Near 80% crash rate upon exiting to exteriors, sometimes 100% until mods are reinstalled.

Ok, so here's my situation. I got a brand new laptop that has twice the RAM from my PC, and with my PC having crashes so many times for mostly random things (like walking), I was interested in getting FNV over to my laptop with mods to play. I installed mods and tested all of them and they all worked fine at first, but the crashes doesn't happen at the start (meaning no direct mod conflicts...right?), they always happen upon exiting to exteriors. At first, I thought it's just some problem with Goodsprings itself but this problem was everywhere.

 

Here's the general thing surrounding my mods and FNV:

1) I use the legit Steam version.

 

2) I use FNV 4 GB.

 

3) I use NMM for all my mods.

 

4) Crashes ONLY when exiting to exteriors most of the time. Never crashes when moving to interiors. Sometimes, crashes don't happen, but most of the time it does.

 

5) Starting from the most recent save file still leads to the same crashing error. On rare occasions, no crashes occur.

 

6) I was able to circumvent the crashes at the beginning by uninstalling United HUD and then oHUD and then reinstalling them in the order oHUD > uHUD. However, this started to not work the more I play.

 

7) I use Darnified UI along with oHUD and Project Nevada.

 

This thing is really spoiling my playing experience when things crash nearly every 10 minutes, unless I am moving in a huge interior area.

 

Currently, the crash rate is 100% and I'm stuck inside Wolfhorn Ranch after killing a bunch of Vipers. I am unable to get out due to the crash.

 

My load order is this (1 = mod is activated.)

I figured that maybe WARZONES and other mods that modify exterior spawns and stuff could be making it happen, but I've disabled every single one of them to test but the crashes still happen. I've already disabled the battle edition of Mojave Reloaded as it caused crashes before, but it seems to have returned again even without it being turned on.

i tend to crash more on more populated areas. I never crashed at Nipton.

First, try to cut down your load order as much as possible. Even the unchecked ones. From what I can tell, the more mods you have, the greater the chances of a crash. So start merging mods or uninstalling mods to get that load order as low as you can. For myself, I found stability at around 80 to 83 mods.

 

Second, try installing New Vegas Anti-Crash: I had issues similar to you and NVAC pretty much solved 95% of those crashes for me:

Third, try using CASM instead for your saves. Occasionally FNV saves do get occasionally corrupted if you're constantly saving. CASM helps alleviate that:

Thank you. I will try when I have access to my laptop. However, I already have New Vegas Anti Crash. I'm going to try your 1st and 3rd solutions.

[yolothedino]

I have gotten CASM but the same errors occur. I've subverted the crashes by loading a previous save and never going into wolfhorn ranch. Apparently, when I load any kind of saves while in that area, I will immediately crash.

 

now at Novac, and errors still occur with little ways other than luck to subvert it.

Did you cut down your load order? FNV has a max safe load order limit of around 135 or so. Less is obviously better.
