Greetings fellow Nexus denizens and Skyrim fanatics! My latest frusteration in my constant quest for the "perfect" playthrough (you know the one we're all planning but never quite done with) has left me at quite the impasse. When crossing the bridge leading away from Dragon Bridge and towards the Ambushed Caravan my game freezes upon crossing the edge by the caravan. Similarly my game will also freeze if I attempt to run from Solitude towards Dragon Bridge somewhere around the 2/3rds mark. At first I suspected that my RAM usage was topping out. Several optimizations later and after many sessions of Skyrim Performance Monitor I've nixed that as my cause. The second theory was that something which edited exterior world meshes in that area must be at fault. Removing both WATER and ETaC resulted in no change. Next potential culprit was script bloat. But my logs showed no consistent errors and the game worked past all the errors at different times. For all of these tests I used new games. Either spawning near solitude (docks or proudspire) to run towards Dragon Bridge, or spawning at the Inn in Dragon Bridge and running either to solitude and back or towards the ambushed caravan. The only freezes I've had are when approaching Dragon Bridge from the north via the path (diverted a few times half way and swam the rest with no issue) and crossing the "bridge o' doom" from the north (aborting mission halfway across and swimming around the "meridian of sorrowful freezes" works fine). Something fishy must be happening when I do these specific actions and no when else. To make things weirder if I save game right in front of the "freeze zone" and then proceed to cross it, I DONT FREEZE. Any input into this situation would be appreciated as I tire of sending wave after wave of poor newbile dovahkiin to their imminent non-existence (RIP: fasadfadfadf 1-2xx). To help speed things along my process for ensuring stability is thus: BOSS ==> Tes5Edit ==> WryeBash ==> ProcPatches (SUM) Launchers used: ATTK, SkSe, ENB Injector Version (Project 0209). Occasionally Tridef3d and SkyrimPerformanceMonitor. Sometimes all at once. Mod list in spoiler tag, attached most recent papyrus log in case anyone was curious.

Very informative post Dark0ne, Despite my 4 year tenure as a nexus member I've never really perused much past the download links. On a whim I decided to read this post and was shocked to hear that this entire site is run by only 5 devs! With the quality of both this site and the NexusModManager I always assumed that more people and money were involved. Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate the time and effort you all have poured into this site. I'll be more mindful of the community activities from now on and be on the lookout for anything I can do to help improve this site and support the community it created. Couldn't imagine playing TES games without you all. (Thus ends my gushing, you'll hear from me again in another 4 years lol)

I recently re-installed skyrim on my new rig and got it up and running with my favorite mods. I was hoping a clean install and careful mod installation would result in a more stable experience. However I seem to have perfectly replicated the exact same problems I was experiencing on the old machine. I have random CTDs and general instability in the area between Riverwood and Whiterun (Extending from halfway down the path along the falls up to the area just past all the farms but before the stables). The most crashes happen at the falls and at the corner of the farm closest to the city (where you find the companions fighting a giant). Casting flames seems to have some effect on stability as well but won't always result in CTD. I have heard that the issue may be maxing out VRAM or reaching a critical mod count. However I suspect it has something to do with spawning NPCs as the crashes are different depending on the (in game) time of day. If it's any help I enabled error logging and the final error (of many) reads: [08/16/2012 - 05:27:52AM] error: Property BloodFX on script zbloodnpcbleed attached to Active effect 2 on (FF000D0B) cannot be bound because <NULL form> (0202DF26) is not the right type if that's any help at all.
