CTD when enter the falkreath hold

[Pharmacon]

Hello folks !

I'm new on the forum and not a native english speaker so excuse me for the possible mistakes.

I hope, I have posted in the right section; I hesitated a long time between "Skyrim Mod Troubleshooting" and "Skyrim Technical Support".
Admin feel free to move my topic to the right section.

I played skyrim for a long time but only recently started to mod it.

So my problem is pretty simple: when I enter in the falkreath hold I get CTD all the time.
Strange enough, it's seemingly not a problem of saving because my save does not grow abnormally and it's the same with a new save.


I want to signal that I experienced another problem before (could be related maybe ?).
I got several freezes which forced me to turn off skyrim and with "Skyrim performence monitor" I noticed that I have exceeded my 2 Go of VRAM.
I uninstalled the Suprem Storm extension for CoT and I never exceeded the 2 Go again.
I let you figure out if this two problems are related.

What're your PC specifications? How often do you CTD, instantly or after some time of playing?

Falkreath hold is one of the more hardware intensive areas because of lake illinata and the massive ammount of plant and animal life.

[Pharmacon]

Thank for your answer,

 

I have an nvidia GTX 765m with 2Go, 8Go of RAM and a Intel Core i7-4700HQ.

I install my skyrim on my SSD as win7.

 

I get CTD when I am too close of lake illinata (from Riverwood). With a new character I went to the est of Whiterun and no CTD but still in Falkreath.

The strange thing is that Skyrim performence monitor said that I did not exceeded the 2Go of VRAM.

[Valkasha]

Do you have hearthfire? Hearthfire sometimes corrupts the cell around the Falkreath player home, have you tried reinstalling Skyrim completely?

[Pharmacon]

Yes, I have the GOTY version.

No I didn't try but I tried to restaure the main files from steam but it didn't work either.

If you don't see another way, could you explain how to do it properly ?

[Valkasha]

For a proper reinstall uninstall all the mods in NMM and then uninstall Skyrim in steam. You can keep your savegames but you might want to try with a fresh save game first. Before doing any of this though I would attempt to go to falkreath with a fresh save without hearthfire installed to see if that's causing the problem.

[Pharmacon]

After having some trouble to desactivate Hearthfire, I decided to reinstall skyrim and my mods.

Since that, I don't expérienced any CTD in falkreath. I have reinstall a small part of my mods (the graphics one and the falkreath relatives one) and surprisingly my GPU is cooler than before and I managed to go to falkreath with the city extender mod and nothing happend...

Except for the Arkey priest who decided that clothing were mainstream.

 

 

PS: My GPU is actually a GTX 860m

[Valkasha]

Well glad it sorta got fixed :)

[Pharmacon]

Yes !! After gettting the same problem again, I act methodically and I found what going on; it was the ScenicCarriage mod ! Now all my mods are activated and I experienced no problem.

Seeing that it was not the most important of my mod, I simply desactivated it.

 

I hope that it will help somebody with the same problem.

[Valkasha]

Thanks for telling us how the problem was solved, a lot of people neglect to do that :)
