What's this screenshot? Looks a bit incomplete to me. lol

I SOLVED THE PROBLEM, for me anyways!
My windows vista 32-bit only uses 2GB virtual memory by default. I enabled the 3GB SWICTH (just google for it) and now all my CTD's are gone. I mean ALL OF THEM! not only near riften.

Well, ok, i still have freezes sometimes in the triangle northwest from Darkbrotherhood sanctuary, but that's pretty sure because I lack Video memory (only 512mb and i have some texture replacers, for the mountains f.e.).

I think the CTD's near riften wear related to my increased ugridstoload=7 and with only 2GB Virtual memory it simply couldn't store the huge information for this area.

That's good that you fixed it.

My picture was of my character outside of Riften, large chunks of elements were missing.

Copy and paste your Papyrus log, that way we can figure out the problem mod. Papyrus help

Well, it's supposed to be missing when you are outside riften because the riften cell isn't loaded completely. same as when your in whiterun for example and look from the dragonsreach balcony, you'll see a pretty empty land under you (the land outside of whiterun). open cities mod would fix it but the wall would be still missing then i think.
can you go through the missing wall or is it just invincible?

Oh, I can go into the uninhabited city while still in the Skyrim area. Actually, many other interior areas are missing as well, leaving me to rely on my jumping skills to jump onto objects.

Well I fixed a lot of my crash issues by simply changing my High texture settings to Medium. Of course this sacrificed a bit of "eye-candy" in terms of visuals and it was well worth the trade off. Before the change if I even thought about getting near Riften it would crash and sometimes around Markath or Solitude or the fields west of Whiterun. So if anyone is running Skyrim on a low-end pc, try it on medium textures and see if any change occurs. Obviously this decreases load times as well. I understand that some mods require hi-rez texture settings so this may not help many players but so far it's worked for me.

From the looks of things, most people on this thread seem to have stability issues with their computers more so than problems around Riften.

I just found when I travel down the road at the rear entrance to Riften, which is where my horse was unfortunately waiting for me, that I seem to reliably crash.. I traveled up that road from Falkreath to get to Riften so I don't understand why it would be crashing now. I thought it was a music addition that I just found on steam and downloaded from the nexus.. I disabled that and it still happens, it was the only major change to my mods, everything else has been value tweaks made by myself in the CK. I travelled through the lake swimming to my horse at the rear entrance the first three times, I get about 50-200 feet from Riften and it crashes. The last attempt I made was to simply run around, the tweaks I was making were related to my walk, run, and sprint speed so it was much faster to run around Riften clockwise.. that time I crashed before seeing my horse.

I believe I installed sneak tools while in Riften, and I have had moonpath installed since day 1.
I will try deactivating moonpath first since I haven't used it yet.
Then try the 31 day wait thing that somebody mentioned..
Then with great reluctance I will deactivate sneak tools.

I will try to post back what fixed it, if anything.

-----------
Nothing worked, I just finished setting timescale to 65000 and waiting a few minutes for a month to pass by. I have already deleted moonpath and I have tried disabling all the new mods to my load list.

The only thing I think could be affecting things that I haven't tried yet is the dynamic weather mod I have installed.
Wasn't the weather mod either. I am going to just fast travel out and hope that it is just Riften. I don't like the rift much anyways.

My only theory which has remained untested thus far, is that I am pushing my NB too far too fast. You see my horse sprints quite fast, speedmult is at something like 180.. so in theory perhaps I am loading and unloading too many cells in too short a period of time. This will take me some time to test

Solution: Unknown

I mounted my horse as I had previously done, I rode away from Riften down the road towards the pass through the mountains; I did not gallop as I had been previously doing for the previous crashes. I rode the road all the way through Helgen; I learned that you can lockpick gates on horse back!! Did you know that? Rode on down the road out of Helgen all the way down to the lake where I attempted to gallop through too many cells or whatever so I'd get another CTD.. didn't crash at all, I did sputter for a moment around the end though.

I fast travelled back to Riften and Galloped down the same road I simply rode down the last time but galloped into my desktop the 10-15 times before that.. Nothing, no crash.. So my problem is mysteriously gone.

Maybe the textures were still cached and if I were to load up the game at the gates of Riften and do it again it would crash because the textures can't load fast enough.. I don't know.

I will have my eye forever on the look out for ties to this crash now, but I think this is the last bit I will put on here. I am just glad it is gone.

(Edit: I also had all my mods loaded except for moonpath when doing the above "solution")

hi um... i need help when i try to get to Riften it crash after loading i did talk to the guard and everyting but it crash in the middle of loading and i dont know what to do, plx hel me out.. T_T
(oh btw i did download mods too so maybe thats why my laptop crash but i did turn of the mods and it didnt help)

[AndrealphusVIII]

I'm having CTDs near Riften as well. The only mod close to a "house mod" I'm using is Honeystrand Meadery. Each crash I took a look at the papyrus log and I didn't see anything special about the scripts.

 

I'm thinking of trying the following:

• ENBoost
• Savegame Cleaner
• Turning off Honeystrand Meadery
• Waiting 30 days in an interior cell

I hope I will get this solved soon...
