Hey guys, I'm looking for some help on finding which mod is the root of my CTD's near Riverwood and Ivarstead. I use SUM for patching, I read each mod before installation to ensure I have all the reqs, also using BOSS, SKSE, and TESVEdit. Currently from the time I click my shortcut to the time I have a black screen that says bethesda is about 21 seconds. In game everything works well and runs fine until I get near Riverwood or Ivarstead. I either CTD or the game slows to a crawl, I mean like a frame every few seconds crawl. I'm assuming I have some conflicting mods that change the environment or something in those areas....any ideas on how to figure this out? Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions!

I'm using a 6870. I turned off my antivirus, uninstalled AMD CCC & manager, then used driver sweeper, then rebooted & installed 12.2 but not it runs like she used to 45-80 fps but I have artifacts? I wish computers could just work lol. Anyways I had the messages of errors occurred during installation or what ever it says but I checked the log & display derivers were successful along with all other components

The only change I've made in the past 2 weeks of not playing skyrim is updating my drivers to 12.4, is anyone else having issues with 12.4 drivers? I was running 45-80 FPS but now I'm only getting 6-30 tops?

I doubt it is possible until the toolkit is released but anyone up for giving us a mod where NPC's use candle light spell or torches at night?!?! Would be greatly appreciated & bring more realism to the game. I use a lighting mod that makes night time actually dark & people look kind of dumb walking around in the pitch black of night. Makes sneaking a little too easy & unrealistic in my opinion. Just thought I'd suggest this since I haven't found it anywhere.

I was wondering if anyone could make or show me how to mod Shadowcloak to last forever?

Well I didn't find it on here at first bc I guess it is an Aura shout bug. Changing your sex fixes it but only if you stay in third person. If you switch perspectives it comes back or when you first boot up the game it comes back as well. I doubt the patch next week will fix this but hopefully the community will once the tool kit is released.

sex change does work but it is not a permanent fix. This glitch is from the Aura Whisper shout. I've used sex change command about 6 times. It always ends up coming back. very annoying after a while.

ok found the reason behind it! Hope the modding community fixes it bc I doubt Bethesda will

anyone? I'm not sure what caused this. I uninstalled all mods vid nexus mod manager & manually deleted them still have the eye issue! well manually deleted the ones I knew their location lol

I was wondering if any of you many talented modders could help me find the out what is causing my minor issue with glowing eyes & sockets if I listed off all my installed mods?!? I'm not sure if this is pointless or not but I'm not a modder so I do not understand where this issue came from. I turned in a quest for the Dark Brotherhood & noticed a slight glow stream when I turned my head. My eyes & sockets glow a bluish white & have a stream when I move my head. The only thing I installed recently was the black smith mod where u can smelt down armor & craft more things. Could it be the order I have the esm & esp's in or does that not matter?

Would anyone be interested in making a mod to allow poisons to be added to arrows & bolts? If at all possible even make it so the poison runs out after a certain number of shots instead of the lame timer. Anyone who even reads & considers this I appreciate it, hope someone will tackle this.

no it wasn't debatable it broke the game period. It aimed archery towards soloing the game, he was banned anyways so no more mod. You're wrong its gone tough. lol.

no there is NOT a mod for it there used to be Better Archery which breaks the entire game b/c it is summons custom fix to archery before patch 1.02 & is completely OP. I think I already found someone to tackle it anyways. So in a few days hopefully we'll have this mod that should of been in the game from the start. I'm trying to talk him into making poison run out in 10,20, 30 shots instead of that dumb timer the poisons are currently on.

I'm not sure how hard this mod would be to do or if it already exist & I missed it but I'm hoping someone would please make a mod for me that allows rogues to use poisons on bows or arrows which ever. I can't believe something that has been done for years & years in so many cultures can not be done in this game. This is obviously not game breaking but a big let down for me. Please anyone with the skill consider this mod for me & the community. A chance to correct a major mistake by Bioware. Moved to Dragon Age: Origins Mod Requests forum. -myrmaad

Thanks for the response, I read 2 reviews saying there were a few references from the 1st book but 2 side notes saying if you're intellectual enough & a avid reader it shouldn't be too hard to pick up on the well explained references & still get a solid idea of what they are referring to plus if you're mostly reading it to find out about Duncan you have even less to worry about. It's not a problem for me now b/c my girlfriend basically gave away she got me the 1st on for my birthday but I bought the calling as an xmas gift & was hoping my cousin wouldn't be lost without reading The Stolen Throne firsts. Anyways Merry Christmas!!! & thanks again!

I went out to get the first book as an xmas gift but they only had The Calling so I got one as a gift & one for myself but does anyone know if I should read the 1st one or if I can read the second one & it will still be enjoyable & make sense???

I played hard on my first play through never lowered the difficulty & I made Anora Queen. My 2nd play through I played on Nightmare & didn't let my main character fall the entire game to get the "I'm kind of a big deal" achievement. Second play through was much easier, I had Alistair & Anora marry & my dual wielding warrior journeyed with leliana. How long did your guys play through's take? my 1st was 81 hours & my 2nd was 67!!!

I was already interested in the books but after reading some of the replies on here I plan to spend Christmas money on the first one at least. I was unsure what exactly they were about & I haven't taken the time to research them but if they involve back story on a lot of the main characters & rich lore not just some junk knock-off money grubbing scheme then I am very interested. Thanks for the informative responses guys, I must also say so far these forums seem a lot better than the junk they offer on the official forums. I've been harassed by moderators so many times for voicing my opinion within forum guide lines only to be banned from the site. lol. Enough of my rant. Thanks for the interesting post.

I think/hope the plot will be continued before that since Bioware commented saying they plan a 2 year window of DLC & expansions plus they said you could play past the end of the game eventually with one of the expansions. I'll have to google later to find my sources but that was also months ago so things could of changed aside from the 2 year plan. I really do not expect much with EA being involved. I'm sure we're going to see 1 or more $5 DLC every month till DAO2 :( Like you said though i really, really hope they continue the story of Morrigan b/c I'm curious to know what happens or what options we might be given to like hunt her down or send out a patrol of guards to hunt her down, unlock a hidden quest of what her intentions were with the child. I'm sure Bioware will do something interesting with it eventually.
