HighMonarch777 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Hi, I searched on the internet for possible solutions to my problem, but I haven't found any that have fixed the issue. I'm creating a somewhat large esp. (It's not the largest I've seen, but it's the largest one I've made) (1,484 KB) While I was creating my mod I noticed that the Creation Kit was taking a progressively longer amount of time to save as time went on. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I just thought I should mention it. Sometimes when the kit loads the esp it crashes during the loading process. I was able to get around this for some reason by making a copy of the esp and slightly renaming it each time it happened. It works totally fine afterwards even though this has happened a few times. (This started a few days ago) The kit was crashing after a few minutes like it usually does until last night when I tried to load the esp. The esp loaded fine until about 10 seconds after it loaded. The kit crashes with the usual "A problem caused the program to not work correctly" message. I persisted on trying to load my mod and edit it after being unable to find other solutions. After it loads I was able to get to the leveled NPC lists and click on one of the lists I was working on. The very strange part is that the kit doesn't crash as long as at least one of these lists is open. I was able to continue work on my mod as long as I kept one of the lists open. When I needed to save I had to close all of the windows and VERY QUICKLY press the save icon AND open another list BEFORE it crashes. This very strangely prevents it from crashing. I had the idea to keep the kit open on my laptop overnight with one of the lists open. This morning I didn't have to wait for it to load and possibly crash, before I was able to open a list after it loads. I noticed after it started doing this saving became instantaneous for some reason. It made me worry whether it was actually saving or not, but the memory amount for the esp kept increasing indicating it was saving. I was continuing work on my mod until I realized I made some mistakes. I thought I would be able to close the kit and be able to work on my mod like I had been doing using the method described above. The esp was able to load whenever I had to reload it after the kit crashes if I wasn't able to open a list quick enough. Unfortunately the kit loads the esp just fine until it starts "Validating Forms" then it crashes. Now I can't even access the esp. I tried making it into an ESM, slightly renaming it, making a copy and renaming it. So far nothing has worked. I tried to load new esps I created and also the Unofficial Patch and other esps and esms as tests for the kit. The kit loads them just fine it just doesn't fully load my esp.

PeterMartyr Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 xEdit look for Errors, If it finds some, type the HEX ID in search, then delete the offending record in the right Panel, If it really bad? delete the whole thing in the left panel. Arh, if you haven't got one? start back up systems. sometimes it quicker to load backup & redo it than trying to fix it. Just sayin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
