Dragonflarcos Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Hi guys i've got a ton of mods but they always worked now i added a ton of textures, my skyrim doesnt lag but it ctd'ed and my textures in solitude for example are very ugly (totally bugged) even of they should be 2k-4kVRAM issue maybe? How can i look if my vram is totally used or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualBlack Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I don't know about the textures looking buggy but the recent update has been causing more CTD than ever before. I had only had 1 or 2 CTD's before the last update ever and with the most recent update I have been getting more than triple what I was before in the period of about a week. I don't think the crashing is Vram related because by laptop has 4GB of vram and I highly doubt I am using it all. I think it is Bethesda related :laugh:.

Bannor9 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) All, as in ALL overides and Mods, increase the chance of CTD. You are forcing the system to first load the skyrim default, low res stuff, then override that with their updated highres patch, THEN forcing the system to scan through all the sub-folders of your data folder and overwrite a 3rd, 4th, or 5th time with whatever mods you have installed, AND whatever loose files you have dropped into the data folder system. The game does not load INSTEAD of, but ON-TOP of the default data. No hardware is really good enough for that. Having a very fast RAID array MIGHT help, but you are still running a single app that is attempting to find multiple overwrites. CTD is a given in that situation.

gasti89 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 If CTDs happen after installing lots of texture, maybe it's a vram - ram issue. Download GPU-Z and watch your vram usage. Also wich vcard you use? I remember ATI ones have problems with ENB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasti89 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 I have a 6850 and 4gb ram DDR2. I stopped using mods, but i had around 100 texture mods without problems (just some lags in heavy modded cities). But every ENB just killed my rig. Have you seen any purple texture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS: Your mod is awesome So it most likely would be mods that are causing it. First I would try using the utility called BOSS (link). This will sort your load order for you which may or may not fix the crashing. If it doesn't work than I would try disabling the enb to see if your texture mods are working correctly. If it is still crashing than you know that you have some texture mods that for some reason don't work well together. Worst case scenario would be that you need to do a clean install of Skyrim and re-install the mods slowly but hopefully you are just having a load order problem.
