Does anyone have any advice for dealing with the Bethesda Stutter?

[Purr4me]

 

Have you tried all of those combined at the same time? In Boston, I ran at a steady 55. Now that I'm running vanilla, I'm lucky to get 20, so I tend to stay away, unless it's quest related.

I haven't, because I don't really need extra performance. boston doesn't run well, and I've just accepted that at this point. in the rest of the game, I get 60 fps almost constantly - this doesn't have any impact on the stutter. if your point is that increasing overall performance might mitigate the stutter, I promise that's not the case. when I drop the game to its lowest possible graphics settings, I get just as much stutter as ultra with mods.

 

Can you make available a saved game file hard saved in the exact location and a list / load order and extra data loading.

I can attempt to inspect the game.

 

But, I need to know exactly where the game is installed at, windows version (exact version) and 2 screen shots of dxdiag pages 1 and two so I know what it's doing.

Just an offer, it seems as though there might be a conflict some place.

 

I say conflict due to experiencing one similar to this. I don't have the game set up here but I can set it up.

I can - but this stuttering persisted even when I completely deleted the game + config files, reinstalled, set the game to lowest settings and started a brand new, unmodded save. so with that in mind, do you still think your theory could apply to my situation?

dxdiag shots will help me determine that, yeah, Theory is out the window, it is a hardware issue.

Page 1 and two will give me an idea and it will supply the system specs too.

 

But !, if the games software is installed into (x86 Program files and folder) it will be most likely the OS.

Currently we are having a rolling thunderstorm here, it's loud and distracting. 1rst rain for the year.

I am isolating my machines now from static charges.

I can answer through my cell phone.

The game's directory is C:\SteamSSD\steamapps\common\

EDIT: I just noticed the DxDiag is reading 8 cpus, so before anyone suggests hyperthreading is the cause: it must have turned on just yesterday because I flashed my BIOS. the problem is present regardless of hyperthreading.

turn on scaling for desktop Environment too. Log states DWM.exe is turned off, and the games overlay uses DWM

install dx 9c due to some data needs it if you haven't already done so. 32bit not 64bit.

DWM.exe appears to be missing from my computer. I can't find any resources explaining how to replace the file. sfc /scannow didn't work.

 

edit: the exe itself isn't missing, actually. the dwm service in Services.msc isn't there at all - and beyond that I don't know how to "enable" it.

do you own New Vegas game? steam...in it's main folder, there is a installer for that games software and it will install, fallout 3 may not as we know there are issues with fo3's programing in windows 10. If your missing data the game rely upon, you will encounter issues.

 

If what you have will not install, you need to obtain 9c from Microsoft games for xbox live, that will install the missing data.

Your smart, and you know a lot of these games were designed on 32bit systems prior to distribution.

 

Have you installed the xbox live networking software for the games? Current software for any of these games 32bit requirements are available.

If the OS refuses to install what you have, it's the wrong version.

 

Google xboxlive for windows 10..download and install just that alone, do not try to log on to the serer just quit the program and test the game.

The process will install any missing 32bit software for game *.dll's automated.

 

It's harmless but necessary to test this.

This is not theory, it's fact.

 

Some hardware will refuse some software, especially an intel system. But, DWM.exe...right click the taskbar and select task manager.

Click the processes tab, there you will see your missing program, it loads when windows loads so it's not missing, it's a device driver for the OS desktop..other wise you would talking to me on a phone and not a PC.

[Purr4me]

If you Flashed the Bios ? then the graphics drivers right now need to be backed up and then removed, windows needs to update the hardware drivers after that, then you can reinstall the graphics driver for the Nvidia stuff afterwards.

 

Be careful what you mess with.

 

This is a lot of things we are discussing, you can leave it as a discussion or plan it out...but be prepared, you can really hose up that PC good.
