BrokenSwords Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Hello. I know it's not been out very long but I managed to download the Creation Kit last night but it wouldn't start, I thought it was because I was downloading the HD Texture pack, so I let that finish, and the CK finished downloading, I double clicked on The Creation Kit, it came up but at the bottom where it tells you what it's doing, it goes through: "initializing Archive" then "Initializing Facegen"then "initializing Windows..." and when it reaches that point, it crashs. Just shuts itself down. I thought to myself well maybe it downloaded wrong, so I uninstalled it, then reinstalled i, started it up and it reaches the same thing "initializing Windows" and crashs. I've tried verifying the integral files of both the Creation Kit and Skyrim but it's still the same. I don't know why it keeps going wrong, perhaps some of you know or maybe you're getting the same problem.Any idea of how to start it up?. yours sincerely.Darryl.
Yuskeshaman Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I had the same problem. Then later for no reason when I open it it just says "This game is currently unavailable. Please try again another time." I have no idea why because I didn't change anything...
JPArtwork Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I registered just to comment here. I have the exact same problem. This has been the ONLY PLACE I have found anyone mentioning it. It crashes right on launch with "Creation Kit has stopped working" right when it is Initializing Windows. Glad to see it's not my computer specifically and potentially a bug. I have yet to find ANY INFORMATION on this and it's highly frustrating as everyone else seems to have no issues. Windows 7 64-bit64 Bit i7-2600K proc16 GB RAM2 GB nVidia card
CLOAKnSTAGGER Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Same problem here. This thread is the first place I've been able to find note of this bug. Hopefully a cause is unearthed soon. Windows 7, 64-bit2.2GHz quad-core1GB Radeon 6600 HD4GB RAM Edited February 8, 2012 by CLOAKnSTAGGER
gengrimm Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Are you clicking on the CK when it goes into "loading so much crud that it looks like it froze mode"? That can cause windows to think to broke when it really didn't. If your crashing while its loading and not touching anything, not sure what the problem would be there. I've had crashes AFTER loading but not during....so far. If windows is saying "I think this program stopped working, should I shut it down?" tell it no and give it an extra 2-3min. Specs for me are: Windows 7 64-bit8gigs of ram2.6 Quad Core AMD2x 2g Raedon HD 6950 (Dual Screening in crossfire mode) Edited February 8, 2012 by gengrimm

It all occurs on launching CK. There is absolutely nothing we are doing besides booting it up. I have tried through Steam, I have tried using the Shortcut on my desktop. There are no options to continue. It gives the classic Windows 7 "Creation Kit has stopped working." and your only option is the Close button. It crashes PRECISELY when it is launching during the "Initializing Windows." The actual program window appears along with the CK splash logo. But it does not load fully. There are several now with this same problem, so it is becoming more of an issue than I had thought. I really wish there was an Official Forums for Skyrim that we could address the devs and not Nexusmods.

Another individual gave me the same advice. I clear the initial errors (Which seems to be common, just "yes to all" them) and don't touch the program any further, letting it "initialize windows". Giving it about 10 minutes...nothing has changed . It still goes non-responsive whenever I click on the CK window. On the bright side I've read of a similar bug that also makes the CK crash AND Skyrim unplayable, so it could be worse.
