An easy thing to try on the PC version

[Beerminator1]

So, I play Skyrim on X360 because my computer is too shitty to run it. Thou I play all other Bethesda games on PC. Recently I discovered this neat trick that you can do in Fallout 3 and New Vegas which allows you to freeze time with the console (pretty much everything is frozen: people, bullets, explosions, creatures...) You can move around normally, shoot and throw greneades (that explode after you unfreeze time). I tried it in Oblivion and it didn't work. Since Skyrim also has the console and lots of same commands as Fallout games, I wonder if it works in Skyrim. So if someone is nice enough to waste few minutes to try this out and tell me if it works, I would appreciate it (you dont need to download anything). Here's how you do it: 1. Open the console 2. Hold down SHIFT and press the console key again 3. You should now be able to move around normally at frozen time 4. Press the console key again to unfreeze time. If it works, you can also tell me how does it work: Can you steal stuff in front of people without getting bounty after you unfreeze time? If you kill some

one random while in frozen time, will everyone know it was you? Can you grab objects? If you shoot an arrow, will it stop in the air and when you unfreeze time continue moving? That kind of stuff...

Didn't work for me.

 

The left shift keys toggles the run/walk for my PC so all it did was toggle my PC's speed. I opened the console, held the left shift key down and re-pressed the console and all it did was toggle my PC from walk to run. The right shift key resulted in nothing changing, it didn't freeze time anyway.

 

I have changed key actions in Skyrim to suit my preferences, so I'm not sure if the default settings would result in the time freeze.

I think Skyrim Spells and Powers by WarriorKeKe has a spell for that.
