I was disappointed to find that, even with the patch, certain NPCs still won't wear the armour I want them to wear.

Poo.

NPCs? Or followers?

Followers, even.

Specifically the ones who favour heavy armour and thus will not wear the super-duper (but light) armour I keep trying to give them. Minor thing, but...grrr.

Well, Followers who don't behave exactly as you wish aren't really a "bug". That's their AI at work, and I think we should be rejoicing that they possess some individuality and rudimentary decision-making abilities. The game would be mighty dreadful if Followers were simply 100% compliant drones.

Hey, if I'm paying these toe-rags good money to follow me about I expect them to wear the uniform provided!

Maybe it happened in an older patch but did they mess with the value system? I made some improved gear cause with 1.9 I buffed the heck out of my alchemy. I was replacing this gear and noticed my older gear was worth more gold. It was identical in every way except the enchantments were stronger but the item was worth less. Weird.

That's an issue that has been in the game since version 1.0. The stronger the enchantment, the lower its value. Doesn't make sense at all, but that's the way it's always been.

Really? I never noticed it before. Not that it matter i got like 511k and nothing to spend it on but it's still weird. Oh and since downloading 1.9 my loading screens are freezing up alot. Anyone else having that?

I can't say I've had Loading Screen freezes since 1.9, but I'm experiencing moderately frequent freezes during ordinary gameplay in outdoor cells. And Random Encounters have been getting a bit weird since 1.9. For example, I had the encounter with those three fake "Soldiers", and a three-man Imperial patrol spawned at the same location at the same time. The Imperials knelt down to inspect one of the naked corpses, and then simply vanished.

I still keep finding patches of invisible water>_< rivers are such jerks..

You guys think we've seen the last of patches with 1.9?

To be honest, I wouldn't think so.
Doesn't Beth stop creating patches when the GOTY Editions come out?

Probably a 2.0 patch out, maybe even adding one or two new final features, as a thank you to Bethesda's fans.

Guess that would be welcome.

Just wondering: does anyone know if one of the last patches made certain npcs immortal? I noticed Onmund won't die at all and I haven't made him essential via the console. My character even went all out trying to kill him (I was curious to see if he would at all) and he stayed solid. I don't remember this ever being the case before.

I really have no idea. They maybe did for some quests, like Onmund's (which you probably did), but I couldn't tell you. I would try making a new save and trying to kill him on it, to make sure there isn't anything messing with him other than the patch.

I heard the latest patch caused frequent crashing.
That true?
