Double-Face bug appearing on all NPCs

Post » Wed Mar 30, 2011 4:16 am

Hey there,

so I've decided to play some Oblivion again after those years.

I've downloaded the mods, compatiblity patches, sorted it out in Wrye Bash and started playing.
But now I've noticed that the NPCs (especially when they are in full light) started suffering from the double-face bug like http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/4003/screenshot0ex.jpg or http://i51.tinypic.com/169hls3.jpg.

I seriously have no idea what causes it. Tried fiddling with the load order, disabling/enabling stuff but I just can't track the bugger down. :cryvaultboy:

Here's my load order:

Are you using Self Shadows, perchance?

Yes I am. And yes turning that off solved the problem it seems.
Weird, in my 4 years of Oblivion gaming I never got this issue with self shadows on.. :unsure2:

In any case, thanks a million! :goodjob:
