INI MO2 crash problem


Guest

Recommended Posts

Posted

For some reason my INI files were not having an affect in-game so I assumed "Oh maybe I should delete every single one from MO2/profiles/ and /Documents/ and replace them with the INI files BethINI generates......now I cant make it past to the loading screen without an instant crash. 

 

What makes this even more frustrating is that rolling back backup or restoring INI files is not working either. 

 

 

Help

 

Pls

Hm, wouldn't the easiest solution be starting the game unmodded, directly via Steam, then copy the newly generated INI files into your modling folder?

If the game crashes in vanilla, without any mods, it's not a MO2 related problem.

Well this is exactly what I did and fortunately I was able to finally load up the screen but I had to reinstall a couple mods and I lost access to my 20 hour character which isn't too bad of a punishment I suppose.

How many inis did you delete and how many does Bethini create?

I don't suppose the deleted files are still in your Recycle Bin?

Restoring the deleted files was no longer an option. They just weren't working. 

 

To make this simple I chose the option to make my vanilla (Document) ini files priority in MO2 but again the same issue resides.

 

editing any ini files is not having an affect in-game, its almost like something is overwriting all of them.

Did you try to use this tool? I guess you don't need to tinker with INI files at all - at least, for Newrim I never had to. Not sure if I did for Skyrim last time I played it, I'm afraid. But I'm quite sure the mod will provide you with all that you need.

Sorry, I lost your point here. Let's put this into a chronic:

 

1) modded system stoped working - why? Because you tinkered the INI files?

2) deleted all INI files

3) modded system still not working

4) phase "crahs fix" started vanilla Skyrim without mods

5) phase "crahs fix": modded Skyrim working, but save files lost / crashes

6) phase "optimization": still looking for working / better INI files

 

Is that correct? Please add everything missing. And please excuse me putting you into that form :s

Skyrim is now working. 

 

But the INI files are still not taking affect in-game and I dont know why.  

 

(Edit)

BETHINI is not working either.

 Sorry for the late reply, buddy.

The game is relying on those files - meaning it uses them, but you don't know which ones. You need to fin them - if need be, search all ini files on your hard drive.

After you found them, you can alter them via Beth INI. But make a backup before you do.. or does the tool do so, anyway. Not sure.

How do you know the ini files are not taking effect? And which ini files?

I'm seeing the same thing.  I'm using MO2 with Oldrim.  Was using MO but with MO2 V2.2.1 that just game out, I decided to switch.  I noticed that the skyrim.ini file isn't having an effect in that I was changing some MAP related settings that didn't make any difference.  So since MO2 has the ability to access the virtual file system via explorer++ I looked to see what skyrim.ini and skyrimprefs.ini it was using.  Basically it was showed the vanlila ones, not the ones in the profile I was using.  When I edit in MO2 the inis, it does change the correct ones associated with the profile being used.  So first I deleted the vanilla ones in the skyrim folder, and looked via explorer++ and this time there were no skyrim.ini or skyrimprefs.ini at all.  Then I told it to use the ones in the documents my games folder, but still showed nothing with explorer++ and again, no effect on game.  Then I put my updated inis directly in the skyrim folder (skyrim.ini goes where skse and tesv executables are, and the skyrimprefs.ini when in a skyrim folder, that's where I originally found the default skyrimprefs.ini).  However, it seems the inis still have no effect.  I couldn't find anything on google about this but this thread, so thinking this most be a very uncommon issue?  Can anyone shed some light here?  Thanks so much!

 

UPDATE:  I decided to make some different ini file changes just to double check that I'm right that they aren't having an impact on the game.  So I turned off autosaves which is easy to check and turns out the ini files are being used and do have an effect on my game.  Seems the MAP setting I'm using aren't working as expected, but I'll ask about that in another thread.  My question here is why aren't the inis showing up when I use the MO2 explore virtual folder capability?  I'm wondering if perhaps that can only be used to look at the data folder, and when you go up a level to see the ini files, you are actually looking at the real hard drive, and moved out of the virtual folder all together?  I'm guessing that's it.

 

UPDATE2: I found out what was going wrong with the MAP configs as well that I original thought was due to MO2 not using any of the skyrim.ini files...  Turns out it was a known problem between the Bashed patch and MAPs, which is addressed here:

 

https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/5438997-map-invisible-need-help-all-fixes-are-outdated/?p=63166776

 

Basically the fix that worked for me was to rebuild the Bashed Patch, 0.esp and uncheck the 'Import Cells' item in the second pop-up.
