gmg2dave Posted November 16, 2014 Posted November 16, 2014 Just started to level up my conjuration skill for the first time, and have a weird bug. All of the summoning spells in game have a 0 second duration, and magicka cost. I have checked in Tes5Edit, and am seeing no conflicts, and the only mod that I have that does effect durations is the Longer Durations & Annoyance Fixes which should increase the duration of these spells, and does according to Tes5Edit. Just to be sure this was a bug of some sort, I increased my conjuration skill to 75, gave myself the novice through expert perks, and tried to conjure a flame atronoch. Nothing happened, got the sound effect for the spell, but other than that, no summon occurred. I have tried it with every single conjuration spell from novice through expert, and get nothing. Tried doing a google search for this bug, but again came up with nothing, so I am at a bit of a loss here. Anyone have any idea what may be causing this to occur? Would really like to play a conjurer on my latest playthrough, but this bug is pretty much killing that idea.
gmg2dave Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 OK, I've tried to run down this bug by disabling every single plug-in I have installed and seeing if that has any effect, or fixes the problem. But even with 0 active plug-ins, not even the official patches, I STILL have a 0 second duration on all of my summoning spells. So does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? It's obviously not an installed plug-in, and I have no idea what is going on here.
gmg2dave Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Ok, I give up. I completely uninstalled skyrim and all of my mods. Deleted the skyrim folder, and did a fresh reinstall of the game. The only mods I have running are the official DLC's. NOTHING ELSE. No patches, no mods, no nothing. Load a game, do a fresh save. Reload the game, go to cast ANY summoning spell, instant CTD. Go to start a new game, get through the intro, console in the bound sword spell, go to cast it, instant CTD. And the spell is STILL showing a zero second duration and magicka cost. Tried starting the game through SKSE, same result, try starting the game through the launcher, same thing. This makes no sense at all, there is NOTHING that could be modifying or changing any of the spells in game. This is plain vanilla Skyrim with no mods installed at all. I have even tried using the papyrus save game cleaner to remove any left-over scripts that may be interfering with my game in any way, and still same result. At this point, I am at my wits end. I have no idea what the hell is going on, or how to go about fixing it.
