when I sit down somewhere with my character cannot get up again? is there a patch for that or is something else going on? I've tried this several times in different places and the same thing happens
Have you complete the Knights of The Nine DLC? I believe their is a glitch very similar to what you are describing.
:
Spoiler:
After returning to the Priory from the final battle with Umaril,
the player may encounter a bug where they lose the ability to sit; either no sitting animation plays and the player appears to be standing but can't move, or the player sits on nothing beside the chair/bench. The cause of this is an idle animation with bad conditions that "sticks" to the player. There is no known way of fixing this with console commands, but it may go away by itself after extended gameplay when many other animations have been applied to the player.
The player is required to sit at the beginning of the Shivering Isles expansion, but the game recognizes when the player is seated even though it does not appear visually.
The player is also required to sit at the end of the quest The Ultimate Heist. This bug can make it possible for the cutscene to freeze at this point and therefore the player never receives the scroll. The bug also changes the way vampires feed because they are standing up and there is no animation but the message still goes on. This might halt the Main quest.
There is a workaround though; Switch the view to 1st person and attempt to sit. The view will change to 3rd person. Do not press any button. The view will then switch back to 1st person after about 10 seconds and you will be "sitting". When you get up, the view will switch to 3rd person. Wait for the view to switch back and you will have successfully sat down.
PC Only: This bug is fixed by the Unofficial Oblivion DLC Patches.
no, I haven't gotten into that yet. i'm guessing i'll just have to remember never to sit down anywhere during the game. my character's legs will sure get tired. lol
