CTD, CTD, CTD, CTD....seriously?

Post » Thu Aug 16, 2012 6:19 am

So, the other night I gave up on playing Skyrim. It crashed. Constantly, for no apparent reason. The location was Anise's Cabin. I couldn't go near it. So, this evening I was feeling the need for some Skyrim. and I got as far as the river near Anise's Cabin. Crash.

Then I tried fast traveling to Riverwood. Crash.

Whiterun? Crash.

I reloaded near Anise's cabin and ran. I mean RAN across the river to the road. Saved. Began walking. Crash.

Reloaded, RAN truing to make it to Riverwood. CRASH.

Got as far as the gate to Riverwood. Saved. Started walking into town. The old goat near the blacksmith started talking to me. CRASH.

Made it as far as the Inn. Tried opening the door. CRASH.

Got into the Inn. CRASH.

Tried to leave the Inn. CRASH.

Can you see where I'm going with this?

Now I assumed it was a mod. So, I slowly began going through them one at a time. Crash. Crash. Crash. Crash.

Removed all the mods. Crash.

Added them one at a time. CRASH.

I'm blaming 1.7. Although, I'm still not certain it is 1.7. I still believe its a mod but I can't find it. At this point I'm fed up. I can't even get to Dawnguard because, CRASH.

So I'm here. Maybe someone has an idea. So, here is a list of the mods I'm running. It's also a list of mods I'm not running. Because I've gone through them. I can't find the problem.

I'm Running Wyre Bash 300 (PYTHON) as well as BOSS.

I'm also getting a lot of purple/black and yellow textures. I have absolutely no damn idea what is going on. I started to play at 1800 EST. it is now 2023 EST (that's 8:30p,) and I've done absolutely nothing in game other than look at the load screen, then Wyre, the load screen, Wyre. I'm sick of it. If anyone knows what mod is causing this please help. Because I'm at my wits end.

Says you should only use one of the Cloaks plugins. You currently have three active. Choose which one you want and deactivate the other two.

If you disabled all of your mods and you're still crashing my only suggestion would be to reinstall, especially since you're seeing some weird texture issues. Have you tried going to any other places though? Any other cities, caves, etc? Does it always happen at a certain length of gameplay no matter where you are?

As an added note, Sounds of Skyrim has a known save bloating glitch when you remove it. What size is your save file?

To my knowledge a CTD means your saved file is corrupted and you have to back a number of saves.

Wrong. That is one possible cause, not the only one. There are many reasons a crash can happen, a borked save is just one of many.

Well it seems for me that's the only reason why my game isn't working, doesn't matter which save I load, it crashes just like he is describing, mind you I have no mods installed.

For you, maybe. Though, that's not the only reason a crash can occur. Just because that's the only reason you crash does not mean it's the only reason crashes occur.

Apologies I shouldn't had said that was the only reason why it's happening, but it's frustrating I can't find a fix for it.

Just deactivating mods doesnt guarantee that the mod has stopped messing your game up. Various scripts and whatnot are actually saved into your saved game if memory serves.

I had an odd issue with a certain dragon in the early main quest being raised from the ground, already dead and 300 feet in the air. I eventually loaded a save, that was before that quest was activated, with all my mods off, and it repeated the error. I then created a new save game, with only a few mods loaded and no issues. Point being, something from one of my mods screwed up my saved file bad.

Personally speaking I have had only a few issues with dawnguard. One being if you talk to a certain elf before journal updates a quest, and select a certain dialog option, the game ctds.. The other, was an annoying werewolf bug, that I havnt seen other folks mention, I started the dlc as a werewolf, and got converted to a vamp. Everything seemed fine and dandy til I revisited some areas I ate some folks at. Then I kept getting that I ate a heart as a werewolf message. Also, guards keep making werewolf comments at me..
