When bInvalidateOlderFiles=1 my game crashes

[YTAtlasGaming]

So before this started happening I had just signed up for bethesda.net and downloaded vault 1080. After that I couldn't load into my game or start a new one without crashing. With much troubleshooting I've found that it only happens when bInvalidateOlderFiles=1. If I set it =0 I don't crash. If I disable all mods, I don't crash. If I reinstall and don't use any mods, but I invalidateolderfiles I crash. I unlinked my steam account from bethesda.net so far, I've uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times, deleting all my files. Bethesda's support is just giving me copy paste answers and I can't figure out what's wrong.

Bump because I can't play my game with mods and it's making me sad please help

[jsnider193]

can't be 100% on this but I do not have the cmd in my ini at all and have no problem with using mods .. I think i once put it in my custom ini and got the result you are having and removed it, not set = to anything just removed the entire line and then used NMM to reactivate all the mods .. if active used NMM to unistall and then reinstall .. and to my surprise it worked and mods where there. Now I only use mods developed in CK and/or FO4edit. Not sure if will work but hey just a one line edit to try it.

For starters unistall the vault 1080 mod. Since your problems started with that mod. Uninstalling, reinstalling the game almost never fixes this problem, since your INI settings are the problem.

 

I use the binvalidateolderfiles edit, and I do not have mod issues.

 

All the copy/past answers on this is how you set up your INI to get mods to work.

 

What I would do is delete your INI files, and let Steam rebuild them. Then edit them according to the guides.

Trust me man I've done all of that. Deleted .ini files countless times. Last time I had an issue this serious I had to do a clean install of windows to get back on track. And I don't even know what it fixed

no luck sadly :(

 

So apparently my game only works when bInvalidateOlderFiles=0

 

if the line isn't there at all I still crash. Bethesda support has been useless, just blathering about updating graphics drivers

[bill8872]

Have you tried the INI mods?

If you search for them I think you will find at least two

[Moksha8088]

Noticed my own custom .ini file reads:

 

[Archive]
bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=
[Display]
iLocation X=0
iLocation Y=0
bAllowScreenShot=1

I'm having the same problem as original post. Similarly can't figure it out.

the binvalidateolderfiles=1 is causing CTD whenever I start a new game or load a save, but when 0 saves load fine just without any of the texture/mesh replacers working.

At the end of my tether here, not far off giving up entirely.
