EDIT- Warnings and errors are in the (large) Papyrus log, but I'm not quite sure how to make sense of them.

 

I recently got into Skyrim again, and after getting quite a bit of issues all sorted out and making sure my mods are compatible, I started playing.

 

I have a decently large list of mods, but to my knowledge, there are no compatibility issues, and everything has been sorted, checked, and cleaned with the latest versions of TES5Edit and LOOT.

 

I run Skyrim on:

Windows 7 Ultimate

i7 3770K Quad Core

GTX 660 Ti 2GB

8GB DDR3 RAM

250GB SSD w/54GB free space

 

My settings are on Ultra except for Shadows (turned to low; read on a much older post that this fixed CTDs for many people, thought I would try). I have the latest version of Skyrim, Dawnguard, and the Official High-Res Textures, as well as the unofficial patches for all of these. My game runs quite smoothly and my fps is quite good, apart from occasional stuttering and random CTDs.

 

I've installed ENBSeries/Boost as well, but it didn't do much, so I overwrote it with Stakado's ENB, with seemed to give me less CTDs, and make my game look nicer.

I've also optimized Skyrim, my computer, my computer's memory, and my CPU according to Skyrim Project Stability.

 

I've also installed the latest versions of Skyrim Startup Memory Editor, Fores New Idles for Skyrim, Skyrim Script Extender, Rogue Script Remover, and Safety Load.

 

Seeing as I just started my game this morning, I haven't had much exposure to mods except for those that alter the game from the beginning (textures, animations, races, gameplay changes, etc.). Although, this probably doesn't mean much, since those mods I haven't been exposed to yet are installed anyways. I've only made it so far as Bleak Falls Barrow, and my game has crashed within 2-6 minutes of entering it several times. Before this, I've had occasional CTDs, but they haven't been as frequent or persistent.

 

I use Nexus Mod Manager to download, install, and manage my mods.

 

Due to everything running smoothly apart from my CTDs, I find it difficult to believe that I am unable to run the mods I currently am (especially since not too many of them are huge mods that change a ton of stuff). However, being the mostly-novice modder that I am, I could be incorrect about any number of things.

 

 

Other than that, here are two copies of my SkyrimPrefs.ini (one from games folder and one from steam folder, not sure which one matters, so I'll put both here), as well as my load order from LOOT:

 

SkyrimPrefs from /my games/skyrim/:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

SkyrimPrefs from /common/skyrim/skyrim/:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

Load Order from LOOT:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

EDIT- Important part here:

After enabling my Papyrus log and crashing once more, a giant log was created. I honestly don't know how to make sense of it, but I see some warnings relating to Serana, Wearable Lanterns, Hunting in Skyrim (although I uninstalled it previously), something that starts with SF, and something relating to Spell Crafting. I'm going to post the entire log (all from one play and crash) here. Help is extremely welcomed, as I'm not sure what to do about these (don't even know what SF is, for that matter):

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

 

 

Due to the massive Papyrus log, I'm wondering whether or not it would simply be faster to reinstall everything from scratch. If so, is there anything I should avoid installing?

I'm also guessing that some of these errors may have come from me installing some mods in the process and then uninstalling them later.

 

 

If you think any additional information would be useful for solving this, please tell me and I'll try to post it here.

 

As I've tried a number of things, am quite a novice modder (I apologize, I'm still learning and new to all of this), and would like to play my game without constant annoyance, any help would be greatly appreciated, whether it be something I have to install once or do manually before each start-up.

 

Thank You,

Lukas ~Smexy

You might want to try the save game script cleaner if you've uninstalled mods and continued playing without restarting a new game.

 

You're biggest CTD potential culprits in that list are:

 

Immersive creatures

OBIS

 

both of which put quite a strain on Skyrim's spawn engine. I'd recommend uninstalling them and starting a new game for the purposes of testing. If it takes care of your CTD problem at least you'll have isolated it. If you're really attached to the mods, try turning the spawn rates down in the MCM. That can sometimes help. Or, pick just one of them to use at a time.

 

Don't uninstall a mod mid-playthrough unless it's a simple texture replacer.

 

There have been some reported problems with scripts in the "recorder" mod. Check the comments section to see if they've been sorted although I doubt they would be causing CTDs.

 

Hope that helps.

I see, I'll probably delete OBIS, and I'll check out the Recorder scripts.

Thank you for the suggestions, I appreciate it :)
