AtomicGoatBreath Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) Hey everyone ! So, I don't really know if I'm posting on the right place - if not, i'm sorry, this is my first time posting on any forum ever -, but I'm in need of some assistance from people more experienced than I. I'm running Skyrim AE and I encountered a problem that I've seen many people online talk about when it comes to this version: when I loaded my latest save file, I could only see a black screen, all the while still being able to hear background music and other noises. From my understanding, this stems from the fact that AE runs scripts faster and doesn't load them completely (? i'm not sure if that's the exact explanation but keep in mind I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about and these are just abstract concepts to me); also, apparently there's no fix for this yet, at least not one that I've seen. I tried loading previous saves, but got the same result. The only save that worked was really far back, right after I started the Dawnguard DLC (and my most recent one was from when I finished the main quest after killing harkon). So, really, not all is lost, but just the thought of having to traipse around in the soul cairn and find jiub's goddamned pages all over again is enough for me to want to fix this issue by any means possible. So I set out on a mission to find out what the problem is. I opened the bad save file on resaver, hoping it would be a magical fix-all, and after running a scan it told me the file was missing two script instances of DLC1LegendaryDragonScript, as shown in the picture I uploaded. I've scoured the internet for any post with even the slightest mention of a problem similar to this, but either I'm too dumb to understand what the people in the programming community say (which is a very real possiblity) or there is no one writing specifically about this issue and, most importantly, how to fix it. I wondered if there is a way I can edit the save file to add those missing instances and make it work, but this may not even be doable since, again, I'm not a programmer and don't know what is possible/impossible to do here. Also, even if this could theoretically be done, I don't know what I would have to write/add to the save file or where to write/add it. So, with all of this said, if anyone knows what I can do to fix my problem, please help me. TLDR for you brutes: missing DLC script instances from save file. please. help.
