hornguy6 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I have no idea how to use the GECK to find the dialogue topics and fix them. I can't figure it out from google searches and the only thing that I can find that references it is the Skyrim Creation Kit fix for the AddTopic bug. Can anyone help me with this?
zippy57 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 Have a look at your entire LO in FNVEdit to see if there are any mods that add dialog to default topics like GREETING, HELLO or GOODBYEHave you done this step yet?

Yes I have. If it matters, every instance of GREETING is tinted red in FNVEdit.
zippy57 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 You can do this in the GECK but since you're having trouble with it, you can do it in FNVEdit too. Open FNVEdit again, go to the GREETING dialog topics, and go down through every one. You're looking for anything that has something in that Add Topic box. Right-click on whatever is in the box and delete it.
DoctaSax Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 I should also point out that as far as I understand this bug, even fixing the mod(s) triggering it will not fix a save where it already happened. Also, you'll still need the geck to provide an alternate way of adding the topic, by using "addtopic TopicID" in the dialog result script.
zippy57 Posted March 31, 2015 Posted March 31, 2015 You might be able to fix it by doing a clean save.
hornguy6 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Posted April 1, 2015 You might be able to fix it by doing a clean save. Already tried that in the past. This bug only comes up when I activate Spunk and even if I start a brand new game it will only work for a little while and then it will break again. The bug will always persist in the same manner though, only causing a CTD after the NPC has gone through its dialogue and right before my speech options come up. You can do this in the GECK but since you're having trouble with it, you can do it in FNVEdit too. Open FNVEdit again, go to the GREETING dialog topics, and go down through every one. Topics.png You're looking for anything that has something in that Add Topic box. Right-click on whatever is in the box and delete it. My main issue in the GECK is that I just can't even find the dialogue in it. I had no idea I could do it in FNVEdit which makes my life simpler as I don't have any knowledge of the GECK. I'm still not entirely sure that I understand though, I delete anything that I find in the Add Topic box? So, at the end of each GREETING box (still can't find an AddTopic box with something in it) the PDAM Priority is highlighted in red text. Any meaning behind that?
zippy57 Posted April 1, 2015 Posted April 1, 2015 Yes, but it's not anything you need to be worried about. If the Priority was causing a problem, it would be a completely different one.
hornguy6 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Posted April 11, 2015 After much time spent sorting through my mods, I believe it is finally fixed! I still get the occasional CTD after dialogue, but I think it only seems to happen when I click through too fast. Thank you all for helping to inform me of what the problem was and how to go about fixing it.
