Crash Upon Entering Camp After Completing Oghren's Old Flame

[nandrovar]

So I just got to Lake Calenhad Docks (recently finished Orzammer and Shale's quest, with Urn of Sacred Ashes and Leliana's Past before that), did Oghren's Old Flame, and when I go back to camp afterwards, I get a crash during the loading screen. I've tried multiple save files from before completion of Oghren's Old Flame and this does not happen. I have already talked to Oghren after the quest and it seemed fine. I'm not sure what's going on here, and am worried for my playthrough. Anyone experienced anything similar?

Do you have any mods installed? If so, what are they?

That's everything I can think of. Do you have an idea of what in here may cause a consistent crash of this nature? And thanks for your help in this.

You aren't using the one mod I know of that can cause Party Camp crashing, tmp7704's apostate clothing, but Improved Atmosphere includes at least some of those model ports. Other than that, nothing on your list jumps out at me.

 

Some things I'd try before doing intensive troubleshooting:

 

• patch the game EXE with either the 4GB Patch or LAA (Large Address Aware) if you haven't already
• remove JB3 textures from override
• temporarily lower the graphics settings

 

If that doesn't let you load into party camp, then you may have to go through a process of elimination to find what is causing the issue:

• remove all override mods and see if the issue persists.
• If it goes away, add mods back to the override in small batches until the issue re-occurs
• when issue does show up again, remove the last batch of mods installed and add them back one at a time
• if the issue persists without any mods in override, then go through the process with the DAzips

it's a tedious process but really the only way to locate the cause of an uncommon mod issue... lucky for you, your install isn't heavily modded. (I've had to use that process with nearly 100 DAzips and around 300 override mods... that's 3 days out of my life I'll never get back).

Alright, I'll try those and let you know how that goes. Thank you so much for helping with this.

Figured it out. In Ferelden Pack, larmor_wardens.uti was the culprit. I had Light Warden Armor equipped on Leliana, which apparently made Camp crash while loading. As soon as I deleted that it runs fine again. Gunna run without that file's file and see how that goes. Thank you so much for your help.
