Game crashes immediately after loading certain savegames

[hal900x]

Hi folks. Not a happy camper today. Suddenly, after many days of gameplay, Morrowind crashes whenever I try to load a save in which I was standing face to face with an NPC. Other saves seem unaffected.

I have mods, mostly MGSO. I cannot think of any mods that were added at the time this issue cropped up. Nolore was the most recent, iirc. Load order follows:

001 Morrowind.esm

Steps I have taken so far:

- Updated masters in applicable savegame file via Wrye Mash

- Recreated merged lists patch and enabled

- Uninstalled any known DVD playback and/or mounting software such as Daemon Tools, etc., as well as anything else that looked like it installed it's own codec, e.g. remote control software

- Disabled any non-Microsoft Codecs via InstalledCodec.exe utility

- Set DisableSound=1 in morrowind.ini

- All volume settings to lowest setting via in-game options

- Set 3D sound to "software" via in-game options

Current enabled codecs:

I note that no matter what I do to the sound options or .ini, I can still hear a snippet of game music before it crashes. As you probably know, when loading a savegame, you will hear Morrowind's sound some time before you see the video.

It is not until the video loads that the crash occurs.

I am at my wits end. It may be that I just need to disable the right (or wrong) Codec, but I don't know them well enough to start disabling MS codecs. Unfortunately there is no tool ike Nightmare 2013's old app for use with Win7. I am

using the onboard Realtek sound that just about every motherboard has, and have disabled all playback devices in windows except speakers and headphone jack.

Your help is greatly appreciated, let me know if there is any other info I can post.

[Dragon32]

Is there anything in your warnings.txt file? After a save which crashes.

 

So, it's just some saves? Those made just in front of an NPC? Starting a new game with the same mod list causes no problems?

 

I seem to remember some similar (ish) problems reported with Adul's "Shut Up!" mod. qqqbbb released an update. Makes me wonder about "New Voices.esp", not a mod I've heard of before.

 

I'd recommend downloading the latest version of mlox and running that. It will optimise your load order. The one included with MGSO is years out of date. I don't know if it will solve your problem as this is new to me.

 

When updating in Wrye Mash the save game's checkbox is now purple? Did you also run a Repair All on that save?

 

And I know equivalent of Nightmare2013's codec reset utility for modern OSs. I doubt it's a hardware thing as I'd expect every save and a new game to crash

Yes, just specific saves, and the common factor seems to be that I am standing directly in front of various NPCs. I cannot locate any warning(s).txt file in the main or data file folder, just two old ones: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Morrowind\Data Files\Sound\Vo\r\m from 2 weeks ago and C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Morrowind\Data Files\Icons\Byb from 2003. It's a steam install so perhaps there is a profile folder somewhere? Contents of the more recent warnings file follows:

 

Sound Error: Can not play file. \\SDF-2\BETHESDA\Projects\MOROWIND\Morrowind\Data Files\Sound\Vo\r\m\\\SDF-2\BETHESDA\Projects\MOROWIND\Morrowind\Data Files\Sound\Vo\r\m\Atk_RM012.mp3

 

I may go ahead and update the various components of MGSO, or start from scratch without using it. MLOX does not change my load order no matter what I do, so I do the best I can manually. I will go ahead and update to the latest version and import a new MLOX database. Someone on another board linked me to the ongoing MGSO update/patch thread. Normally I'm not lazy or dumb enough to use compilations, but I started out quick and dirty and rapidly got deeper into mods.

 

Yes I did update my merged lists patch after every new mod, and I always repair the save as well. Yes the saves in question are purple. As for that codec reset utility, did you mean "know" = "no"? If not, please provide a link to the new utility. As I mentioned, I am manually disabling codecs individually using InstalledCodec.exe

 

FYI, UAC is disabled in case the install location is a concern.

 

Thanks for your help.

You're installed in Program Files and even with UAC off you'll still run into folder virtualisation

 

These:

Sound Error: Can not play file. \\SDF-2\BETHESDA\Projects\MOROWIND\Morrowind\Data Files\Sound\Vo\r\m\\\SDF-2\BETHESDA\Projects\MOROWIND\Morrowind\Data Files\Sound\Vo\r\m\Atk_RM012.mp3

 

That's the naming convention for a file located on a remote machine called "SDF-2", presumably you don't have one of those on your home network

 

Try using a grep tool (I use TextCrawler) to search the *.ES? files in your Data Files folder for the text string "SDF-2"

 

I think that could be the problem, Morrowind's attempting to find an MP3 to play with some bit of Hello dialogue (so when you're near a NPC), can't find it and falls over.

 

[Edit: mlox not sorting your load order will (probably) be due to Program Files install.

 

You can move your Steam games library. Don't have a link but it's a FAQ or something on steampowered.com, IIRC

 

Yeah, I don't know of any equivalent to Nightmare2013's. The internet ate my word's. Honest.]

Thank you Dragon. I am going to go ahead and buy a DRM free version of Morrowind...I used to have one, and iirc the game is portable, and can run as many separate installs as you like. I'm ditching Steam version, hopefully I can find a legit copy of Morrowind somewhere tho...GOG doesn't have it, a crime.

 

I could swear the MLOX that comes with MGSO successfully sorted my load order, but not anymore apparently. I'll look into that sound file, I think you are right.

 

Any good codec tool can allow you to selectively disable and enable, but knowing what actually shipped with Win7 is more research than I care to do.

[Dragon32]

Yeah, I've the game (and expansions) on separate disks. All bought individually soon after they came out. There's still DRM: a disk check on boot, but Bethesda removed the disk check every minute or so whilst playing with the first patch.

 

Get off my lawn.

 

On alternate versions of Morrowind: the Morrowind Code Patch only supports disk versions and the Steam one. I remember someone having problems with a Morrowind copy from Impulse. Whilst the Steam guys would work with Hrnchamd to ensure compatibility the Impulse guys wouldn't

 

I'd really just move your Steam Library to C:\Games. It's other old games and not just Morrowind which'll have problems in Program Files.

 

The version of mlox included in MGSO doesn't automatically download rule-set updates. So the rules people are using are from whenever MGSO 2.0 (?) was released. There's a few "under the hood" enhancements to allow for some more obscurely named plugins to be parsed but that's the main difference. The actual assembling and applying a new load order code hasn't changed. I think. But then I didn't write it.

 

On codec's I found this some months ago: Guide to a clean and powerful Codec System. From 2008, no idea

 

Oh, just found this Microsoft Fix it CODEC Troubleshooter 3.5.0.41 and Codec Tweak Tool 5.9.8. Afraid codecs is one of those things I haven't (yet, thankfully) had to look at for my Win7 install.
