When out running around Skyrim or in dungeons, I occasionally run into creatures (trolls, goats, bears and once skeletons) that aren't animating at all, and instead are floating around as if the game loaded their meshes but forgot to load their animations (trolls and bears floating with their arms wide open). These creatures aren't lootable when killed, and the issue goes away if I quit the game to desktop and reload my save. Sometimes the offending creature isn't there afterwards, other times they are simply animating normally.

This is something that popped up for me post 1.7 because I didn't have them before that, but if you follow Gopher's youtube channel you may have seen the same issue happening for him pre-1.7.

I don't know what the cause is, and I haven't really added any new mods between 1.7's release and when I first started seeing this issue.

If anyone knows whether this is a known issue with a particular mod or a 1.7 issue let me know.
