Unusual polymorph/regeneration stutter bug

[Guest Prine]

Hi folks,

 

I've had a recurring problem involving my characters developing stutters when polymorphed, and lately I've been trying to figure it out. From what I can tell, it's almost certainly being caused by regeneration; my polymorphed characters will just pause momentarily and/or abruptly change animation mid-walk any time a regeneration tick goes off. The drow transformation also suffers in much the same way, and it's unavoidable when shapechanging into a troll or greater wolfwere.

 

I don't remember this ever happening before, though. I'm fairly certain I was able to do this sort of thing without the stutter bug when I tried it in the past. Does anyone else have this problem, or a theory on what might be causing it if it's just me? The game I'm testing this on is just a basic patched TOB with Baldurdash installed, plus a few tidbits that shouldn't really affect anything (custom BAMs and the like). Removing recent additions from override doesn't seem to change anything, either.

 

Cheers.

Yes, this bug has been observed a lot of times, such that Ease-of-Use includes a component to remove the drow transformation to avoid it.

So it's definitely the regeneration, and my game isn't hosed?

Right.

Okay, cool. Relieving, even if it does mean it can't be fixed. Thanks for the prompt reply.
