Hi guys,

After naively turning on/off a Vivec-related mod a couple of times, I'm left with NPCs in the vanilla game who exist in "threes". This wouldn't be such a problem just for the lack of immersion, but it's having a massive hit on my FPS.

Is there any way to remove these NPCs using the console? Or using the CS (I haven't used the CS before...) I disabled all my mods using Wrye Mash but the duplicated NPCs still remain

I Googled this but came up with nothing worthwhile, my apologies if this is a common problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Go into the console, click on one and type "disable" (without the quotes). If it works like Oblivion, they should disappear.

Excellent, thank you very much!

I'll give this a go once I get home

get wyre mash and repair your savegame. it's a lot easier and less time consuming.

Yes, use Wrye Mash, and regularly! Deleting stuff through the console is a quick fix but doesn't correct the underlying problems that cause the duplication. Wrye Mash does fix those and gets ride of the duplicates too.

Oh I'll use Wrye Mash then!
I'm already using it so it should be a breeze

I'm assuming it's: Saves Tab > Right click on save > Repair ???

I'm sure I'll figure out how to do it.

Thanks guys you've all been a great help!
Many thanks!
