CJSmith668 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 This just started happening today. Have no idea why it decided to do this. When I enter the pause menu and I hit LT or RT to change catagories, It crashes without warning except for once, every freakin time. I have mods installed, but have hours on them with no problems. yes I'm using the 360 controller. FXAA or not, still does it. Tried compatability mode, disabling other mods, tried offline and online, with and without steam sync, empting temporary files. Still no difference. The first and only warning I have received over the 20 ctds in 15 min refered to a failure for the steam buildbot x64 something... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlCorey Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Do you have all of these?SkyUI Installedthe Unofficial Skyrim Patch installedthe Ancient Knowledge powerIf so, then it appears to be a known issue. It's why I'm waiting for an update to either the USKP or SkyUI that addresses this problem. EDIT: I just saw that USKP Beta 1.02 is available and the first item in the changelog is "Fixed crash to desktop when the magic menu is opened if SkyUI is installed". I've verified that my crashes are resolved. Edited March 16, 2012 by CarlCorey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blove Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Have you removed or updated a mod lately? Did it have a custom spell or shout that had possibly become your Favorite Spell or Favorite Shout in the Magic tab of the General Stats tab? That would cause the same kind of crash you are describing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memlapse Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 When ever I get menu crashes, it's always a corrupted save (autosave). I blast autosaves on a regular basis and it doesn't happen as often. I find that mods with custom menus have a tendency to corrupt saves (skyui, better sorting, imps needs, AKM). I regularly use the console save function: ~ then type save [name of save game] I do this before fast travel and before and after accomplishing quests. This saves me a lot of grief.

blove Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 The easiest way would be to re-install Advanced Destruction so that you can open the Magic tab in General Stats without crashing, turn on god mode in the console, cast a vanilla spell (destruction would be best so as not to raise skills) over and over until your Favorite Spell changes, save and then uninstall the mod.

deabten10 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 I have this exact problem, it happened when I tried to fix random ctds I was getting. Though this ctd happened with was fiddling with my prefs, so its definitely not anything to do with mods installed , it;s something in your skyrim prefs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
