Highly unorthodox CtD, at a loss.

Post » Sun Dec 09, 2012 5:26 pm

I've got a 90% reliable Skyrim with mods install running fine right now, but I'm running into issues where upon the death of anything, usually by my hand and via archery, would cause a CtD.

Now its rather specific in circumstance. It will be an arrow kill, the CtD happens at the moment of impact, and location, position, stance, enemy type, enemy action, and other factors do not matter.

Thing is, the CtD in question is a huge rarity, and is only exacerbated by mods that affect AI patterns, like Wet and Cold.

my load order follows from BOSS:

I'm personally at a loss. I think its Realistic Ragdolls and Force (though this has never caused an issue for me before), the custom archery animation pack, or the Arrow and Bolt Tweaks mod (also never had an issue for me before).

I'm open to ideas on the potential reasons behind such an obscure CtD.
