Irritating polymorph bug

Remove all ads!

I'm having some amazingly infuriating problems involving a polymorphed protagonist.

Pretty much, whenever I have my protagonist polymorph into anything, there's some kind of problem where he's continually trying to do something, only I'm not sure what it is. The net result is that it screws up (interrupts) his pathing and various other actions to boot, including attacking.

When he's standing still, he'll constantly switch to the 'action' stance instead of the idle stance. When he's walking, the same damn thing happens! He'll switch from the walking animation to the action animation and begin to slide along the ground like an idiot.

I was prepared to deal with it before by just not ever polymorphing, but now I've gotten to Ust Natha and I'm realising it's affecting him when he's morphed into a drow, too. It doesn't affect other party members, only him. Anyone got any ideas? Or is there anywhere else I can find help with this?

Cheers.

 

Well, I can't help you myself, but I can re-direct you to weimers Ease-of-Use mod, which has a component that disables the polymorphing into drows in Underdark (though you may know this already). That might solve the current problem (though you'll still be restricted from polymorphing in the future). I'm sorry that I couldn't help you more than this.

 

Try CTRL+Ring your character, this will cancel all effects on him, hopefully finishing the polymorphing sequence as well. It is weird though.

 

I figured it out on a complete and utter fluke. It was my regeneration.

What the crap? I never noticed this before now... can someone else check whether having regeneration active makes their characters pause repeatedly whilst polymorphed?

 

It is a known issue with the game.

 

Thanks, Andyr.

 

Oh, so that's what was messing up my iron golem shapeshifted attacks. Wouldn't work for anything and kept backing up in a fight and erg .. that was frustrating. Ended up SK'ing the spell out of my sorc's book for something else. Now I can go play around with it some more. Still annoying that I'd have to remove that equipment (gaxx and ioun stone).
