Getting crash at specific point with my script.

[Veladarius]

I am getting a very consistent crash at a specific point when starting a scene and I am not sure why. I am not having the issue with other mods just mine currently. I have reinstalled SexLab and several other mods, run FNIS (no errors) and have even started a new game but the issue persists. The papyrus log doesn't show any errors at the time of the crash either.

 

Here is the script I am using:

 

 

Function StartElenwenOral() ;start sex with Elenwen

 

actor[] sexActors = new actor[2]

sexactors[0] = Playerref

sexactors[1] = ActorElenwen

 

sslBaseAnimation[] anims

;anims = SexLab.GetAnimationsByTag(2, "oral", "FF")

 

RegisterforModEvent("HookAnimationend_Elenwen", "CheckElenwenDone")

sexlab.startsex(sexactors, anims, centeron = PosElenwenSol02, allowbed = false, hook = "elenwen")

 

Endfunction

 

Event CheckElenwenDone(int threadID, bool hasPlayer)

UnregisterForModEvent("HookAnimationend_Elenwen")

if quest02.getstage() == 165

quest02.setstage(170)

;debug.notification("Elenwen wants more")

elseif quest02.getstage() == 175

quest02.setstage(180)

;debug.notification("Elenwen is finished")

endif

DisablePlayerControl()

Endevent

 

It will work properly on occasion but most times it crashes. This is the log from the most current one, it worked properly on the first pass but crashed on the second: Papyrus.0.zip

 

Every other time it crashes it crashes at the exact same point (same last line).

That log looks familiar. Seen multiple crashes at the exact same point, regardless of what mod initiated the scene, at that point it should be fully up to SL anyway.

[aqqh]

thats sort of a teaser 

[Veladarius]

In the last dozen attempts (and crashes) it has made it through the first of the two acts twice but not the second. The thing is once I had it working at first it would work fairly regularly but got worse and worse as I tested, the only line that changed was the anims= line.

 

 

This quest will do far more than tease, this part is just to warm things up a bit.

[Veladarius]

Ok, I reactivated the anims= line and added a tag:

 

anims = SexLab.GetAnimationsByTag(2, "oral", "FF", TagSuppress = "boobjob")

 

And the scene works as it was before, it seems like the fewer the tags the worse the stability. I was down to just the oral tag before when stability worsened and commenting out that line seems to have made it completely unstable but it should work without it. I will continue testing to see if that has resolved the problem.

 

Also, can you use more than one tag with the tagsuppress or can you block the use of the strapon for that scene? If so I have not been able to figure out how.

[Veladarius]

Well, it works more often but still crashes regularly and at that same point and the same last line in the log. On some of the crashes I get the Runtime error when it does (I have reinstalled the C++ redist and made sure it is up to date).

[Tepi]

Has Impatience of the Saint quest been completed on any of the saves youve got a C++ error? If not completed, it is known to cause C++ errors. Now Im starting to think if C++ error can also be a silent ctd...

[Veladarius]

My current test game is brand new, character has not done anything else other than get out of the cell in LAL. This is the third character I have used as a test, one was level 10 and the other was 17th and both of those saves were from before this quest was made.

[Tepi]

You could try starting and completing said quest from console if by some miracle it would solve the problem. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Impatience_of_a_Saint

[Veladarius]

I don't think I have ever completed it, the Soul Cairn was just too boring to stay. I will give it a try though.

[Fotogen]

Only time I had CTD when starting SL scene was because of bad skeleton/body mesh combo.

 

That YgNordRace(female) works fine? I mean YgNordRace is a custom race. For some odd reason custom races come with pretty wierd mesh/skeleton.

 

Edit: oh, and not all animations are created equally. It could be just some combos of animation, mesh, skeleton.

 

Long shot: Long, long time ago, there was a bug with elven races. Instant CTD if you switch between 1st and 3rd person view.

[Veladarius]

I customized the YGNord in mine to use the same body and skeleton as everyone else. I don't have any issues with sex scenes from other mods, just the one I am trying to set up.

 

as for the 1st / 3rd person issue, I don't use the 1st person view.

[Veladarius]

The other odd issue I am having is with equipping a blindfold just after that scene (if it makes it through). The command is set up correctly (identical to the gag that is equipped just before it with no problem) and the properties are all correct, I have even tried 3 different blindfolds and it crashes with each of them. I know that they are working as I can equip them on myself and the same command works in the other scripts I am using. It doesn't throw any errors in the log with that either.

When things stop working for me, I:

- add shit load of Debug.Trace lines. Like every second line. Not a joke. (Ever since I learned how to make SKSE plugin i replaced Debug.Trace with Windows OutputDebugString. It sends text to external app, DBWin32. If Skyrim crashes, that external app is still alive, so I don't lose log)

- I add 'trace' everywhere, including other mods. They come with source. And even if they wouldn't theres pex decompiler.

- comment out everything until things start to work ... and then add things back one by one

 

[Veladarius]

Sexlab already has a lot of those, I can see the point where it crashes. This is all the entries in the log from it:

It ends at the exact same point every time and happens 95% of the time it runs.

 

 

[Fotogen]

SL didn't crash there (where theres log entry). Up to that point it was OK. It crashed somewhere after that line.

 

Only way to know when it crashed is to add more traces. Crash would be just before the 'trace' that doesn't show in log file.

 

As SL sends mod events, you'd also have to comment out those or disable mods that listen, catch SL events. Just to be sure the problem is not one of other mods.

 

[Veladarius]

I may have figured out the issue, I am repeating my tests to see if it works consistently, so far the sex scene has worked 4 out of 4 times.

[Veladarius]

Well, what I found helped a lot but didn't eliminate the issue.

 

The SexLab script is triggered during a scene where the player is bound on their knees. There are 2 sessions with a short 1 phase scene between them.

 

Originally I was using an Idle Marker with the idle assigned to it, apparently it was having issues releasing the player. With this setup it crashed every time on the first session

 

I added a command to reset the players idle just before the scene and the stability improved. Out of 6 runs it completed both sessions 3 times and crashed on the first 3 times.

 

I went back in and changed the Idle marker to a xmarkerheading and put the idle in the AI package for that part and kept the idle reset and the reliability improved again. Out of 7 runs it completed the first session every time and crashed on the second 3 of the 7 times.

 

When it does crash, it crashes at the same point every time though.

[Srende]

Also, can you use more than one tag with the tagsuppress or can you block the use of the strapon for that scene? If so I have not been able to figure out how.

Yep, just have suppress tags as a comma separated list in the string.

[Veladarius]

Well, it works better but not reliably, it still crashes about half the time in the second session.

[Veladarius]

I removed the idle from the phases just before the sexlab scene, it seems to have helped. The odd thing is that I don't have the same problem with male/female scenes, just the female/female ones.
