I truly don't care where my character's sword is, but I want the NPCs to have the sword on back. If the fix is not possible, I have another idea, but I don't imagine how to do this. If i remove the animations, AutoPV works fine. There was no sound for the animation and my AutoPV didn't go back to 3rd person view when I unequiped my sword. The animation does look stupid from first person BUT the glitch was gone. I took the 1st person animations and replaced the one handed to look like you equip a two handed sword. I went ingame, it looked exactly like with the "1h sword on back animation" option ticked in XPS32 skeleton. I unpacked the Skyrim animations BSA and took the two handed sword equip/uneqip animations and replaced the one handed animations. I tried installing "Pretty Combat Idles" (it has the sheath animations too) - had the same glitch. I reinstalled the skeleton with the animation - the glitch appeared again.

I reinstalled the skeleton BUT with no animation (my sword is still on back but the animation is default from hip) and everything worked fine. I don't use custom weapon mods, Dual Sheath Redux and any other mods that affect the sheath animation. I ran FNIS but it didn't help (it's updated to the last version). AutoPV is not the reason because I had this glitch a long time before I had installed AutoPV. It happens ONLY with the one handed sword equiped and only to me, NPCs are okay. Then, after a few seconds, when you click the attack button several times, the sheath animation plays again and voila! You can attack, unequip your weapon, AutoPV switches to 1st person and everything is fine. Also my AutoPV doesn't go to the 1st person view. The animation plays, you have the swords equiped, but you can't attack and can't unequip you weapon. It looked nice but then I noticed this bug - sometimes when you try to sheath your weapon it kinda gets stuck. I installed XPS32 Maximum Skeleton Extended and there was an option for the one handed sword on back + an option for the equip/unequip animation, so it would look like u take it from your back, not hip (looks like 2 handed).
