meagermantis Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 i'm using the origin version of DAO ultimate addition, pathed to 1.05. i'm on windows 8.1. i have these mods installed, sorted by dazips, and then overrides: DAZIPS:awakening return to ostagar stone prisoner feastday gifts feastday pranks darkspawn chronicles blightblood (origins and awakening) golems of amgarrak golems might (origins and awakening) lelianas song battledress of the provocateur (origins and awakening) wardens keep witch hunt witchcraft (origins and awakening) bulwark of the true king (origins and awakening) bregans bow (origins and awakening) pearl of the anointed (origins and awakening) memory band feral wolf charm guildmasters belt band of fire dalish promise ring collectors edition the edge embris many pockets help of the deep the lucky stone the lions paw blood dragon armor mark of vigilance amulet of the war mage the wicked oath advanced party 1.3 alley of murders auto-loot awakening in the OC armor of sentinel character respec addon v1.6 dalish mage origin extra dog slot v1.41 dog class modifier extended dog talents elvenhan weapons expanded inventory leliana songs even more advanced tactics 0.913 morrigan restoration patch nightfall bloom no helmet hack 1.6 nude variety polygamy quartermaster tolby extended shale talents skip the fade song of the rose armor of the sten spell shaping the ivory tower the winter forge two spec sten underworld armor lock bash metagame itemsOVERRIDES:make console visible dalish mage dialogue fix skip ostagar anto hairstyles anto hairstyles 2 bidelles cosmetics CC tints and tones chargen package dont worry, be hairy FD skins hairstyles all in one headdresses hairstyles all in one HF LOTC's hairstyles LOTC's eyelashes LOTC's eye textures more hairstyles PT vibrant colors tucked hair electrified wynn morrigan face morph add item deluxe NBAIO NVariety v4 combat lag reducer awakening in the OC shops remove equipment restrictionsNow, for my problem: i've been playing for quite some time, with little to no problem. i follow everyone's advice and restart my game every hour or two to avoid memory leakage. and by and large, it's gone off without a hitch. that is, until i entered redcliffe. i got the town ready, and tolled the mayor, i was ready to start the battle. no cutscene played, there was no green smoke, and the skeletons wouldn't come down the hill by themselves (i had to aggro each group as they summoned.) further, damage and effects for all of my party, and the ally's actions, were significantly delayed: the animations for their spells/attacks would play, but the enemies wouldn't respond for 10-30 seconds later. i could barely survive, because this made using healing poultices/spells worthless, and also allowed enemies to hurt me, and mine (which all seemed to occur in sync with their hits) far longer than they should have been able to do so. finally, i gave up trying to kill them off in game, and i just spammed the "runscript killallhostiles" console command. once that was over, the after fight cutscene proceeded as normal. finally, moving up to entering the fade to free connor from the demon (with the circle's help), interesting bug but didn't have any bearing on gamplay itself here: the desire demon in the last area of the fade spawned inside the ground, about halfway up ( i tried to upload a screenshot, but the file was too big) every conversation about 5-10 seconds in, slows down almost entirely. each time i spoke to the fake connor, when i spoke to the actual demon, talking to isolde and teagan afterwards, connor after curing him, and once i finally got back to camp, even my companions/ the elf from TWF (she's new, from the last time i installed it) i have scoured google, the nexus forums, the EA forums, everywhere i know to look. and, while i find people who have had a similar issue, i have yet to find any actual answers, or fixes. to date, i have tried using origins repair utility, dropping my video settings to bare minimum (disabling vertical sync, AA, lowest resolution setting, lowest settings for each slider, and disabling shadows in the ini), disabling sound ( i got a CTD while loading camp). i would have tested my mods, but when i disable all of them using DAOMM, my game crashes when i try to force load the save (i cant very well figure out if it's one of my mods, if i cant get into the save without them, can i?) if ANYONE has a fix i've yet to come across, please let me know.
