New installation, new playthrough, ctd during intro....

[DeltaAgent26]

1.) I am using Mod Organizer, skse, skyUI, shesons' memory patch, and ENB CTD patch.

2.) I have tes5Edited all of the dirty mods referrenced by LOOT.

3.) My system specs are in my signature.

 

 

I have just reinstalled the game, and about 70 or so mods.

I have the mods *prioritized* for best (a.f.a.i.k.) stability and

I have the mods sorted by LOOT with no warnings, errors or messages.

 

Here are my issues:

A.) When the game first loads, the horses and carriages start flopping and spinning all over the place.

IF I am not totally nauseated by the time the intro finishes, and the carts actually make it into helgen,

they are usually situated in such a fashion that the game will not continue, because the npcs get stuck

and do not move into position for the game to progress.

 

B.) If I am able to get past this point, however, my next issue is when after jumping to the inn from the tower,

and avoiding Alduin's fire breath, the moment I try to run towards where you have to run between the wall,

where Alduin lands again, and the builing next to it. The game CTDs EVERY SINGLE TIME at the exact same spot.

 

I have been trying for several days to get past this point. with no luck.

I have re-arranged the priority of my mods, and the load order to try and fix this, but no matter what, it still

CTDs at the exact same point.

Wait till the Start of the actual game to install your mods. ( AFTER the tutorial).

 

The tutorial is a heavily Scripted scene you are part of, all mods can do is interfere. Only mods you should have active would be , Race menu , hair mods and the like, and any character mods you need to Create your character.

 

Once the Tutorial is complete, you exit into the game world and are released from the tutorial. Save. NOW you can add one mod at a time , Start the game let any scripts for that mod initialize, save exit and Rinse and repeat.

 

YES i did this for 250+ mods, game is stable, 119 hours level 38.

Ok, so, wait until my character exits from the cave, under Helgen, before installing mods, aside from those, that are character creation related. will give that a try... thank you.

 

- EDIT -

Thank you very much! I just made it through without ANY CTDs. Now I am re-activating my mods.

You are welcome...remember ..ONE at a time while whats his name standing right there waiting for you....yes he (whom ever you went with) will wait for you...

 

EDIT to add......every once in a while I would Load in to save (new mod added) then take off and do the RUN to Riverwood , to be sure the game was stable and could make it there, on these occasions i would not save so i was still at the exit to Helgen. I have destroyed Riverwood a few times...Testing, get the whole town chasing you......lol Just dont save.

 

About 3/4 of the way thru adding in mods i even went as far as...go to Riverwood do stuff, Go to Whiterun get quest, go finish Bleakfalls. One run no save.

 

Now at 123 Hours

 

| Caution: as you have only 2 GB video cards it is going to be REALLY easy to over mod it. I normally load in at 2.8 GB VRAM in use. I used SPM to monitor my game as i added mods.
