Nathala Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 I recently made the jump to Special Edition after playing Legendary Edition for a few years. On LE, I used a suite of 2k textures, high poly meshes, a handful of heavy scripted mods such as Mortal Weapons and Armors, Deviously Cursed Loot, Hot and Sweaty, and a few more alongside a lot of smaller scripted mods. Apart from the expected CTD every now and then, it was stable enough to play comfortably. Now, in Special Edition, with roughly the same load order, I can't even get through the door. Literally. The only issue keeping me from starting a new playthrough is infinite loading screens. I wouldn't even call them infinite loading screens, since the game goes into "not responding" mode and leaves me on a black screen with the ambient sounds of the interior playing. This either happens after an hour of going in and out of interiors with very few scripted SexLab mods, or instantly with my preferred load order, making this very time consuming and inconsistent to test. All my searches for solutions have told me "the game is running out of memory" and to download SSE Engine Fixes, which I have had installed since the beginning of my SE modding. I've played around in the .toml file, switching some settings from true to false or false to true, but nothing I've tried so far has helped. I've also been told to uncomment the "[Memory]" section in SKSE.ini, which I have, and have the values set to "DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB=768" and ScrapHeapSizeMB=256." I've also tried setting "DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB=1024" but neither value has helped. Can this value go higher? Does it cause instability? My next attempt to fix it was to completely reinstall Skyrim SE from Steam and reinstall my ENB, SSE Engine Fixes (parts 1 and 2), and reconsider everything in my load order. No dice. I achieved some momentary success after refreshing my .inis with BethINI, allowing me to enter and exit interiors as I pleased for well over an hour and a half. Naively thinking I had solved the problem I installed my preferred load order, configured all my MCM setting, and set off on a new adventure. I ran around the overworld for a bit, found a neat little trap door, and entered hoping for the best. as you can probably tell from the existence of my thread here, I was immediately faced with an infinite loading screen, exactly as I had faced many times before. I'm at my wits end now, and will probably go back to LE if I can't fix this with what I learn from this thread. What appears to be causing the ILSs? Is Skyrim SE running out of memory? How do I give it more memory to play with? Is there something I haven't tried yet? Do I need to configure SSE Fixes differently? You can find some posts I made about this issue on the "Should I switch from oldrim to SE" thread starting here. You'll find my load order below. There are a lot of ESL patches and a handful of merges. If you want to know what is in the merges, let me know. I heard from another user that I have too many patches, but trying playthroughs with none, to some, to all of the patches has not helped. I do have a handful of location altering mods as well, but it does not matter which kinds of interiors I enter, modded or vanilla. Thanks for reading and for any help in advance!

mouton18 Posted March 5, 2021 Posted March 5, 2021 Can I see your Xedit after you set the filter to show errors please, just to see how many are affected, infinite loading screen other from a SSD/HHD defect usually go down to some mod using too much juice with scripts or mismatched records in esp. I don't see any papyrus log option, or mod that could enchance it such as Papyrus Extender for SSE or PapyrusUtil SE because they are not esps. Also, there is no such thing as the Dark Face bug so the DarkFaceBugFix esp seems like easily avoidable problem. it's just an exemple of poorly stack esp or wrong doing in term of meshes/texture, this esp unless a patch for your own setup, is already something that should be removed. WIth the papyrus log we could see what's taking much of the script in between loading and in the background. That would help, if you would crash with the FrameWork DMP, we would see culprits, but infinite loadings are harder to catch, but we'll get there. I run a lot of mods and esp, mostly light, and always clearing records to green and patching my own stuff I would suggest a patch for npc and one for exterior that just forward your every change to it, keeping it below the 4096 records and flagging it esl.

Thanks for responding! I'm not sure if I applied the filter correctly, if not, let me know and I can redo it correctly. I just hit "apply filter to show conflicts" on all the mods (not the bethesda esms) and I also did a Check for Errors on all the same files. I'll put the results of both in files attached. A lot of mods are showing up as red, which is expected. It's too much for me to make any conclusions with. I do check which records are overwriting others sometimes and will do a little manual patch here or there, but only after I experience a problem in game after testing, since manually patching everything to green would be quite the task. Regarding the SSD/HDD comment, since these ILS were not present in the LE build I was using a few weeks ago I do not think my SSD is going wonky. Other games on it play just fine, as well, like Enderal. Quote I don't see any papyrus log option, or mod that could enchance it such as Papyrus Extender for SSE or PapyrusUtil SE because they are not esps. I do have both Papyrus Extender and PapyrusUtil installed since they are required by a handful of other mods I'm using. Quote Also, there is no such thing as the Dark Face bug so the DarkFaceBugFix esp seems like easily avoidable problem. it's just an exemple of poorly stack esp or wrong doing in term of meshes/texture, this esp unless a patch for your own setup, is already something that should be removed. I was having an issue with dark faces with cutting room floor NPCS, once I dropped the esp to fix it in there, the dark faces went away. I tried looking at the npcs in xEdit that were having the dark face problem but xEdit told me nothing was overwriting or conflicting with them so I wasn't sure what to do. I could take the time to shift esps around and see if I can fix it without the additional esp, but.... eeeehhh... I don't really wanna Quote WIth the papyrus log we could see what's taking much of the script in between loading and in the background. That would help, if you would crash with the FrameWork DMP, we would see culprits, but infinite loadings are harder to catch, but we'll get there. I've tried using the Papyrus Log to help trim down any script heavy mods, but disabling them only puts off the ILS until later in the game (about an hour, usually), if at all. Since what happens is technically a freeze and not a crash, no crash logs appear in my NetScriptFramework crash logs (if that is what you are referring to). Again, thank you for responding and looking over all this. Spoiler check for errors.txt Papyrus.0.log
Nathala Posted March 19, 2021 Author Posted March 19, 2021 Sorry for the double post, but I just want to boost this thread before I give up completely on SSE. One update I would like to share is that now I am able sometimes able to enter interior cells. When loading into the game, there is a random, small chance that I can play the game normally for a few hours before running into another infinite loading screen. It is inconsistent to the point of randomness, and I am unable to reproduce it with any tricks or series of actions. I was able to run around as I pleased in Riften, but leaving Riften and going to the Lost Prospect Mine, for example, would produce and infinite loading screen sometimes. I would just reload, try and enter, CTRL ALT DEL and kill the game in task manager if it froze, and try again until I got inside. Right now, I cannot enter anything and have become frustrated enough to dig up this old post. Playing the game like that is unsustainable. If this is being caused by a mod/mod issue, I would not know. Playing the game without sexlab mods would not produce an infinite loading screen, but introducing even a few beyond the necessities would. I would experiment with different load orders of sexlab mods to try and weed out a particular mod causing the issue, but I could not solve it with this method, leading me to believe there is something else going on. The nature of the issue keeps me from being able to consistently test it, since infinite loading screens could appear and halt my playthrough completely hours after normal play. I feel like I'm the only one with the issue, as I have not found any old post or such with someone having a similar issue. Again, I was told this is Skyrim running out of memory, which troubles me because my playthroughs on Skyrim LE had similar load orders and did not have this problem, which is why I am tempted to go back. Again, sorry for bringing up my old troubleshooting post, but it will most surely be the last time I do.
