CTD - Corrupt Savegames and area transition issues?

[Rockon_rrh]

Hey guys, first post on New Vegas for me.

 

System specs:

Phenom II x4 955 BE @ 3.6 cores and 2600mhz imc

8gb ddr3-1600 cl 7-7-7-24

Gigabyte GTX460 with latest nvidia drivers

 

Love this game, and love the mods out there, but having serious issues as of late. Thanks in advance for any help btw!

 

The problem is that I randomly get corrupted savegames. By corrupted I mean the following: The savegame will load and run fine, but the second I try to quick travel or enter/exit a building the game crashes to desktop. The only way top fix this seems to be deleting the savegame and finding an earlier one that will allow me to transition between areas.

 

The most frustrating part is that sometimes saves will work fine one day and suddenly be corrupted the next. For example: with this issue I will save often, and test my saves by loading them and trying to quick travel...if it doesnt crash, I reload the save and continue forward in the game. But sometimes when I return to these old and tested savegames they suddenly ctd when I quicktravel or enter a building, thus are corrupt.

 

The issue began a while ago, so I did a clean install of the game and reinstalled my mods. Now it seems to be worse than before. The primary mods I use are: Project Nevada, WMX, IWS, Populated Casinos, Electrocity, NV Bounties 1+2, and Nevada skies. Those are the big ones, but just for good measure, here is my load order.... any ideas what is causing this issue?

I was having a similar problem. My game would crash on fast travel randomly (regularly), but didn't seem to be related to a specific save. I turned off the auto-save function that saves when you fast travel and my problem went away entirely. I never crash on fast travel now.

 

Maybe this will help.

That actually makes perfect sense....it is very likely the game saving that is causing the crash.

 

The three times it crashes are: 1) when I save, 2) when I quick travel (autosaves), 3) when I enter/exit a building (autosaves).

 

So with that in mind, anyone have input as to why it crashes when the game saves? I would hate to think I could never save my game again, it would not be worth playing.
