FPS drops to 1 when looking in a certain direction

[SunnyTheCat]

Hello fine folks! Perhaps one of you can help me with this issue.

 

Not sure what causes this. Upon cell transition, my FPS suddenly drops to 1 when I'm looking in a certain direction. Here are the steps leading up to this:

1) Create a new character with Alternate Start

2) Pick Stormcloak soldier

3) Leave the Palace of Kings

4) Enter the inn in Winterhold

5) Leave the inn

6) Leave the city through the main gate

 

From this point on, if I keep looking in the direction I'm pointed at upon this cell transition, my FPS is always 1. If I look to the side, or up/down, it goes back to normal 50 FPS.

 

Any idea what may be causing this?

Mine does that too, maybe its the lighting? I would like to know this gets a bit annoying :confused:

It seems to be caused by a mod. I tried re-installing the game and testing it out after each mod. But it just seems to occur randomly.

Alright, so it seems to be happening as I install graphical mods and as my Texture folder increases. I may be terribly wrong here, but this may occur as I install a, say, Skills Menu retexture mod. But why? I'm not even in that menu. Why would it cause FPS to drop so drastically? Not 1-2 FPS, but all the way down from 50 FPS to 1 FPS!

yup same thing for me, got better when I turned down sight distance, although my Pc was able to handle ultra+ with 60 fps everywhere. Doesn´t seem to be a mod problem though, because I just reinstalled skyrim and started a new save without mods, and still dropped to 1 fps in some locations :/
