Some NPCs are just naked animationless torsos.

I picked up an old save after not playing for a month or so, and since then these NPC issues have begun cropping up: one or two per dungeon, which is weird, because you'd think they would either all work or none at all.

 

Basically they're just as you can see in the image. They have no animation whatsoever: they move without any manner of walking animation, they fuck completely still, they don't even flop down when I kill them (nor leave bodies). So far it's happened to a small number of bandits, as well as one dremora - even though the three completely identical dremora near him worked just fine. I have no idea what mod could be causing this, or why only now.

 

Anyone had something similar happen?

one that with obis start the game

came back to honor the new king

missing mods warning he ignored

lots of suprises he had

game spawn bandit x, template y

bandit x don't have any head, armor, weapon... he was supposed to get that from whatever is pick from template y

game pick npc z from template y, there's no more npc z, result is your screen

That might fit my case: I had OBIS at one point but it was too heavy and crash-prone so I ditched it.
