Dead bodies everywhere......

Post » Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:22 am

Ok, I'm a big neat freak and one thing that pisses me off is dead bodies laying around.

I killed a dude in a Thief Guild and a week later body is still there. Is there a way to remove it?

Also what level you have to be to get max stats out of Nightingale armor?

I've wondered this too, passed the same rotting wolf corpse on a road, for a week now while questing.

I think hey stay forever. Have been playing for a long time (90 in game days) and the first bodies of people I killed out of Helgen are still there.

Don't remember where I read it, but posted several places here on the Forum it was said it takes 30 game days for bodies to go bye-bye.

That's really strange....you'd think they'd disappear or at least go away over time.

Do they just keep piling up when the caves re-spawn?

Perhaps this explains the save game decay/instability....*ponder*

I'm not having this massive body problem, but there is a pair of dragon skeletons that never disapear and go mental whenever I go to whiterun.

Im wondering if its because I go to my house in whiterun every time Ive been through a dungeon, and that somehow means bodies there never dissapear. Those boies have been there for atleast 60 gameplay hours, which is a few mounths to half a year in-game.

That defeats the purpose... I still know its there. I want them to be removed forever.

Riften has like 5 or 6 dead thief bodies around market that guards killed. Dead dragon on steps of College and so on.

I just wish they disappear forever.

I think bodies of animals, cave inhabitants, encounters disappear since they respawn. But other bodies stay. Like the guys that I killed in the Helgen keep - they are still there.

I use console to disable only dragon skeletons, since they jump around and fall from the sky in various places.

I killed a dragon in Riverwood, and the skeleton lies on the ground flapping its bone wings.

A real NPC would probably bury his wife, mother, dog, horse, farm hand.

I killed a dragon and some Imperials suffered a little friendly fire. I fast traveled home to dump some loot and went right back to the dragon. The dragon was still there along with a dead giant, but the Imperials were gone. I did not get to properly loot their corpses/

Some disappears, some not. I killed some bandit with the help of whiterun guards, near the bridge which leads to Windhelm, and when I went there, like 1 week ingame, they weren′t there anymore, the same with a Khajiit and others skooma dealers I always kill on the roads or some Imperials I killed. But animals stay longer I believe...

But they wouldn't be able to find them, because you hid them....

Dead dragons.

SO MUCH dead dragons.

I too have a dragon corpse blocking the entry to the college.

It did not die there, but it got teleported there when I quick-travelled.

They do disappear ala respawn timer. But it's really long. I still don't know what the correct amount of days is.
