third person invisibility first person "grey" look b

Post » Tue Apr 15, 2014 8:48 am

Hello. I have a VERY weird bug which, as far as I am aware, is unique (I've not managed to find one like it by google).

When in third person mode, everything except my weapon (which looks normal not grey) is invisible - my body, clothes, everything.

When I am in first person mode, everything turns into a one-colour grey, hand, weapon, torch, w/e is held.

This is in place since the Bloodskall dragon priest fight in Solstheim (the one you get to during the mine quest) - a weird fog started following me and when I let it "catch" me this bug happened.

Here is the REALLY weird thing with the bug: When I use my healing spell (the most basic one), I turn back visible?! and I remain visible for either 4-5 seconds or UNTIL I draw out my weapon, at which point I sort of shimmer out into invisibility. I am -not- partially visible like with ethereal shout - if I hide my weapon I can't see me. however I can talk etc. to others normally

here are the things I tried already to do to fix it which did not work:

Used ethereal shout

used ethereal shout + fast travel

used the console command to dispell all spells

restarted skyrim

used an invisibility potion / scroll ( when I do this or the shout, I turn into that sort of "invisibility" until its duration runs out at which point I turn back 100% invisible).

This is not a gameplay affecting bug it seems (people etc. see me all okay) just visual but its HELLA annoying and quite interesting.

Anybody knows what to do ?_?

thanks in advance for yer help!

You likely have mod problems similar to your other thread.

Quite possible, but the issues don't seem related - it also doesn't seem like a problem with missing textures or anything, that (usually) is much different, for me at least - why does the healing spell 'fix' the problem for example :s

Start a new game. Does it continue to happen?

Tried it - it doesn't. saves before the fight with the dragon priest are alright too. I replayed the fight 2 times but the mist happened everytime.

Try unchecking your mods and see. DLC is fine. Load a save but dont overwrite it. See if the issue comes back.

Sometimes Magic effects stick to the PC. The most common instance is the Ice from the Ice Wraiths getting attached to your shoes. Probably happens during the rendering. In any event, the few things you can try are to remove the magic effect from your character (what ever was used to attack you) or to drop your clothing items on the ground, then pick them up again. However the only sure fire way to remove this issue is to load a save from before you got it.
