I've spent about four straight days re-modding my Skyrim and slowly working through BOSS errors and CTDs. I've mostly got everything sorted (Boss has 0 warnings, 25 unknown; bashed load all green except 1) but I'm struggling to fix a current freeze/CTD issue and I'm hoping someone here might take a second to eyeball my mod list (and point out that 'duh, X and Y don't work together').

I start a new game each time I test it (removing mods each time) and the game seems to run perfectly fine for up to twenty minutes, sometimes less than ten seconds. I have tried the 'skip opening' mod and run in different directions but there doesn't seem to be any common elements to the times when it freezes.

One of the fixes I added for infinite load screens (safety load mod) may be responsible for the game sometimes freezing instead of just CTDing.

Any ideas?

25 unknown mods: Use LOOT, it's the new and upgraded version of BOSS. BOSS is no longer being updated.

Did you read the LOOT log??....IT really should have complained about of number of things wrong with this load order. Read it carefully. I can point to 2 things at least. Copy the Entire right side of the Loot log and paste in a spoiler here...as i cant copy and paste from what you posted as a load order...

Can't find a log - do you mean the report? All it throws up are a few dirty edits, most in the unofficial patches or official DLC.

Non-offical mods marked as dirty are:

Spoiler
All except CoT patch and the armor complilation are old and have worked without issue.

I can't seem to copy-paste anything from loot...

I've gone over it again for potentially conflicting or out of order mods and all I can think of is that maybe somehow some of the new visual mods aren't playing well. I've checked all their nexus pages for advised load order and compatibility. but... no dice.

Here's the shortlist of my visual mods, in their load order - anything jump out as conflicting?

Open the LOOT log (yes the report)...Highlight the entire >.Right side > press [ctrl]+C...then in a spoiler her Press [CTRL]+ V  that is old fashioned way to copy paste. It works here is an example.

 

Spoiler
Warning Massive list above..:)

 

IF it can do it for MY massive load order...lol

 

FYI..you have 2 Nights levels loading AND 2 Patches for nights level lighting.

Oh sweet. For some reason, Ctrl C simply would not work. But the ole right-click-copy did.


Spoiler


It always says GenerateFNISforUsers (which doesn't seem capable of 'seeing' any new animation mods, nor 'unseeing' deleted ones) but I'm ignoring that for now. Fixed.

 

Which are the 2 night levels/patches for night levels?
I thought Immersive Interiors might be an issue but the nexus page says it works fine with ENB, weather and Enhanced lights n FX.

These are active at the same time.


ClimatesOfTamriel-Nights-Level-4.esp
ClimatesOfTamriel-Nights-Level-5.esp
 
CoT-WeatherPatch_NL2.esp
CoT-WeatherPatch_NL3.esp
 

 

They don't even match...I do not use CoT But i would figure, if you load ONE Nights level 4 then you would need the Corresponding Patch..IE Patch NL4 

 

NL= Night level.

 

Could be way wrong here let someone that uses CoT weigh in , but having used mods for many many years this is the norm..ONE mod to set the night level. and one Patch that would match that mod. 

 

Heck too many people use CoT, gonna have to download that and have a look around....I found no need, as with the Default weather, and a lightning mod i have already been Struck by Lightning TWICE. LOL good thing it does not kill, just slightly wound ya.

Ah, good point. Maybe I somehow ran the installer twice? :/ ?

No matter. Let's tweak that and try again... *crosses fingers*

Damn. The only change was that this time it CTD instead of freezing. *strangles mods*

Okay, trying again. Thanks anyway, the help is appreciated. :smile:

Edit: I've added the results of my papyrus log (select excerpts) along with my attempts to fix em. If anything works, I'll post it here. If not, maybe it'll be of some help to other people experiencing similar issues.

By the way, freezes are caused by overexerted hardware (usually your GPU) and filled up memory (VRAM) Run the skyrim performance monitor, play for 10-15 minutes and post the log it gives you here.
