Is anyone else's character's running animations messed up?

RSram

Since the 1.5.4 update, all of my characters, shuttle their feet when running. Is anyone else having this issue, and if so, did you put in a bug report?

Yeah, I've noticed that as well! From time to time my character has this herpderp feet-shuffling thing going on, but I usually just stop running, then start running again, and it's fixed (I've submitted an in-game report about it).

Lol I notice this after I interact with crafting of some kind. If I stop for a second or sprint it goes away. Looks horrendous tho...

tzeraphb16_ESO

Same here. But stopping for a sec seems to solve it, as mentioned by Xjcon

Sometimes your character gets lonely and it wants to jiggle its feet

lordspyder

I find jumping also solves it.

I think.the devs call it spagetti walk.

It is caused if you begin to move while you have a ui window open.

Gilvoth

yes, my character has this problem and i see many other people have it also.

Draxys

I kinda like doing the river dance all the way through the town

I made an extremely bad gif that doesn’t quite capture the true beauty of the ESO Shuffle. You can almost see how glorious it is if you have not experienced this for yourself.



You can do the shuffle every time you put on a guild tabard and then very quickly start running after you equip it.

Yes others are having it too and devs are aware.

Even though this is is small potatoes compared to the bigger bugs that ZOS has to contend with, I'm wondering like, how did fixing other issues like XP points and etc screw up the running animations?

At least the ZOS developers don't program for NASA.

I keep hoping that ESO will get through these growing pains because if it doesn't and shuts down, the resume of the programmers isn't looking too good right now.*

It seems to happen if I make some quick direction changes while running. If I am running in a straight line it seems fine. But once I change direction (using the W key and my right mouse button) it gets all wonky. Stopping or jumping does correct it.

Just wanted to add that sprinting, or momentarily stopping also fixes it.

Basically if you go to a run from some other animation (workbench, looting, etc. etc.) without returning to idle first, it mixes up the upper and lower body animations. Why? idk. But going to an idle stance for a moment (or forcing another animation like sprinting, attacking, etc.) will resolve it.

It's been doing this since release afaik. There are other interesting ways to trigger it, too - if you have a bind to enable/disable showing your hood, toggling it while moving will cause it to happen, as well.

Just being contradicting for the heck of it.

I notice it after coming out of a way shrine. Can't say it bothers me and I'm probably gonna miss it when it's gone.

AshySamurai

Don't know about release, but first I seen it on PTS pre 1.5 patch.

Belkarth at times looks like Gangnam Style :P

Not always, I've had my character jump and continue shuffling a few times, which is why I just stop now.

drschplatt

Yep, I get it dozens of times an hour. My character looks like they're suffering from explosive sharts and just crapped their pants. It makes for some nice roll playing, but nothing more.

I have noticed this as well. Looks really funny! Mine only last for about 3 sec. and goes away and dose not always happen when I run.

Heruthema

It happens to me every time I go into combat. If I tap 'run' it does go away but it is distracting.
