TUTORIAL: REMOVING UNWANTED MAGIC EFFECTS FROM THE PLAYER

Recommended Posts

Any idea how to fix this ? It's some sort of green ball of light gravitating around me with some flies.

I've tried the cureall, even while disabling USKP, but it didn't work.

This particular problem just started for me. I'm not sure exactly when it started, but I thought it must be the wispmother thing, since I had just recently killed a wispmother. But, I tried the fix on page 1, and it didn't work at all. My particular "aura" is also not conducive to the pictures of any of the ones that I've seen here. Links to pictures posted below.

It may not be relevant, but the aura goes away completely when my character is running. It also makes a low hissing noise while it's present. I think it also makes a sparkling, jingling sound. It also caused the game to crash when I tried to fast travel; I would arrive at my destination, but when I tried to save in any way (autosave or manually) the game just closed (didn't freeze or anything). Any help is much appreciated. You guys are the best!

That is most definitely the Wispmother effect.

That sort of looks like the spriggan swarm effect.

Edit

Just realized it has the same weird crustals in between legs like

vitalikenergy's problem. I assume it's the same thing?

Anyone knows what is this purple aura with white wisps like things?

The cureall didn't work, so I thought I should ask.

There's this peculiar pair of crystals? underneath the character as well.

I have the same aura.

I succeeded remove the aura using the plugin "directors tools" (read comments how to install correct. Or see video.)

But the two points under the feet are not removed: (

 

I also found the name of this aura in the Visual Effects FX

called FXDragonPriestParticleEffect

 

May by need a script to remove this effect completely. I've tried different scripts of the topic, but one does not work.

NOTE: if you use USKP and are sure you have the right spell ID but the fix isn't working, try deactivating USKP first, then apply the fix, save and quit, then reactivate USKP. USKP changes some scripts to try to prevent certain effects being applied to the player, but unfortunately these scripts may block the addspell/removespell trick from working.

As annoying as this issue of "draugr eyes" etc may be, DO NOT follow this advice. Removing a mod with as many script heavy dependencies as the USKP carries (or any other large script heavy mod) is a sure way to ruin your save permanently. You cannot simply remove it and later reapply it and have everything come out fine. It won't. You'll be left with all manner of strange bugs and unexpected behavior you won't be able to track down. Yes, this includes mystery CTDs that people have begun trying to pin on us having caused.

 

This is not Oblivion or the Fallout games. Skyrim does not handle this kind of situation properly and likely never will since Bethesda has said this is how the game was designed to work.

 

Unfortunately this step is necessary because the USKP scripts have code like this:

 

Event OnEffectFinish(Actor akTarget, Actor akCaster)

 

If selfRef == Game.GetPlayer()

return

EndIf

 

IceWraithParticles01.Stop(selfRef)

selfRef.unEquipItem(SkinIceWraithSmokeFins)

FXIceWraith2ndFormEffect.Stop(selfRef)

ENDEVENT

which blocks the unwanted visual effects from being removed from the player when the magic effect finishes. Some scripts don't even have an OnEffectFinish event to remove the visuals at all. This is an issue which could easily be rectified in USKP.
