Skyrim SE - Infinite Loading Screen in Jorrvaskr (and Elder Scroll (Dragon) flashback)


Vespulan

Recommended Posts

Hello friends,

I am suffering with a persistent (but changeable) bug in my modded Skyrim SE. Every time I attempt to enter Jorrvaskr (Champions guild HQ in Whiterun) I encounter an Infinite Loading Screen (black, sound still playing. Only way to escape the game is to open task manager and blindly end the process) OR I am able to enter but after 1-3 seconds encounter a freeze and again have to end process. I have scoured the internet for similar issues and have read about creating a SKSE.ini (which I did) however from my understanding this resolved an issue with Oldrim not being able to utilise more than 4GB of RAM, something which has since been resolved in Vanilla. I can re-create this on my main save file, and also creating a new save file. Using Alternative Start I can select to become a new member of the Champ guild, sleep in the bed, and ILS. This also happens on my main save when attempting to read the Elder Scroll at Throat of the World (this time hanging on a white screen), however this is a more difficult one to diagnose on a new save...

I have already gutted a handful of mods and am continuing to go through one by one (and updating drivers etc); my main save is in a good place with the exception of these two particular locations so I am remise to completely reset back to Vanilla in fear of ruining my hand-crafted physics style and bonk mods.

My questions to you the community are: ~Has anyone encountered and fixed this issue recently? ~Is there a way for me to create a crash log file for ILS? ~At a glance of my modlist/load order, does anything appear drastically wrong?

AFAIK, a hang such as you describe will not register on crash loggers.  Have you looked in your C:\Users\"User Name"\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SKSE folder to see if any of the startup logs there can point you towards a problem?  If you arrange the logs in descending last modified order, you can focus on the last few to update, and speed your search.

Which of the mods in your posted LO installs the Champion's Guild?  I am not familiar with that one - maybe you didn't install a required file (or two)?

The latest crash log I have in there related to an OStim animation... (un)fortunately I have not experienced any crashes since I noticed this ILS bug that have produced a log from Crash Logger. Is there any way to force Skyrim to crash on ILS?

Sorry that was my mistake, I meant Companions guild but I had the adoring fan saying 'Grand Champion' running through my head as I was typing 🙃 The building in question to my knowledge has no mods directly effecting it - I have mods that change interior lighting/sound and of course mods changing NPCs, but I cannot see why an ILS would occur there and also at Throat of the World.

Apologies, I thought you meant explicitly Crash Logger - yes I do have those, I have 43 that appear to have generated from my last session and 3 updated last - skse64, skee64, PrivateProfileRedirector. I've had a look inside but it is all gobbledygook to me, is there anything specific I should be looking for? There are a lot of 'invalid' messages in the skee64 one but they appear to be too common to be discretely effecting Jorrvaskr, although in both the new save and old save the last thing to be loaded in was:  meshes\armor\hide\f\bootslight.tri (44805 bytes). Is it possible it is failing to load the next armour in the list? 

Thank you for the help so far!

skee64 is racemenu, so if there is an NPC inside Jorrvaskr with a problem, then it could cause problems in loading.  For SKSE64, you could search the log file for 'did not load', or something similar.  I am like you, I don't know a lot about the various lines in the reports.  It is just probable that the problem causing the hang-up is being caught in one of those three logs.

I went through those three logs and couldn't find anything glaringly obvious - nothing referencing error messages or not loading. I spent the morning spawning in the three NPCs from the Alduin flashback and a handful of NPCs from inside Jorrvaskr and didn't have any freezing which makes me think it is something else. If I remember correctly there is a brawl going on inside when you first enter, could this be ridiculously script heavy for some reason? 

I went through SSEEdit to check for error but again nothing largely concerning there - is there a way to get a list of all the items/NPCs/meshes inside Jorrvaskr so I can got through 1 by 1 and try to isolate the freeze?

I thought that there was a script somewhere that allowed you to get a list of at least some of the above, but I have never used it, and can't remember which pack of script/SKSE script addons may have it.

A list of meshes might be a frightfully long list, even just for Jorrvaskr.

I have solved it!  The problem was with Beards of Power and High Poly True to Vanilla NPCs - after some deep diving, I found that the latest BoP for high-poly version was not compatible with HPTtVNPCs, I had to use the Polymorph version instead. I will change the title of this thread to [Solved] but I would like it to remain here in case anyone else runs in to this particular issue and it can help them as well. 

Thank you 7531Leonidas for your responses!
