CTD on entering one room

[Gadge]

This is pretty much what the topic is; I've had a problem with only one particular location so far, and that's on Alval Uvani's house. I'm not on the Dark Brotherhood quest, but I broke in and gone through it, and can get in the basement fine, but when I manage to pick the lock on his second floor bedroom, the game shows the loading screen for about half a second then crashes straight to desktop.

 

I've tried an earlier save, running anti-virus software, updating my graphics drivers and defragmenting my hard drive. The wiki shows no indication of this particular bug. I have some mods installed, but after some initial difficulty they seem to be working well together, and I don't know that I have any that would affect rooms anyway. I've not edited oblivion.ini.

 

Are there any steps I should be taking that I've not yet done, or any solutions? It seems odd that it would be just this room, though I don't know if he would be inside it or not, so if it's just him I could wait another day in-game and try again.

 

Thanking you in advance for any help.

I'm encountering the same problem. No problems breaking into other buildings/rooms, but no matter how I try to get into Alval Ulvani's second story room -> CTD. I even used the console command to unlock it.. *shrug* I said screw it, I'll go steal from somewhere else =/

You might look at load-ordering your mods with FCOM Helper, then OBMM to update the hidden Oblivion file Plugins.txt. Also, if you have any mods that change anything within that room (even just furniture) that could be your culprit.

I know this is a couple years later, however, as I got here from a search I figure I'll post an update in case anyone else gets here searching this issue;

 

"The mod that causes this is Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul, it crashes when inside that room on the 2nd floor of Alval Ulvani's house no matter what. The door is not causing the crash it's something that the mod creator done there, it even crashes when trying to edit that room with OOO enabled in the construction set." - http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion_talk:Alval_Uvani

 

So it is a OOO bug, it is in theory fixed in the OOO 1.34 beta build, but the room is completely bugged in 1.33.
