Randomly entering swimming animation

[Michelle]

Whenever I'm walking, my character will enter the swimming animation even though I'm on dry land. It takes me out of sneak and generally interrupts battles by making me unable to attack because it thinks I'm in water when I'm not.

I have no idea what's causing it, but it is very annoying and impacts gameplay a lot.

Please help if you can?

In order to get help, you'll need to list your load order (LOOT, upper right corner, click the three dots, select "copy", paste here).

It sounds like a mod issue, but without knowing what mods you have, and your load order, it is impossible to tell.

This happened to me alot and still does, the only thing that fixed it for me is forcing the game to never go above 60fps.

You can do this by multiple methods like Nvidia Control Panel (or the AMD equivalent) but I had the most success by going into my monitor settings in windows and setting it to 60hz refresh rate.

Granted I have a monitor that goes beyond 60hz so I don't know how well it would work on a system that can only output 60hz, or if the problem even exists on a 60hz system. This is just what worked for me after weeks of research and experimentation.
