Ash Pile!!??!

[Nichoice]

Long story short, whiterun vampire attack.

 

Everything seemed fine as I have USKP and Skyrim patched to 1.9 so the vampires and the guard's bodies disappeared. 

 

But Belathor got killed and I think somewhere in the middle the Vamp raised him and then now he is a pile of ash.

 

But it won't go away! 

 

All the other bodies and vamp ashes have disappeared but his remains. 

 

I am at work atm so I can't post a load order, but does anyone know why Belathor's ash remains? I have looted everything and his store has been taken over by Ysolda.

Consul command "MarkForDelete" and target the ash pile.

[Robton]

Console, click on the pile, write: disable, press enter.

[XJ347]

Console, click on the pile, write: disable, press enter.

 

Ohhh that's faster!

[Nergui]

 

Console, click on the pile, write: disable, press enter.

 

Ohhh that's faster!

 

 

Also not recomended. MarkForDelete is preferable as this will remove them completely. All Disable does is make it invisible, the object is still there.

 

EDIT - Something occured to me. Check the inventories of those ash piles. There may be a semi-persistant or persistant item which will prevent normal despawn. http://uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Permanent_And_Persistent_Items

Ash piles don't normally despawn anyway. They usually last forever unless you "mark for delete" the damned things.

... which is the reason why "conjure dragon priest" spells are bullshit
