Link to a guide on debugging a papyrus log?

[Plaguetard2.0]

Greetings. So, some context... I came back to play some Skyrim after some time off. I didn't add anything new, but just mostly updated existing mods (which is a lot).

 

Upon character creation, I found my SL MCM isn't loading up. Just stays blank even after 10+ minutes. After checking into some issues I did see Pandora is recommended, but honestly, thus far that just seems to crash so I'm sticking with Nemesis/FNIS. So, I decided under the recommendation other posts, I thought to check into my Papyrus Log and goooooood lord it is a disaster and needs to be addressed. However, I acknowledge understanding these errors is somewhat out of my current level of knowledge. 

 

For example - "[12/10/2025 - 07:41:49AM] Error: Script DsR__TIF__02025960 cannot be bound to topic info 77025960 on <nullptr quest> because the script does not exist or is not currently loaded" I believe references an issue between mod 02 (Dawnguard.esm) and mod 77 (college days of winterhold-patch). 

 

or I have many variations of - "[12/10/2025 - 07:41:50AM] Cannot open store for class "MMX452_ASL_MolagBalScript", missing file?" but I don't see a mod number to attempt to connect this issue with and find what is likely a problematic mod (or at least problematic in my load order).

 

Does anyone know of a wiki or other reference guide in understanding your papyrus log better to help flush out problems?

 

Many thanks

My signature has one. WIP, documenting more when/if issues arise. Maybe this thread will reveal new things.

Greetings Traison. I've tracked an error I think could be causing an issue with perma black screens on cell loads (I disabled autosave, issue persists).

 

I am getting the following;

[12/12/2025 - 12:57:53PM] SCO_:CellChangeStalkerObj:OnCellDetach: 
[12/12/2025 - 12:57:53PM] Error: Cannot call GetValue() on a None object, aborting function call
stack:
    [ (7E59CC03)].cwicourtyardweatherscript.OnCellDetach() - "CWICourtyardWeatherScript.psc" Line 19
[12/12/2025 - 12:57:53PM] WARNING: Assigning None to a non-object variable named "::temp6"

 

So, I am attempting to find the plugin associated with the script "SCO_:CellChangeStalkerObj:OnCellDetach"

I've attempted to check three mods I thought could be the culprit, but it doesn't belong to them utilizing 4.3 on your guide. I'm trying to understand how to search all the plugins, but I don't understand how I'm supposed to get all the plugins to Notepad++ using this section

 

If you have a lot of plugins, and going through them is too slow then use Notepad++ to search for the script name in all plugins:

1. Ctrl + F
2. Find in Files -tab
3. Find what: <script name>
4. Filters: *.es*
5. Use the xEdit method above to find the records, now that you know the plugin names.

 

Am I missing something that allows me to get all the scripts into a txt file so I can do this search?

No wonder, considering that's not an error, just some random debug message from a mod most likely called "SCO". The problem is in cwicourtyardweatherscript.pex, and that's the file you should be looking for.

Every mod manager has a folder where they keep their mod files.

Well, I definitely know what mod the weather script comes from then. Thanks, I appreciate your guidance.
