Massive lag spikes that occur when I travel through load doors.


Recommended Posts

I'm having a problem when I traverse though load doors that causes my game to lockup but not crash. My system resource utilization spikes but I've no idea what the cause could be.

If I leave it load for 60-120 seconds I reach the otherside of the load door but my game is like a powerpoint presentation, I've also observed that sometimes the textures glitch out on the other side and become what I can only describe as blotches of textures.
All this can be fixed by loading my save game from the autosave and everything works as intended. But naturally this is becoming a nuisance.

 

I'm using an ENB but I don't think that's the cause as my game is running at a constant 60+ fps but the lag spike is like a light switch it just comes from nowhere.
I'm certain that my system isn't the problem either, it can't be poor load times as I'm using an M.2 drive.

 

I've noticed that when open a menu like the pause menu or open the console I get all my FPS back. I've tried commands like smp reset but nothing works.

 

Any insight into why this would occur would be greatly appreciated.

A bit of detail on which mods you are running would help, otherwise how can anyone advise you? It does sound like it could be an smp thing though.

Edit: did you try the "pcb" console command? Purge Cell buffer.

Can;t say that it *is* your issue, but the last time I encountered that was when I was still new to Skyrim (around mid May 2019) and naively had some LE mods installed that I shouldn't have had installed. They worked, but they broke things. Among the breakage was cell-transition times, which matched your reported delays.

I had something like that, most often on the countryside after running for a long time. I also had the normal lag in cities.

I got tired of it so purged my modlist of unnecessarily heavy scripted mods (like all the mods that change clothes on npcs when it rains, footprints in the snow, devious helpless etc).

That took care of the most of the lock ups and massive spikes.

 

I also took my game down from 4k resolution to 1080p.

This worked for me.

 

Only after that did I add back some heavy mods again.

 

Try running this to see if it is script lag: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/24124
