kinglouie Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I posted this in technical help too, but I'm posting here in hopes that more people will see it and I can get a fix. I have Skyrim on Steam. The game crashes when I select an enchantment for an item that I want to enchant, and only when I do that. I can select an item and a soul gem, but when I select the enchantment the game crashes without any error messages. I played the game for a while without enchanting so I know it only crashes when I try to enchant items. This happens at any altar, with any item, and with any enchantment. I'm using SKSE and have a few mods, but I havnt added a mod in about a week or a week and a half, and this just started happening yesterday. I'm fairly certain that the mods are not causing the trouble because another fellow Skyrimer has this same problem and he has no mods at all. Here is a link to his question on yahoo.answers: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120302230544AAoPfBI Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard2Beat Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 The game has been updated in the mean time? Do you have any outdated mod which changes the game in respect of the "crafting"? Furthermore, are you using NMM and if yes, which version? Does Skyrim also crash when all mods are turned off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinglouie Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 Ok I found something else out. A while back I used the fortify restoration loop to make uber potions of enchanting. I then used one of those to make a ring that fortified alchemy by about 200,000 %. I used that ring to make more uber potions of enchanting (so I wouldnt have to go through the potions of restoration loop again). I can enchant when I haven't consumed my uber fortify enchanting potion, but after I consume it and my enchanting level is super high, the game crashes when I try to select an enchantment.

kinglouie Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) The game has been updated in the mean time? Do you have any outdated mod which changes the game in respect of the "crafting"? Furthermore, are you using NMM and if yes, which version? Does Skyrim also crash when all mods are turned off?I disabled all mods and this still happens. I am not using NMM at all. I don't have any mods that effect enchanting or the crafting system. The ones I do have installed are weapon mods that add craftable weapons at the forge, an enhance fire mod, enhanced night sky, and one that changes the look of the currency. But as I said I disabled all of them. I also verified the game cache. The game only crashes after I have consumed one of my uber fortify enchanting potions that I made with my uber fortify alchemy ring. I did all that using the fortify restoration loop. I can enchant fine if I have not consumed one of those potions. Edited March 4, 2012 by kinglouie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinglouie Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 I tried using the fortify restoration potion loop instead of using the ring, and the game still crashed when I used my uber fortify enchanting potion. Clearly the game now has a problem that it did not before. Did Bethesda release an update that prevents you from exploiting this loop and enchanting super powered items? I used that exact loop about a week ago and there was no problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xlcr Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 kinglouie, if i understand correctly, enchanting works when you do NOT use that ring or potions right?.my guess is the game enchanting system malfunctions/crashes due to being unable to perform valid calculations because those overpowered items you made break the game's math engine scripted mechanics.have you tried creating more balanced versions of those fortify items and using them? i was also wondering why you would even want to create such overpowered gear/weaponry, to me, doing this just makes playing the game kinda pointless and unchallenging lol.

BlueTek Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Same problem here, i don't use restoration loop. This is a vanilla game bug, probably came with the 1.9 patch. EDit: Fixed it. Ely's uncapper was the problem. I have put all the values regarding enchanting back to 100 and disabled the enchanting stuff in the plug-in.
