Werewolf glitch (Bethesda please look into this)

Post » Sun Jun 24, 2012 8:03 pm

I cant remember the name of the quest but in the quest that you get the cursed ring of hericin there is a glitch If you have a random werewolf transformation on a horse (mine was on shadowmere)


it will show the hero jump off the horse after transformation but then the camera stays where your horse is but your hero can run in the background

very weird bug so i took a save of that and tried to reload but the same issue so I eventually reloaded a save from prior and didnt take a horse




I hope i explained it well enough

This should be tested with

1 add quest for hericins cursed ring
2 get on horse
3 wait for a random transformation

player should not replicate this glitch
Please wait for a patch that fixes it


USE AT YOUR OWN RISK


Bethesda Please make it impossible to transform while on horse and it should fix this problem

As of now the game allows it but at the cost of this glitch

I've never, ever had Hircine's Cursed Ring bring about a transformation.
I even had a werewolf character wear the piece of junk for three or for months, & nothing. I'm quite peeved with it.

I have however had the ring keep me from transforming for days at a time.

It's just rather prone to glitches I think.

Huh, well I dunno. Because literally months in game, wearing that ring. And never once did I have a forced transformation.
But, half the time when I tried to transform it would tell me I can "only use my powers once a day" even when I hadn't shifted into a werewolf in a week or so.

I had the Ring transform me right when i was fighting a group of Giants and Mammoths when i was heading out to kill the Sacred Beast. Not fun being stuck in squishy Werewolf transformation and unable to dodge when a Giant is smashing down with his club.

An official fix for this would be good. The first time I heard of this glitch was with the Tales of Lycanthropy mod where someone transformed while on horseback. It sounds to me that it is an issue where the camera doesn't properly switch over to your character upon dismounting. It doesn't sound like it would be too hard to fix. They finally quashed that Navmesh bug that had been plaguing mods since Fallout 3, so anything is possible.

Yeah it really wouldnt be that hard to fix
In the database of things like this there is a primary camera setting and a secondary camera primary is the main character and secondary is the horse /car or plane whatever kind of game you play

all that needs to be done is in the DB under secondary cam needs to have a pre requirment of human form and on the ring of hericin this would need a pre requirement that transfromation only happen when in human form and on foot

this would stop the ring from being able to send the command to the player while on horse back

Another fix would just be to allow wolf form on horse

to fix this just add the wolf graphic to the acceptable images on horse
then the game should treat it as a human image like it already does
however some restaraint to the werewolf so he naturally has to dismount himself
camera then should follow him and not stay with horse



to me it just seems that the code breaks at the transformation and the game has a brain fart
maybe something that was overlooked and wasnt finnished before release and since maybe they have not heard much about this

Also if they ever want to add flight into skyrim which they probly wont they will need to fix this because noone wants to fall hundreds of feet as a partial werewolf
