Script Monitor Mod

[crusher]

Is there such a thing? Something that just parses out the normal script activity (weight on hardware resources) into a usage chart? Not papyrus errors, just intended activity.

 

It would be very helpful for modders and mod authors alike. Many of my favorite mods I suspect are very script-heavy. Such a mod would be a great way to help balance below point of 'stack overflow' errors, and subsequent CTDs.

Uhm Convenient Horses comes with a script latency checker, and I think Sand of Time too. It's the best I know. I use all the 'heavy scripted' mods in the 'market' and I havent found a single CTD due to scripts yet. I think if you use reliable and well pulished mods, and vanilla papyrus settings (or don't touch it at all), having issues with scripts is almost impossible? I mean, for 'heavy scripted' mods you can understand two categories, mods that effectively includes tons of scripts, or mods that runs scripts constantly, like those that uses cloack effect (Frostfall, Aroused, etc.) or checks NPC's all the time in exteriors (like Wet and Cold). All those mods runs flawesily. And a mod that you can consider 'light' can have only one or two script files but be poorly done and screw your game/stability. I personally upgraded my CPU from an old crap to a decent i5 3,2, and I run even more 'heavies' without my latency going over 50-60ms, when with my previous cpu and less mods I could go 100-200ms, very unplayable.
