CTD, Infinite load screen, all in or around whiterun.

[ReptilNecrosis]

Hello people, I have a problem regarding whiterun and bannered mare.

 

Every time I try to enter or load into whiterun, i either get Infinite load screen, or I CTD, this only happens around whiterun.

 

But thing is, it's totally random, sometimes the game will let me load whiterun, or even enter it from the outside, this is a very rare occurence, I have searched for a fix for a good say, 4 days now, and all the stuff i have found have helped next to nothing, this includes: cleaning saves, script cleaning, ENBoost and stabilizing skyrim, giving skyrim 6 gigs to run on, tweaking .ini settings to the optimal ones by approved guides.

 

The only thing i have not tried is to unpack my .bsa files, since that simply seems too risky and/or will wreck my skeleton mods for good.

 

Any1 got any other ideas?

How did you give skyrim 6GB? Can you post a load order and papyrus log.

 

Also add this to skse.ini  

[Debug]
WriteMinidumps=1

 

Run the game until it crashes, repeat that a couple of times then go to https://www.osronline.com/page.cfm?name=analyze and upload your crash dumps then see if they are giving the same error.

I'll try seeing what happens through the dumps, and about the 6 gigs, enblocal.ini from ENBoost from official website about allocating 6 gigs from an NVIDIA graphics card.

 

Line looks like this VideoMemorySizeMb=6016 if i understood the description correctly.

And where would i be able to find papyrus logs? i never quite figured that out.

Nvm i figured out the papyrus logs, will update with load order and some logs later.

Is crash dumps and papyrus logs the same?

Only mods i know of that make you crash around whiterun are, Ter Arena any mod that alters outskirts of skyrim and Populated skyrim series, so if you have a lotta mods or dont have skse.ini configured you will most likely crash, but since you said its random my guess would be an a memory issue or a script that plays when you get near whiterun. might help you dumb it down which mdos doing what.

I don't know what you would see as alot of mods but i think I am around 80.

 

And I do have skse configured like said on many forums, and yes as previously mentioned, it is completely random if it infinite load screens, CTD's, or lets me load a save, but mostly it either freezes or just straight CTD's when I near whiterun.

The papyrus is not the same as debugg, might not need debug report if there is something obvious in papyrus log, anyway, all current logs are kept in mydocuments/mygames/skyrim/....

 

To get detailed papyrus log you will need this in skyrim.ini

[Papyrus]
bEnableLogging=1
bEnableTrace=1

 

Once you have the logs you need and the problem is fixed set enable trace back to 0 or it will create performance problems, only use it when looking for problems.
