Crashing while in Whiterun Hold


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey guys, I really need some help. I don't know what's wrong with my game, it always crash when I go into the Whiterun Hold. The city itself is no problem, I can coc myself in there and nothing goes wrong. It goes wrong when I go out of Whiterun or walking from Riverwood to Whiterun. As soon as I ran into the Honningbrew Meadery, my game crashed. I sorted my load order using LOOT and I use Mod Organizer to mod my game. Here's my load order:

Hopefully you guys can help me, I'm so stressed that all my work in modding the game is halted by these crashes.

Posted

The most obvious issue is running many heavy scripted mods and being near the mod limit. You can reduce the amount of esps by using the SLAL version of More Nasty Critters.

https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/4130-more-nasty-critters-slal-edition/ You do not need the SexLabNudeCreatures esps if you use it.

 

Realistic Ragdolls is now included in XPMSE.

 

The follower Neisa may be causing many of your crashes. She uses 8k textures and has issues with her nifs pointed at wrong paths.

 

Use Crash Fixes. Make sure to set UseOSAllocators=1 in its CrashFixPlugin.ini. Crash Fixes requires  SKSE Plugin Preloader to work. Install both manually.

I'm already using Crash Fixes and it's set up like what you have mentioned. I will try to install the SLAL edition of MNC and see how it does.

 

Seems like it, there are a lot of problems mentioned by others about Neisa. But I did find someone making a fix for her, so might try that.

 

By the way, do you have any experience with the Buxom Wench Yuriana mod? I want to use that but I always crash when getting into the caves that have the wenches. I'm using a 2K replacer that one modder made to reduce issues with her. Any ideas?

I use the Yuriana mod myself and have had no issues with her nor any issues with the wenches and dungeons. Its probably a mod compatibility issue. It might be heavily conflicting with Ultimate NPC Overhaul, which I don't use but thats the only one I can see in your load order that might be the cause. It might have something with the way that the Yuriana mod adds the extra wenches. It seems to add some, but also replace some vanilla bandit types. You'd have to clarify that in the Ultimate NPC/Yuriana comments probably.

Ah I see. Maybe I'll try it out again. Without Ultimate NPC. Thanks for your help. I'm getting discouraged because I can't even play a proper game without crashing here and there.

I deactivated Yuriana and Ultimate NPC overhaul, the game still crashes when I enter the Whiterun hold. This is so frustrating.

If you are not already, use ENBoost

http://wiki.step-project.com/ENBoost

 

7  7     Skyrim Project Optimization - Full Version.esm

Get rid of this, it hasn't been updated in 4 years. If you have 8GB of RAM and 4GB of VRAM then you don't need it and if you haven't then you need to get rid of a lot of your mods.

 

You have several old or outdated mods there but what you do have is a shed load of mods which add extra NPCs to the game. You would need some serious hardware to cope with this. Have you tried going anywhere else which is busy such as Solitude or Riften during the day?

You could half that mod list and have a better looking, more stable game.

There is a new game and the crash is near the Pelagia Farm?


Do a test:
Spawn the companions to you and a giant.
(Farkas, Aela and the other)

 

Maybe a problem with these NPCs (skeleton etc.)
And as mentioned above: Less is more - mods

Less Intrusive HUD and Widget mod are for Customizable UI replacer so that is why I put it in my load order. Based on what you said, I removed the Populated mods, the custom races and SPO. I'm gonna see if it helps and then I'll get back to you. The hairs are needed by some of the NPC overhauls.

Not try solve a CTD with 222 mods. Remove half of your mods and try with 111. If get CTD make half again.

When get a stable point slowly start install more mod's, never more that 5 at the same time, and test it, all five and the CTD point.

 

As say Grey Cloudm: If you are not already, use ENBoost http://wiki.step-project.com/ENBoost

I recomend install Crash Fixes 12 with SKSE Plugin Preloader for use "UseOSAllocators=1".

And revise your skyrim.ini and skyrimpref.ini. Use BethINI if  not know make it manually.

 

I have near 200 mods and move 12 or 14 moded followers with me. If i remove ENBoost or Crash Fixes or "UseOSAllocators=1" my game make CTD. I test it. Note that i not have a super machine, only an old i5 4460 with gtx660 2g.

I already have ENBoost, Crash Fixes with that UseOSAllocators set properly, I just had done the BethINI and will see how it looks. 


And I will try your first mentioned method.

How many races do you need installed at once? How many follower mods? How many armour, clothing

or weapon mods?

 

You could half that mod list and have a better looking, more stable game.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seems like after I removed the Populated mods and the kinky animal stuffs, I seem to not crash while going into the Whiterun Hold. My guess would be either of those are mucking up the game for me. I guess I went overboard with modding.

That area is a notorious CTD hotspot, and when I was suffering the same problem my googling turned up running out of VRAM as the most likely cause. Personally, I removed fair skin complexion, went back to my old mix of mature skin/SG renewal, and never had a crash there again. There's just a lot of stuff that gets loaded in at once in that zone. I don't think fair skin itself was to blame (enough people use it without problems that it's obviously ok) but it was just the straw that broke the camel's back for me.

 

So my advice would be to cut down on the number and quality of texture mods you use, and think about using something like optimised vanilla textures. Worked for me at least.

I was using Demoniac texture but I'm using the 2k ones, maybe it does have a problem too.

There are a few spots around the map which are notorious for crashing. I consider them as weak spots - places where an overloaded game will cause a break. This is why it is never the same mod or combination of mods which 'cause' the problem - it is more 'the straw which broke the camel's back'.

Counter-measures can be taken, such as cutting down on the number of mods; removing mods which affect that particular area; reducing texture quality etc.

 

Using ENBoost, CrashFixes and Bethini will reduce the number of CTD's dramatically.  I don't know why I didn't recommend the latter two as I use them myself.

The 'binary chop' method (halving your mod list) is good for pinpointing a problematic mod but usually the problem lies elsewhere. Most of the 'bad' mods have been rooted out by now.

 

When it comes to mod choice there are several things that can be done to minimise the chance of later problems. In no particular order:

1. Look at the mod's upload date - how old is it? Look at the 'last updated' date - is it still being maintained? How many downloads/endorsements?

2. Look at the support thread - is it busy with complaints and problems?

3. Always read the description paying attention to any requirements. Try to avoid mods which require other mods or patches in order to function. Required mods and patches can soon bump up your load order and it is very easy to forget about them if you eventually uninstall the original mod.

4. Get to know the mods - what mods there are; what they do, etc. A lot of the time it is possible to find one mod which fulfills the role of two others.

5. Use 'Follow' or 'Track' to keep your mods up to date. Don't rush to install the latest version - give them a few days in case any issues crop up. Let others discover the problems. :naughty:

6. Know your system - its capabilities and its limits. See Genio's comment in post #11, last paragraph.
