Need help with CTD issue

[Verkan]

So, back again with another issue.

 

I got my modlist set up and going, managed to start a new game and play for several hours without issue. Quit the game to do other things and when I came back the next day, not only would it not allow me to load my save game, but I can't start a new game either as it immediately CTDs. This also occurs if I try to use the Continue option or load from a previous save file.

 

 

I've done the following to try and figure out why but nothing has come back with an issue I can see.

TESV Edit to check for missing masters and such

LOOT to see if something was moved around

Rebuilt my FNIS and Dual Sheath patches

Manually scanned through the MO Data folder to try and find any issues that I recognized.

Did a file check through Steam then reran hardware detection and re-checked my ENB installation.

 

I'm stumped why this suddenly decided to refuse working.

[myuhinny]

Load order is a must as we have no clue what you have installed into your game.

[Verkan]

Yeah, I edited my original post to add the loadorder/modlist under the spoiler tags

[Sorinade]

I find the autosave function frequently creates saves which won't load when the game is heavily modded. Thus have it disabled and save regularly, keeping about a dozen saves and resaving over the oldest one each time.

 

I think i've read that this saves which won't load (crash on loading them) are caused by a script overload issue. A solution I found on another thread here is to load a relatively empty save area, such as the "live another life" mod prison cell at the start (so start a new game or load an early save). Then after about 30 seconds, you can hit the menu again and reload the save that wouldn't load. I just keep the prison cell save from the start of my playthrough to use for this purpose.

 

Might work for you, might not. I rarely get it now that i've installed the "safety load" mod. It is supposedly included in another mod (racemenu i think), but installing it seperately made a lot of difference for me, seriously reduced the constant load screen issue as well.

 

The CTD on new game thought sounds like a missing ESM.

 

Oh, and as i've not counted them - you're not trying to run more than 254 mods are you?

[Verkan]

So, I tried Safety Load after creating a new profile in MO(just to be safe) and it still CTDs when I try and load.

 

As for my mod count, its only 217. I try generally keep it below 250.

[Sorinade]

I try to keep it below 250 as well... I generally fail (254 atm). Sure i read that it can be increased to 512... but not foudn instructions so I've put it down as a myth

 

It's CTD on a new profile? A blank one or a copy of your other profile? With the same save games, or no save games?

 

Don't think the below is relevant, was meant in reference to another thread Got confused as to which one I was replying to.

 

 

You didn't mention if you have FNIS... FNIS is a requirement for Sexlab. If you don't have it installed, and run it prior to loading (run through MO like you're running SKSE) then it will CTD. There is an install guide on Youtube.

 

 

[Verkan]

Yeah, I have FNIS. Even rebuilt the patch just to be sure.

 

I'm going back to some of my previous profiles, I rebuilt my modlist in stages because I was trying to track down a problem mod which lead to one that seemed to be improperly installed but the problems now aren't the same as before.

[Sorinade]

Random thoughts:

- Have you installed any new mods recently that might have caused a conflict. Like two body mods, or two weather altering mods.

- Everything up to date? For example I re-built my mod list last week, and just realised today i'd installed an old version of racemenu. (wondered where the options had gone). Seem to find a couple of mods each week on here that get updated.

 

 

[Verkan]

I was doing updates to various mods as updated the list. But managed to get them to work.

 

I've found one duplicate on an NPC, but that didn't clear up the problem.

 

I'm probably going to have to find a version that works and start rebuilding from there. Looks like another three day project for me. lol

[RitualClarity]

So, back again with another issue.

 

I got my modlist set up and going, managed to start a new game and play for several hours without issue. Quit the game to do other things and when I came back the next day, not only would it not allow me to load my save game, but I can't start a new game either as it immediately CTDs.

It might work to varying degrees.

 

 

 

 

I run 254 mods, but had to cut a load of the overhaul type mods I was running such as frostfall, immersive patrols. I now run a higher percentage of simple mods such as armour/follower/weapons and limit the overhauls to the best (imo, like SL, DD, an armour overhaul and an ENB) and my game is a lot more stable overall.

Maybe cut a few, and run different profiles for different game aspects.

