'sizzling' sound coming from my character

Post » Mon May 28, 2012 2:16 am

My character, while not actually on fire, is making a sizzling sound, not unlike a fire cooking. I've tried unequipping all my gear (beggars still asking my naked self for money) and its still there. Louder when in 1st person mode. Is this new? and how do I stop it?

The sound is tied to a particle effect (shock I believe). Other players have reported the sound being tied to a particular weapon with shock damage that gave off the sound. Try removing weapons that might have that description from your inventory (not just unequip, completely remove) and see if that makes a difference. It also could be residual from a spell effect, which you could try casting again to negate the loop.

I currently have a similar sound issue that I've not been able to resolve. It only happens on game load though, and lasts about 1 second, almost like it's the last 1 - 1.5 seconds of some sizzle sound (like mentioned above).

Things I've tried:
- removed all items from inventory. I actually dumped everything that I could into one of the chests in Breezehome, then exited the home, saved and then exited the game. No change.
- sixchange console command. No change.
- as a long shot, went to the temple and got cleansed, but no luck.

Is your character female and is she hot? Could be the engine complimenting your character.

LoL random effects have been reported to stick to players....steam, this fizzle, someone is even just straight invisible for life(it seems) and without any cool stealth benefits.

ugh. Its so annoying - it very light but it seems like all I can hear. Hopefully the next patch will clear it up. I'm actually going to take a break from the game until its fixed or I have to restart (shudder)
