AwfulArchdemon Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 I can't ride the dragon properly when I get through the "Black Book" missions in DB. I need to track down Miirak via dragon, it seems, but when I climb on his back, he takes off without me! I maintain the "sitting on a dragon" animation, and my body will turn right and left as the dragon does while he's flying, AND I can target lock onto my summoned atronachs and have the dragon atack them (just for fun), but I will always remain there, hovering just above the stage's platform in a sitting position while the dragon flies away, and returns after about a minute in attack mode again. I then drop back to my feet, and am able to cast "bend will" on him to try again, with the same results. How can I (you) fix it? I am using a Redgaurd, but I tried with Children of the Sky race too, with the same results.
AwfulArchdemon Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 Are you using an older version of FNIS ? I have V3_4_1. Is a newer one out? Edit: OK. V3_5_7 downloaded and installed. I'm gonna go check it out.
AwfulArchdemon Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 Nope. That didn't change anything. Same problem.
Veta Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 That should have fixed it , did you run the FNIS generator ?
AwfulArchdemon Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 That should have fixed it , did you run the FNIS generator ? I run the generator as a natural reflex now, even when I don't need to. I've even caught myself doing it by accident before playing a different game. IE., yes, I did.
Veta Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Do you use any mod that may alter dragons ? and/or their skeleton ? I think when I had the exact same problem it was being caused by realistic skeletons . TAKEN FROM UESP When you mount a dragon you may stay still while the dragon flies off without you. The "Dragonborn.bsa" file edits the "skeleton.nif" file for dragons. Deleting any extra "skeleton.nif" file for dragons which may exist may resolve the issue. If this wont help or you dont have any "skeleton.nif" in your meshes/actors/dragon path try to remove some of .bsa from your skyrim/data path from other mods related with dragons (like FDR - Burning Skyes (100% conflict was detected)).

I had this issue many weeks before. Veta's instructions fixed it for me.
AwfulArchdemon Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 I don't have "Burning Skyes", don't know what that is, but I have "Super Sun" (requires SKSE), and the dragon transformation mod. I have skeleton.nif and underskin.nif in actors\dragon\character assets. Lots of dragon type .nifs in meshes\actors\dragon. What's my best option?
Veta Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 Unless they have compatibility with dragonborn ,you will have to uninstall it .
AwfulArchdemon Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 Ok, I'm going to go do that now... be back.
AwfulArchdemon Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 Solved!! I like the whole chase scene and the... oh, I just removed the whole dragon file,btw. I'll put it back now, I guess. I suppose anytime I wanna ride a dragon I'll have to do that again, but hell, it's good to know what was wrong. Credit: Veta---for his reminder to udate my FNIS (lol), and the dragon's skelton.nif notice. Polluxval---simply for his feedback! Not always easy to find support in forums. I like how the Dragon file can be easily removed, and put back without issue. LL is great, Steam, SUCKS! They don't answer questions (I want my CK back!)! Thank you, guys!
