Something about Ice Wraiths always cause my game to crash

[Jaxon Hellsing]

Hello! I've had this issue every now and then but some reason Whenever I go near ivarstead I crash to my desktop, this can also sometimes happen at bleak falls barrow and can prevent progress with both infiltrating the thalmor embassy and going to high hrothgar. I never understand what causes this though as my crash logs always just say each part of an ice wraith. I also can never see the ice wraith when this happens. I have attached my crash log if anyone can help me solve the issue. Thanks!

Could you use the console to spawn an ice wraith next to you to see if it causes crashing?

 

Spawn each type of ice wraith until it crashes if you can.

First ice wraith I spawned crashed me to my desktop

I think it's anything to do with ice wraiths

Does it crash when you look at the ice wraith, or does it crash as soon as the wraith is near you? (ty walking up high hrothgar backwards while looking at the ground so you don't see the ice wraiths when they spawn.)

 

If it only crashes when you look at them, maybe its a bad mesh or texture.

I'll try walking backwards but I think it's when it's in the vicinity

 

Edit: walked backwards, didn't change anything

3 things could do it:

1 the skeleton (nif or hkx) being used for them is bad (find and replace or remove)

2 there body mesh has been replaced with a bugged one (find and remove)

3 extremely bad behavior files (hit the de-install creature button in fnis and then rerun fins)

 

all meshes and skeletons files are found here:

Data\Meshes\actors\icewraith\character assets\

I tried searching Data\Meshes\Actors\Icewraith\Character assets and nothing pops up, so I searched "ice wraith" and "icewraith" tried deleting every folder that was called either or and nothing happened.

I even said De-Install creature framework and that I don't think did anything. I'll try again with the creature framework. Also I'm mainly using a new engine that supports both Nemesis and Fnis called Pandora.

or well not Creature Framework but I did click De-Install Creatures. It's not doing it some reason. It still says De-Install creatures even after clicking the button and it saying creatures uninstalled

Edit: nothing changed. I disabled FNIS Creature Pack, did nothing and deleted the folders named Ice Wraith and Icewraith, did nothing

clicking it just deletes all behavior files that finis generated for creatures, allowing new clean ones to be generated the next time fnis is ran.

that's what you DON'T want to do, the files your looking for are possibly in MNC, ABC and/or XP32.

Also I checked XP32 and there's no Icewraith folder, even when reinstalling it
