need help moving - out of CTD city


slonez1

Recommended Posts

My game has slowly descended into a frustrating experience.  I've been back into Skyrim since I built my new PC about 2 months ago, modding and adding more and more.  Its a great game, and the content and community on this site has simply made it the best game I've ever experienced.  thank you, and thank you in advance for any help here.

 

My biggest concern are load times.  The game will show the loading animation/help screen, then it will freeze up and delay 1-5 minutes depending on what it's loading.  It tends to crash often as well too, 50% of the time at least. more if i haven't had a CTD in a while.

 

I pray that someone here can help me because many reasons, but mostly because this is the only thing I have to look forward to when I get home from my shitty job.  anyhow...

 

I've been limping along pretty well for a while, reading and trying to incorporate any suggestions I've been finding on the web.   I taught myself to use test5edit, NMM (migrated to MO), Wyre Bash, and LOOT.  I was feeling pretty good about my ability to get mods working, but now i'm at a loss.  

 

I am using SkyRe, OneTweak (maybe an issue?), ENB, Wyre Bash and Reproccer.

 

I wanted to list all my mods, but the only way I could find to do that was to paste my bashed patch report.  If you have a better option, I'd be interested in learning.

Skyrim is an old game now and has been known to be unstable at times, even in vanilla.

 

It happens I'm a bit like you : I upgraded my PC early january, spent time trying to find new and recent cool mods. I was like : "hell yea my PC will handle everything now !!"

 

But even if you can run games that require very high spec, doesn't mean you'll run Skyrim well with 255+ mods.

Last install I tried to get the essentials but I installed more, and more. In the end, the game was KINDA stable, but when you get a CTD every hour because you change cell, save your game... it's really frustrating. I used to play Skyrim hours before any type of CTD, even though I wasn't using ENB and textures mods.

 

Now I made some sort of archives where I sort each type of mod, and I really try to focus on having the essential stuff. I also try to avoid scripted mods unless they really help with gameplay. Scripts cause a lot more troubles than we might think.

I'm actually reinstalling my mods now on a brand new Skyrim folder, and I think it will have around 100 plugins, no more or it will eventually crash, even if you try to be careful with compatibilities. This game tends to screw up for the most silly things for no logic reason.

Bloodfang, it's not true that there's no logical reason -- game scripting and modding is, if anything, highly logical.  It's math based, the core of any programming algorithm.  To most of us, like me, the "magic" is only the parts we don't fully understand.  In the case of Skyrim, it could be save bloat, conflicting scripts, poorly-written mods or even just an improperly installed mod.

 

@ slonez1:  your description sounded very familiar to me.  The best suggestion I can offer you is to read Sacremas' helpful Skyrim Modding Guide.   He's personally helped me unravel what I thought was a totally screwed up mess of a game, to the point that I was ready to delete Skyrim and walk away.  The problems I've been having since his help have been my own fault for not properly uninstalling mods in mid game, or not reading the requirements.

 

Couple of questions for you:

 

1. Has your save game size increased beyond rational bounds?  (I'm talking about anything from 6k to 12k as "normal".  Significantly more than that indicates a major problem you can fix with a script cleaner utility.

 

2. Are you running GenerateFNISforUsers.exe any time you make a change adding or removing a mod?  You can hook it to Mod Organizer in such a way that you can run it from inside of MO.  When I had issues with some animations/dialog, changing to run FNIS from within MO fixed it for me.

 

3. Does MO's list of mod conflicts have any red flags? Sacremas' thread also links to Gophers' excellent tutorials on how to take advantage of MO's many abilities.  That was a huge learning experience for me in my quest to get this damned, frustrating but awesome game to stop crashing.

Of course there is always a reason why you get a CTD, I simply meant sometimes when you CTD it makes no sense because it can happen randomly for no apparent reason. Especially Skyrim or any TES/Fallout game developped by Bethesda for that matter.

My save game is fine, about 13k (lvl 49).  I did totally un-install every SL/DD mod recently and reinstall them slowly in order, hoping this would fix the job.  

 

I have ASIS/Reproccer/WB/FNIS/Loot all installed into MO successfully and run them through MO.  I do run FNIS everytime I would make a change that would affect it.  The load+crash is slightly faster when FNIS isn't patched properly, so it kind of reminds me to do it if I forget.

 

I will have to take a look at that, I've watched a few of his videos, and i guess i need to go back and make sure i got them all.  As far as MO having red flags?  LOOT doesn't tell me there are any conflicts, where would I see them?

Link to comment

When you run LOOT, it gives you a report with messages and/or warnings.  The messages are normally just confirming that a mod is running (sometimes a caveat attached or suggesting an update).  The warnings are in red, though, and tell you about missing .esm's or other conflicts.

 

When I was experiencing frequent CTDs or was unable to load saves, I had to completely uninstall Skyrim (through Steam, Properties->Local Files -> Delete Local content).  It will not delete your saved games or .esp files, but after you've given it an hour or two to reinstall you can start fresh.  It's a pain in the butt to do, and I had to do it 5 times in 2 weeks before I finally managed to create a working build. (Mostly because I was adding mods willy-nilly or uninstalling them improperly).   Finally, it at least gave me a working game.

 

Right now I'm having problems with a couple of MCM menus not working and reinstalling SkyUI and the mods hasn't helped.  It's like the problems never end.

I've been through most of what you described to a point of almost giving up on Skyrim, for months I was fiddling around trying to get the perfect mod setup plagued with CTD's, freezes etc... I decided to research more & try to understand about conflicts, to which now I can say I'm happy with my current installation.

Main things I learned was keep the scripted mods within limits, compromises needed to be made, keep an eye on Papyrus log sizes if it goes above 300kb (excluding new game start up), investigate what I have added what can be tweaked to resolve it or uninstall the added mods, also install run no higher than 1k textures.

I have 180 mods installed & average papyrus logs are between 100-200kb after hours of gamplay, with save files averaging 10-15mb on level 50 characters. silky smooth gameplay with constant 60fps, with Realvision ENB 265a.

 

Sorry, I cant help you really... I just wanted to share my experience & say try to learn the limits and don't push to far.

I will give this a shot right now*. 

It could be part of the problem, not properly uninstalling old mods.  I had ASIS in there as well which when I switch to MO it nearly fucked my save. 

Thanks to PDTWrapper I was able to at least retrieve it. 

 

thanks for all the suggestions, keep them coming!

Running 114 mods right now, which is about 20 less than my previous build, those are all HD/ENB files that I can live without.  It seems very stable so far, with no freezing load screens and they're only taking about 5-20 seconds, which is decent.  I do think OneTweak may have been a factor as well.

 

thanks all, i think i solved that problem.  Now to figure out why Death Alternative isn't acting like it used to.
