Crixas Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) I've discovered something rather grim... As many (vanilla players and modding players) have noticed (if google is reliable today), there seems to be a crash bug at the end of the Automatron quests whereupon trying to leave the final location results in a very swift and sudden... well, crash. What else?I, like many others who found themselves in that predicament, used COC redrocketext to leave the zone, since the crash on exit was VERY consistent.I have since attempted to return to the cell that includes that place (Yes, "place." It's been out for what, two days?) after quick-warping to a minuteman alert at Nordhagen Beach and, guess what? The game crashes... consistently, when I try to enter the area right across the bridge! The entire Cell seems to be a no-go-zone after playing through this mod. And yes, for you sticklers out there, I tried this with all of my mods unchecked (and even verified my files - just for good measure).So I regret to confirm that yes, at least for my game, this DLC does have a crash bug. On the bright side, I DID get into the "place" BEFORE finishing the quest, so, the cell seems to lock-up only after its completion? That should mean, if you want automatron and feel like not finishing the quest, you won't see this bug for a while."Were you modding?"This is more than a conflict. It's persisting even after unchecking every mod I've got, other than the DLC itself and the vanilla game. Then again, maybe you know something I don't! If so, leave it in the comments.To those of you who might be worrying about this DLC... worry, a little. Still, even if you happen to have the same issue that I did, you might be able to accept the Quest, and "just be" until Bethesda (or a nexus-goer) fixes the matter, since the problems (at least the ones I'm noticing) only started upon its completion. I leave this here for other players who might be experiencing the same... which, after googling the matter, appears to be a fair amount of others... and to make sure that this isn't an isolated problem shared by only myself and a small collectorate of others, of course. "You're spoilery!"I did the best I could! D': (Plus if we can find consistency with this issue, the next step might be pinning down the why of it and could lead to a fix?)

Puddycat Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Is that not the same thing this fixeshttp://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11218/?

Puddycat Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Q: The game crashes near the Mechanist's Lair if I have Automotron DLC and DEF_UI.This is caused by the icon for the Mechanist's Lair on the compass. When the game tries to add the icon, if it cannot find the icon in the icon library, it can cause a crash. This mod by th1nk may be a valid workaround. Taken from DEF_UI page, thank them heheGlad you're sorted :) Edited March 24, 2016 by Puddycat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandofBobb Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I was also crashing when I tried to leave the lair, don't have any HUD mods that I'm aware of, but that mod still fixed the issue for me as well, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomomi1922 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I fast traveled out so I don't remember. But whenever walked near the lair again I CTD. That means doing some of the BOS quest by the airport too. So now I am afraid of finishing the quest. About UI .... I don't remember having special UI at all.

Puddycat Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Well maybe it's not just happening to people that have a UI mod, couldn't tell you.The only reason i mentioned that is cause that's where i saw the reason it was happening, and the fix.

44Magfreak Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Thanx!!! Fixed the problem of being stuck inside the robot building after finishing the main robot quest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHAitken Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Not only at the end of the DLC. That area has been locked of to me and all I've done is bring Ada back to Greygarden. That being said I am getting the requite ambushes, do I definitely know the dlc is in effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
