Floating arms in first person??

[Sunsetter]

I have problem when I look down, my character's arms aren't moving with the camera anymore (like they used to) causing them to be cut off near the edgde of the screen. Only happens in fps, and no, I didn't change any mods when this happened.

Any ideas?

Bad, corrupted, wrongly-installed, incompatible, and/or outdated mods. Doesn't matter if 'it worked just fine' for a long time, sounds like the player skeleton is messed up in first person. No clue if/why, though.

Do older saves have the same problem?

Can we see a screenshot please?

Here's a screen:

Loading an older save file seems to have fixed it though, but if you know what could be the cause, do share.

Honestly sounded like something was done with the FoV wrong or that you unknowingly installed enhanced camera or immserive camera incorrectly, but if it's fixed now I suppose it doesn't matter.

Not a clue. Some mod must've messed up the arms of the player model scripting for the save or something... Might happen again, might not. Your guess is better than mine.

I did install customizable camera mod, but that was much earlier, it's been working fine after that + the older save that works also had the camera installed, so I think it's not the mod. I could be wrong though :S

I know it has been about 6 years lmao but in case anyone who comes across this thread in the future (as I did) is curious - This is most definitely due to first person camera mod issues. Sometimes loading an earlier save won't fix, especially if you have had the mod a long time.

For me, I found a simple fix - open the console with ~ and type "setrace (any race other than your own, i.e darkelf, redguard, etc.)" and then type "setrace (your original race)". This will reset the characters physical appearance in it's entirety and fix the floating arm issue.

I'm sure there is a better way to explain it but this is the best I can do!

Damn bro, talk about thread resurrection XD
Thanks for the solution though.

Thank you, I struggle with this for days, you have given the only reliable solution.

This did not work for me. My issue is when I unsheathe my weapons/magic and stand still my arms go downward out of the screen and my body is forced upward past my camera. My perspective doesn't change but my weapon swings and magic follow my limbs that are out of sight.

I thank you so much for this. I was minutes away from giving up, felt like I had tried everything. This fixed it right away. You're a good person!
