My character goes blind

the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim

I am level 48 and after a few in-game hours, my character goes completely blind! I can still see the compass bar and the cursor, I can do shouts, attack, etc. However, all I can see is pure darkness.

It happens as if you transforming back from or to werewolf form. So, the vision goes blurry for a split second, and before you know it, it fades into complete darkness.

I have tried loading from another file, a different character, I have tried uninstalling the game, removing all mods and ESP files from the data folder, re-installing, but nothing helps…

Anyone had this issue before?

I recommend trying the following:

  • Reinstall all mods that could be even remotely related (if you have any)
  • Just wait a few minutes. The game could resolve it by itself
  • Look for a mod on the Nexus to patch it
  • A fresh save. I know you're level 48, but it might be worth creating a new save just to test if it's a problem with the save or with your game
  • Make your own mod with the Creation Kit. The game engine uses several classes of effects when performing an action like turning you into a werewolf. I would look for the MagicEffect involved and disabling any particle effects or visual effects inside

If none of these work, then I don't know what will.