[RitualClarity]

Yes that might help.. Keep in mind that the Gambro engine isn't the most stable of the bunch. I have an 8 core processor. 16 gigs of ram multiple SSDs and a 670 and I can also run games close to 250 or so esps.. However.. there is a risk of errors and strange effects. Missing textures ( if you have heavy textures ) or features and even conversations. Errors don't always mean CTD. Missing quest starts and the such. Many contribute that to a bad game created however if you lighten the stress.. those issues seem to slow or even stop.

 

I have pretty much filled my Skyrim with most of what I want for a few game plays and will start playing with some other options in another profile (MO) and remove some that isn't quite so important for that play through. If you look through the mod you are using and what you are doing you also likely will find some not so important.

 

By the way.. I rarely have a CTD with Skyrim.. Fallout NV. or even Fallout 3.. Oblivion I do .. however I haven't played that much  so I haven't refined the mods or such to be stable. Don't know the sweet spot for my computer and mods list. Each computer, list is unique as is the person playing the game.. choices and order of completion of quest etc.

 

Modding don't seem so much a science as more of an art form now adays..

 

Hope some ideas I have given you helps. Others might be able to help you condense the mods that are able to be merged and such. Useful for those base setups .. mods that are a must for every game.

I'd like to merge some more files together. I have a few magic based mods since I like to use magic a lot. There is also some that require certain equipment be installed and I wonder if I couldn't merge it all together and for it to work, but I'm probably a moderate skill level for modding, enough to do a lot trouble shooting and stuff on my own, but not enough knowledge to go in and start fiddling with the actual files and stuff in the CK or something.

Merging files is something on my list to learn as well. Along with fixing errors, so much to learn - and it all takes away from gaming time

My understanding and keep in mind that i haven't done it myself but likely will soon enough... I might have about the same level of understanding you do.

 

Keep the mods to mods that only have item not scripts. Scripts or quests etc can get messed up badly. See the game will merge them but if the id's etc are identical between two mods these ids and such will get renamed. This will mean that a script won't see the items quest etc that it is expecting potentially causing strange issues or even CTD.

Thank you. I'll put it on my to read list.

 

@Verkan. I hope you do get it fixed/working again. Part of the trouble is most of the really interesting mods here are beta/WIP. There is always the chance that they will break save games.

Because of that - I've taken to starting a game, and concentratint on trying a few mods out. Using the console commands as I need to, to boost levels or get items I want such as gold. It makes the save less valuable (hard to lose) in case I have to trash it. Also it is helping me learn more about hwo the game is built, as I plan to try mod making at some point.

 

I have a base profile in mod organizer with just the ENB setup on it, to make for a quicker rebuild.

 

Yesterday I learnt how to open locked doors with the console! Which makes the prison overhaul mod less buggy as I can open doors the guards get stuck at

If I remember correctly safety load isn't needed because I believe it is already included in the new RaceMenu plugin.

 

The more mods that you add that use scripts or high script using mods the more chance to have problems in  game and if you turned any of those off their can be still scripts left in the save from the one/ones that you turned off. You might be able to clean a save to remove scripts that are still there.

You should be able to start a new game even with a heavy script load, at a minimum you should be able to get through character creation. The most common cause I had seen for crashing at start of a new game was not having the proper skeleton for the male body, either something is overwritten the male skeleton or the prisoner clothes and they are no longer compatible (I am betting it is the skeleton).

[Verkan]

Just an update. I trimmed my mod list down to about 160, but I'm still having the same issues. Its becoming a real headscratcher and I'm beginning to start looking at Hardware issues, since I used to be able to run a high mod load before while using NMM. I hate to go back to it, because I am loving the control that MO offers me but it might be my only option if I want to play the game again.

 

Edit: So apparently a complete reinstall of Skyrim fixed the problem. Somehow the base program must have been affected somehow and it just wouldn't load anymore or something. Thanks for all the help folks.

Yea.. with Mo it only take a few seconds to "verify cache" or even reload the game as the mods aren't loaded in the game as well.. . Only CK, TESedit and SKSE.. .. Maybe a batch file or two.. (my case possible 25 or so.. lol)
