Do you normally have good FPS around Solitude (when you are not on this quest?)? Can you both post your load orders, please. This is my load order: ... When i was not in this mission Solitude worked fine, by the way, in the Battle for Whiterun mission i had exactly the same problem, when I exited whiterun to go to the battle the game's fps dropped down to 1 making skyrim unplayable, I had to skip the mission with the console commands. Once i skipped the mission, the whiterun outskirts where the battle takes place became a 60fps area once again. SoS Civilizations does cause a lot of problems, but since your issue only occurs during the battle, I doubt SoS has anything to do with it. I was curious if you had a mod that edited the landscape outside Solitude, which may be having issues when the catapults for the battle load in. I know it's rough because you are getting 1 fps, but could you test if you just wait out Ulfric's speech and then go inside Solitude if your FPS returns to normal? If that's the case, complete the mission, then fast travel from within Solitude to somewhere outside of the Solitude cell (Whiterun, maybe?) and wait there for 3 days, then travel back to the outskirts of Solitude and see if your FPS is normal (by then, the battle landscape changes should revert to normal). If that works, you have some issue either with the landscape or with the major effects happening (fire, explosions, etc) that is causing the FPS issues. Helping you narrow down what mod is causing this might help the original poster, too. Good luck. I've solved the situation, the conflicting mods was SkyBirds http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/23771 , ive updated it to it latest version and the game doesn't lag anymore. What i do have now is a enter-Solitude CTD but i believe that's a totally different matter. Thank you for your help.
