CTD Northern Solstheim


Virde

Recommended Posts

A frustrating CTD issue that exclusively happens on Solstheim. At first, I couldn't leave Raven Rock's eastern exit and could only explore the most southern part of Solstheim. But after vigorous tweaking with Ordenador, CMCO, Papyrus Data Transfer, Tes5Edit and Save Cleaners I can now safely explore all the non-snowwy areas.

Each area covered in snow causes me to immediately CTD without any error related. Doesn't matter if it's on a new character, old character, with mods, without mods or anything I've tried. I've read about others having this issue, but none of them got a solution. I'm pleased that I can experience now less than half of the DLC I've never played before (Probably far far less than half since I assume Temple of Miraak is where most of the DLC takes place). 

Anyone have any issue what could be causing this CTD? I've eliminated the possibility of it being a mod. Since it improved specifically when Ordenador and CMCO messed with all the textures/meshes I assume it is related to that in some way. Specifically, in that the snowy areas on Solstheim is causing the issue. 

 

But that's just speculation. Papyrus logs reveal nothing of relevance and I've set my Ini settings to default and used console commands "refreshini."

 

On top of that, if I use "coc" console command to teleport to any exterior on Northern Solstheim it causes CTD.  

 

I am using USLEEP. CTD happens with or without it. 

 

Send help pl0x.

For your ini the best way to make sure it has been reset is to delete it then start your game normally without SKSE and when the game launch screen pops up it'll make you a brand new ini.

 

Never had a problem with the DLC so not sure what could be causing it. Could be a memory issue or something when around snow does it crash at other places that have snow in other parts of the game like in the skyrim area if it does then it might be a issue with your computer and it not being able to handle it. Are you using any type of ENB? If so try disabling it and see if that is the cause.

No, only Solstheim is causing issues. I can see the snow no issues and I just tried a snow texture/mesh replacement pack with no avail, which eliminates that as the issue. Just something about loading the cells in Northern Solstheim causing a CTD. 

 

The computer is brand new, less than a month old (120 Gig SSD, 8 GDDR3 Ram, 4 GDDR5 960 GTX GPU, 6th Gen i5) and plays Skyrim on Ultra with 4k texture mods no issue. I've lowered the resolution on all textures and even tried playing on minimum settings to try and see if that would fix it, it wouldn't.

 

I'll try getting a new ini and see if it's just a setting in there that's causing it. Although I've had it create new ini's in the past. But that was before all my tweaks. 

 

Edit: 

I had Skyrim create new Ini files... with a minor success. I was able to venture about twelve feet further than I was able to before on a new character before it CTD again. 

 

Progress, even if three meters at a time.

Sure, although I don't think this is going to display all the texture mods that simply alter textures. All of the Solstheim based mods I installed after having issues in hopes they would fix it. No real improvement was gained from any of them outside of making the areas that do work, look nicer.

I have used LOOT to order all but the most recent ten or twelve of them. All post-crashing issue. I have also uninstalled and played without them only for the issue to persist. I've checked file integrity to reinstall any missing Beth files, I've re-cleaned dirty edits with Tes5Edit and tried everything I could think of. All parts of the game are fine besides just that one section. 

Also, I could't find the spoiler tag, sorry for massive list. >__>

Try turning everything down or off in your gpu driver control panel, not sure what it's called for nvidia but things like morphological filtering and texture smoothing should be off for sure to try and find the cause of a crash related to mesh or textures and fx. If this does not make any difference then the problem is either a driver issue with your gpu or what tefajo said a lighting or mesh\texture overhaul mod.

Ok, took a very fast glance at your load order and i think i know were the problem might be:

I do not think that "Summersolstheim" + "solsttheim Skies" (both same mod) are compatible with "Solstheim landscape overhaul" , since they are both landscape changes of the same region

 

Also, remember that high res patches should go inmediately after all your esm (so in case you plan to keep summersoltheim it uses the mod textures and not the vanilla / dlc ones)
