Skyrim CTD at Liar's Retreat

[thecreativeblock]

As I'm currently trying to discover less than 10 places left that I haven't been to in Skyrim, I encountered Liar's Retreat and thought it would be fun to go in and fight off some enemies.

 

Anyways, first room, 8 or something falmers all began attacking. No big deal, because I'm at level 77, about to be at level 78. However, Skyrim crash as I start to beat up the falmers, all in the beginning of that place.

 

I tried googling possible causes or issues relating to Liar's Retreat that could cause crash to desktop and there's nothing. I really want to get through this cave and clear it.

 

I went back in game and it always ctd while at the beginning of the fight, everytime I load it. I refuse to give up on that cave.

 

If you need info about specs or my mod list, I can provide it (if there's a way to export my mod list).

No one got anything for this? I'm having the exact same issue as well. I managed to kill the falmer though, but as I got deeper into the cave, more falmer! So I CTD'd again. Some of the meshes also glitch out on NPCs. For example I had Lydia with me, and her body (except the head) turned black and she was standing in a "T" position but leaned forwards at about a 45 degree angle. I just shrugged that off though and disabled her then re-enabled her and she was fine again, but it was still rather annoying. That didn't cause any crashes, surprisingly, its literally just when I start a fight.

Same CTD problem here. I reloaded from the start of the cave and let my npc's do the fighting which helped. I used getav mood on Lydia at one point which caused a CTD.

console command : Toggle AI off.

It freezes the falmer enemy and allows you to get in. Once in, re-toggle enemy AI via console (console commande : tai) and go about your business.
