I'm having issues now.

Sometimes when I'm in the woods the wolves are invisable.I mean you can see them but they are not solid.

They are just transprantly blurry if you get what i mean

Is this a bug?
Anyone else had this?

I was attacked by an invisable wolf too. I couldn't see it but I managed to kill it by swinging my sword around like a lunatic. When it died I could see the corpse like normal though.

Is this normal?
Its happening to rats and people too and when you kill them they appear. :confused:

Was that just north of Imperial City by any chance, next to a fort?

that's where it happened to me.

I was in a fort, then came out further up a hill where I was attacked by an invisible rat and an invisible troll. The rat became visible when I killed it, but the troll killed me. :(

Same thing happened when I tried it again, but this time I ran away from the troll. Quite scary being chased by an invisible troll, I ran down the hill and dived in the lake. :D

It always reminds me of Monty Python and the Holy Grail when stuff like that happens. "Run away!!! Run away!!!....." :D

Perhaps you should return with a large wooden badger....
 
Without giving too much away, go to the "village" (it's two houses and an inn IIRC) and wait - someone invisible will approach you and talk - which triggers the quest. If no-one comes over, try inside the inn. You can also get mention of it in a Rumor from the Imperial City.

ok i need a little help here, well to be a bit more specific i'm looking for an alternative solution to this.

ok so i'm doing the dark brotherhood quests at the moment, i'm at the 2nd dead drop contract called "next of kin" if i remember correctly, i've killed all but the last one, the female guard in lewellyn(sp?, that city at the bottom of the map...), anyway i'm trying to find a way to dispose of her without alerting the guards, now i have no trouble killing her but i get a nasty 1040 bounty which i very much grudge having to pay, it just seems i cant get her in a position where she is unarmoured i.e sleeping, she sits in the upper floor one of the inns during the day for a few hours, tryed leaving a poison apple for her to eat but that has proved to be useless so far, tryed sneak attacking her but with her armour on it just aint gonna kill her in one blow, i can get into the guard tower but i dont have any invisibility spells that last long enough to find out if and when she sleeps there, but i do know she goes in there for a while.
any tips for this one?
i'd really like to avoid having to just "off" her and paying the concequences, i'm also a theives guild member but still at over 500 i'd like to avoid having to pay it.

Just got a amazing shield. I'm well chuffed

I got that last night :) Very nice shield, looks awesome with a full set of ebony/dwarvern armour :cool:

Oh, and may I recommend you download this mod? It automatically upgrades quest rewards as you level up. For example, if you got that shield at level 10-15, then without the mod, it would only give 20% reflect and +7 endurance, and would stay like that for the rest of the game, which means it gets less useful as the game goes on :(

More mods due shortly, and they've listened to critisism and lowered the price of mods.

The horse armour mod still seems a rip off though as the two upcoming mods should add more content.

According to Pete Hines (Bethesda PR guy) they are still "experiementing" with pricing.

Nice! What type of character are you? And level?

Edit: Also, whats the name of the mod that reduces the size of the text when you look at your inventory so that more items fit onto the list? I'm guessing your using that unless it's just a different resolution.
