Hello there,

I've written a full question and deleted it by accident, so here is a short form of it:

I'm having trouble loading the Update.esm data (Skyrim.esm workes fine) into the Creation Kit. At 99% of loadet files a dialog appears:

Assert

File: C:\_Skyrim\Code\WESV\TES Shared\misc\BGSLocalizedString.cpp.

Line: 2817

LOCALISATION: Error opening or reading strings file.

All options (cancel, retry, ignore) are crashing the Kit.

If I press "ignore", another dialog appears:

Warning

MASTERFILE: LOCALIZATION: Zero entries or empty block size read

from strings file STRINGS/Update_ENGLISH.STRINGS. Strings will be

missing.

All three options are crashing the programm.

If requierd: I'm using Win8 (64bit) and my Steam isn't in english so Skyrim isn't too. I' using mods, but I didn't uploadet any of them to the Kit.

My question now is, can I make mods without the update.esm data or is it requierd? If it is, how to fix the problem?

I'm sorry if I misspelled or translated something wrong, my english isn't that well...

Thanks for any help you can get me,

You can make mods without loading the update.esm. Your problems comes from strings that are probably missing. Do a "verify game cache" in Steam and it'll download the missing files. After that, you should be able to load update.esm in the CK.

What about uploading to the steam workshop?
