Possible memory issue?

[TheTraveler0001]

So, I've recently started modding NV again since I felt the urge to start another playthrough. I tried my best to take it easy and mod it slowly so I wouldn't run into any issues. However, I have started crashing after a couple minutes of playing. It always goes the same way too: textures start going black in interiors and I either crash when trying to leave/enter a location or just by simply trying to walk from one place to another. I have anti-crash installed so I checked the crash log and it says I'm out of memory (not sure if this is the exact problem though). I do have the 4GB patch installed along with the mod limit fix since my mod list consists of 200. Again, I'm not positive if I'm having memory issues or if it's something else entirely.

Not sure if that's everything but that's all I can dig up for now.

From the 4GB patcher comments...

 

 

Some versions of Windows don't allow the LAA flag to do anything.

You can open the console and type GetIsLaa with xNVSE and JIPLN installed, it should return 2. If it returns 0 then the patch was not applied, if it returns 1 then it was applied but it doesn't work due to your OS or antimalware product(s).

 

It's worth checking because that does sound like a memory issue.

Checked it and it returned 2 so the 4GB patch should be installed then. Any other ideas of what it could be?

The black textures are usually a sign of low memory so I think you're on the right track, are you using a texture replacer? something like the NMC's large textures combined with a high resolution and a lot of AA can chew through a lot of memory, if you have the large one installed try the medium, it doesn't look much different.

Yeah I'm using NMC and a few other smaller texture packs as well. There's also the dragbody overhauls I have installed but I dont know If those can cause issues with memory. I'll try the medium pack though, It's just strange since I used before without any issues arising.

There is this but it can be fiddly to set up properly and it does impact performance. CTD and Memory patch ENBoost at Fallout New Vegas - mods and community (nexusmods.com)

Do I need an ENB for that? I'm only using ReShade right now.

[JimboUK]

It's ENB without the visual effects, it allows for more memory to be used.
