I spent 20 minutes yesterday filling a lovely silver bowl with about 30 different gems. The entire time the bowl was shaking about, and it only increase with each gem. By about the 25th gem, it lost it completely and flipped over, and my gems all went behind the cabinet it was sitting on. Wasn't happy :(

I think for the Mannequins they just copied/pasted the basic script that has been around since the Morrowind days (I remember doing a mannequin mod myself for Morrowind which also let the player change the six of the mannequin so that both armor types could be displayed - something that Skyrim still hasn't!). Basically, the mannequin is a live actor whose behavior AI is deactivated immediately once the player enters the cell so this "mannequin-NPC" stays frozen in place. Small movements are possible and likely to occur.

PS: anybody tried to see if mannequins can report crimes? LOL! :D


That explanation creeped me out... I'm not sure I want to be alone with my mannequins anymore.

After spending a hour lining up Gold ingots along a wall (corner to corner) I placed a new ingot on top of the finished line and it slid through the wall. I tried again, then again, and again. I tried using another object to create a 'wall' and wasted more of my life away trying to place them that way, I gave up after a while and went out to try and kill all of whiterun.

I come back the next day (After using god mod to sit and surrender to Whiterun guards for 30minutes) and my wife tells me I dropped something. . . All of those gold ingots. . .

I believe this is called "complexity" and why Morrowind is superior to any other game in the universe.

Har har. Nobody is claiming that is what is complex about Morrowind, it's just a humorous glitch due to the lack of a physics engine.

So, the mannequins are like the toys from Toy Story?
Creepy things happen behind Skyrim.


Entered in my house yesterday and found a place was torn apart like a tornado has past there.
And a whiterun folk moving out.
Those bastards, bet they enter in your house and do a "pit boy party" to have fun with us.
