frapfap Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 when skyrim came out id crash to desktop every hour or so, whatever the last week its been every 30-45minutes. and today, ive crashed about every 3-4 minutes i started the liberation of skyrim for stormcloaks today, and im almost done, but ive had to redo each one of the bastards like 5-6 times cuz in the middle of killing iomperials at the forts id crash, and id have to start over.. its god damn irritating. ive wasted about 2 hours in the last 3 hours of playing, restarting missions cuz of crashes... f***in bulls*** b4 1.2 id crash at most every hour or 2..sometimes not at all over 7 hours of playing...they need to fix the REAL ISSUES, not RARE issues that really arnt so god damn rare.

I had the crash problem with fxaa + enb + retexts until I changed it manually to use 4gb since I couldnt get the skyrim4gb.exe to work. This is the manual way of doing the 4gb fix. And it is guaranteed to smooth out gameplay but most importantly stop the crash to desktop. Here is HOW to stop crashes: 1. Download Explorer suite also known as CFF explorer @ http://www.ntcore.com/exsuite.php 2. Once you install it, run it, and follow the instrucitons below: Click the folder icon or go to File -> Open and browse your PC for TESV.exe. Click on File Header at the left, find Characteristics at the right, and click the Click here blue button. Check the "App can handle >2GB address space" box Click OK.Save by clicking the disk icon or going to 'File -> Save. Overwrite the file when it asks you to. If it doesn't let you overwrite just rightclick TESV.exe and uncheck the "read-only" box. THEN OVERWRITE. GOOD LUCK Edited December 1, 2011 by scatlm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korodic Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 happening to me a lot as well. I HAD a 4gb enabler done to it but i guess that was gone w/ patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatlm Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Yup. After the first patch it diasbled 4gb, so do it manually. It solved the ctd and it gave me better performance. I'm getting about 10-15 more fps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scatlm Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 For now solve the crashing issue by enabling the 4gbfix . Graphic improvements are highly subjective. Some people can't tell the difference. Other like the way vanilla looks. But if you know how to mess with it you can alway make the same "Vanilla" palette looks sharper and better. The presets that the fxaa comes with might not be suitable for your tastes or for to your own individual monitor and graphics settings.I found the presets to bee on the "extreme" side of palette and sharpening effetcs/ I had to mess with the settings to get it to look good, but it looks 100x better than stock vanilla.

Kraheera Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I haven't been able to get CFF to work... when I enable more than 2gb, Steam says "error 51" when I launch skyrim. Very annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
