Question about the sneak tree & kill animations & Eb

Post » Fri Jun 08, 2012 9:18 pm

I have a question that's kinda bugging me. For some reason when I put a perk point into the sneak tree. I am unable to preform any other kill animations. At first I thought it was putting a perk point into backstab that stopped them. But after trying it on my Warrior, I am unable to preform any other kill animation other than throat slicing from behind when it's a stealth kill. Even on my Warrior it was the same way. Is this working at intended or a bug?


Another question is there any fix for the clipping issue for the Ebony Armour in 3rd person veiw on Nord males?



Ebony Armour Pic 1 ( As you can see the helmet lines up just fine without the Armour)

Ebony Armour Pic 2 ( If you look closely you can see the hole between the neck & Armour)

Ebony Armour Pic 3 ( As you can see skin pokes through the helmet when the Armour is worn, It's because part of the Armour is skin colored instead of black like part of it around the neck Area)

Is there anyway to fix this on the PS3 Version of the game. Like changing the texture path of the skin part of the Ebony Armour around the neck to the black texture that's on the neck area?

They all sound like bugs. I'm on 360, and I've never experienced any of that (I've never played as a Nord) I'd assume that the clipping won't be fixed, those issues arn't usually high on the list. But I know how you feel about clipping, because of my hairstyle, I simply stopped wearing hoods, as they clip atrociously. (Or perhaps it's because I'm a Breton? I don't know.)

Of course I't Could be fixed though, Its just not in our hands.

I just wish I could mod the PS3 version like the PC, So I could fix it my self, by changing the texture path of the skin texture on the Ebony Armour. Why it's a skin texture instead of a black texture like the neck part of the helmet & part of the armour is black then skin color. But the Kill Animations I don't get why they stop as soon as I put a perk into sneak. Yea I like silently killing, but seeing the throat slicing over & over again & again gets old fast. I preferred stabbing them in the back. Having a perk named back stab I figured I would backstab them.

If it wasn't so much trouble making a character then lvling smithing to 80 & getting the ebony for the Armour I would test it with different races. Has anyone else experienced the clipping with the Ebony Armour on any other race with a male Character?

Wish they would allow us to access the console on the console versions to add items so we can test stuff out.
