Infamous "CTD on startup" Tried all metods of fixing it no sucess.

[Masonman248]

Hi, I have been getting the pesky CTD on startup whenever I press "continue" it starts to load and then BOOM crash. It has been annoying me for a while now I have tried all the possible methods of fixing it, Using LOOT, tes5edit, etc. And it hasn't been helping me. At first, I thought it was a problem with SKSE, then my ENB, and then a few other things but it was neither of them.

tes5edit says everything is fine but I still CTD. Please help :sad:

[mooncarver]

at this is point it's rather difficult to tell which mods might cause problems due to the sheer size of your list. I'd generally recommend going through all of them looking for missing compatibility patches. you can also take a look at your papyrus log, especially the latest lines might point to a conflict. creating a bashed patch might be a good idea, too.

 

other things to consider: do older saves work? what is your location in the last save? how far are you into the game? did the ctd's start out of the blue or did they gradually become more frequent.

Thanks, I will try that, and the CTDs started right after I restarted my PC, and I already beat Alduin however I will try a new game or an old save.

 

 

EDIT: It does work on a new game, perhaps something is wrong with my old save?

Sounds like a corrupted save game happens sometimes, it's why I always have two save files per save game, I use one save file the one day and then if it's broken I can always go back to the other one and I will only have lost one day of play.

[mooncarver]

you can try the following:

 

1. make a BACKUP of the broken save

2. download and run the skyrim save tool

3. press "open" and pick the broken save

4. after it has finished loading, press "fix all" and afterwards press "fixscriptinstances"

 

if a certain number of scripts has been removed, try loading the save again (ingame I mean). if the program says 0 of 0... instead, then the problem is somewhere else.
