.

Thanks for the edit, just experienced this bug myself. And yes, paying off the bounty fixes it.

 

I have never used Populated Skyrim, so it's not likely that one.

 

I was only level 2, started in Solitude via Alternate Start, and had just arrived in Whiterun, so couldn't have offended anyone there, and no Bounties anywhere as I hadn't done anything wrong.

 

Odd one, but thanks again for the fix. :cool:

Hi all!

 

Currently I have the same bug, though my game is not that heavily modded!

For me it started happening after I picked up Serana (Dawnguard DLC) an travelled with her to Whiterun.

The first hostile NPC was Uthgerd the Unbroken, I pacified her by using "SetAV Aggression to 0",

Next was Elrindir at The Drunken Huntsman, first he fled, and later he started attacking.

 

The moment I gave up with the "SetAV Aggression to 0" was when I entered Dragonreach, and everyone was aggressive, even the children!

 

This is my current Load Order:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

I'll try the fix with the Bounty, but instead of attacking a guard you could also use the Console Commands:

player.paycrimegold <X> <Y> <FactionID>

On occasion, this may not pay off the entire bounty
X = 1 Remove stolen items. 0 Do not remove stolen items.
Y = 1 Go to jail. 0 Do not go to jail.

Or else

player.setcrimegold <#> <FactionID>

For all the Faction ID's (on top)

*EDIT*

 

That seems to have worked! Thank you so much for the suggestion.

 

My steps:

1. Open Console (~ key)

2. Type "Player.GetCrimeGold 267ea" (To check current Crime Gold in Whiterun, it read 0, as expected.)

3. Type "Player.SetCrimeGold 1 267ea" (To set the CrimeGold to 1 Gold in Whiterun.)

4. Type "Player.PayCrimeGold 0 0 267ea" (To Pay the CrimeGold, without Items being Confiscated nor needing to go to Jail, in Whiterun.)

 

All aforementioned NPC where no longer hostile!

Those commands worked for me, inspite of the fact all the npc's were attacking me from Riverwood to Helgen.

It would be nice if Bethesda cleaned up their bugging game engine.

 

Like Angry Joe says: "Bethesda you need a new game engine?"

The lame excuse that the technology in't there to make a new game engine is flat-out a lie.

 

STOP LYING BETHESDA.

 

Is IT...any wonder FO 76 is such a crappy game?

 

I now refuse to buy anything bethesda makes till it is reviewed and it is a year later after release.

I am not buying fo76 ever as I can see they are refuseing to fix-IT.

Yeah, had a guard in Falkreath go psycho on me. Ran away, didn't even consider drawing then sheathing. Good to know this is not an indication that my LO is any more messed up than anyone else's after the update. In my case, the other guards did not get involved.

I just encountered this problem in Solitude, and I wrote myself a batch file (for the console):

Dragonborn.esm is 04 in my game, if it is different for you, you need to change the last 3 lines.

Player.GetCrimeGold 267E3
Player.SetCrimeGold 1 267E3
Player.PayCrimeGold 0 0 267E3

Player.GetCrimeGold 29DB0
Player.SetCrimeGold 1 29DB0
Player.PayCrimeGold 0 0 29DB0

Player.GetCrimeGold 2816E
Player.SetCrimeGold 1 2816E
Player.PayCrimeGold 0 0 2816E

Player.GetCrimeGold 2816B
Player.SetCrimeGold 1 2816B
Player.PayCrimeGold 0 0 2816B

Player.GetCrimeGold 2816F
