notyet20 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Hello! I was hoping for some help. I've been trying to use the Creation Kit, but when I ask it to load the base files, it crashes constantly. Right now, it doesn't even reach 36% before crashing. I'll try to be as helpful as possible so you can help me in turn, but please forgive any weird phrasing or mistakes, my native language is French (same for some translations, I'll be doing them on the go so I might get some technical terms wrong). I have an ASUS ROG laptop. Here's what my system is (I won't try to explain it to you, I have no idea what any of this means) Intel Core i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz 259 GHz8G RAM 64bitsI use Windows 10Intel HD Graphics 530NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M My game is located in SteamApps, common, the usual. I have the Legendary Edition. I use NMM (0.65.2) and the latest version of SKSE. I use LOOT and have used Tes5Edit in the past though it's been at least a year or two. Here's my mod load order: https://ufile.io/uwyo7 Now, onto my problem. I want to use CK to make a custom voiced follower. I'm a sound engineer, so the voicing part is really not what I'm worried about, and I already wrote all of the lines. So I found a nice tutorial and did everything it asked: I downloaded the CK, opened it, cliked Data then ticked the main files. After a terrifying number of errors, it loaded to 99% then suddenly closed. So I searched online for fixes and found advice on how to change the .ini file to make it more stable. Here's what I changed: [Archive]sResourceArchiveList=Skyrim - Textures.bsa, Skyrim - Meshes.bsa, Skyrim - Animations.bsa, Skyrim - Voices.bsa, Skyrim - Interface.bsa, Skyrim - Misc.bsa, Skyrim - Sounds.bsa, Skyrim - VoicesExtra.bsasResourceArchiveList2=Skyrim - Shaders.bsa, Update.bsa, Dawnguard.bsa, HearthFires.bsa, Dragonborn.bsa [Audio]bEnableAudio=0 [General]bAllowMultipleMasterLoads=1 [MESSAGES]bBlockMessageBoxes=1 Not only did it not change my problem, but with the messaged blocked, the loading only goes to 36% before closing. So I tried to reinstall it, checked that it had downloaded onto the right directory, spent a few hours online and only found other desperate people without answers. Do you have any idea what could cause the CK to crash like that? I remember using it in Oblivion and, despite a few crashes here and there and it being very slow, I never had any major issue with it. At this point, I'll take any advice, really. I'm very excited about the follower and I really want to create it. I hope you'll be able to help me! Thank you for your time and have a nice day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xrayy Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) 4GB patch already applied ? if not this could help. creationkit.exe tends to get very big depending on what you load. and close all unnecessary 32 bit tasks before loading it!

notyet20 Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 I don't know what that is, sorry. Where can I find that patch? Thanks for the advice, though. Also, when I use some of my sound engineering softawares I sometimes have to give them more memory than default to make them run smoothly so maybe I need to do that for the CK, though I'm not sure how I'd go about it.

notyet20 Posted January 6, 2019 Author Share Posted January 6, 2019 Sorry, I looked for 4GB patch but it's too generic and my English isn't good enough so I wasn't able to find it. Thank you, though! I downloaded it and tried to run the CK, this time it crashed at 71% so it definitively did something, but the problem isn't fixed. Do you have any more idea of what could be causing the crash?

notyet20 Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notyet20 Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Ok, so some news. Instead of ticking Hearthfire, Dragonborn and Dawnguard like I usually do, I only ticked Skyrim.esp and the Creation Kit loaded!!! So that's great news, but does that mean I won't be able to use any asset from the DLC or even the Update.esm? Any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masternoxx Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) You need to uninstall the creation kit,Then remove any leftover files,then reinstall it i made a screenshot of the folders/ files needed to delete,but this site, I'm not able to post it,maybe I will figure it out...until then try reinstall you need to also load update.esmskyrim.esm and update.esm should have a timestamp of 12/16/2013if the timestamp is changed you will have to reinstall skyrim.
