Side question: Ive seen people say DR needs to be loaded after bashed patch, but BOSS orders it before the patch. Why is this, and what is correct?

 

Are there any incompatibilities that stand out here? I have a missing texture here and there that annoys me but other than that, each of these mods appear to be working so Im not sure how to troubleshoot the CTD. (Is there a way I can track down these missing textures as well? Its insignificant b/c its just one here and there, but it bugs me.

 

The crash itself happens without any obvious trigger. I'll just be running or swimming and it'll freeze up.

 

Any help is very appreciated.

Well I don't really have answer for the CTD but I have Bashed Patch after DR5. To track down missing meshes you can use Form ID finder http://tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16704 Needs OBSE 18 beta 4 or higher

Thanks for the info on form finder mccrab!

 

I seem to remember a patch for DR that is supposed to fix a CtD issue so Im exploring that right now

BOSS's placement of DR5 before the BP is because the latest DR5 doesn't require post-BP loading. And yeah, there is a new DR5 patch available. :)

 

There's also a good thread for FCOM users in the Bethsoft mod forums, and if problems persist, you might want to check it out. I only use Fran's and Mart's, myself, so I can't help you with finetuning that.

A freeze is different from a CTD (Crash to desktop) and may need a different solution.

 

Here is a link to Bben's Crash Help

I'm also having a CTD problem now. I've looked all through Bbens Crash help and found I have already done most of them(some I haven't had any problems with to begin with). My CTDs aren't area specific, more like they are time specific. I already have Fast Exit2, and Oblivion Crash Prevention plug-ins for OBSE. I have the latest updates for Oblivion, both official and unofficial. I'm about to try out GameBooster that Bben had mentioned, but not sure what else it could turn off. Can anyone give me some other ideas of how to prevent this?
