I am starting to think that this could be some ini problem or the fact that my mods need adequate cleaning with xedit. I also did clean all the DLC's with xEdit QuickAutoClean, before installing any mods, but I am not sure how that could be the problem. I guess I'll have to look into the log file more carefully

Cleaning of the original and DLC game files are not recommended. The "xEdit QuickAutoClean" process is most likely to avoid the pitfalls, but I never attempted to clean them and that is another difference between our setups.

 

I've isolated the following to be unique entries that repeat in all three NVAC logs. (The log entry lines are truncated down to just the exception address and the exception code within the game's code for isolation/comparison purposes.) They indicate a problem unrelated to those mods at least.

DEFAULT: Unknown file type on file 0
00C5C9F4 8B423083 FalloutNV.exe
00C5CA1E D94164D9 FalloutNV.exe
00C31D0E F3A58B73 FalloutNV.exe
TRUNCATE _
00C5CE67 8B018902 FalloutNV.exe
00C5CE6E 8B118955 FalloutNV.exe

The exceptions are occuring primarily within the "00C5" and the one instance in the "00C3" block. Those blocks are starting at the 12MB decimal addresses:
00c50000[12910592]
00c30000[12779520]

The "exception codes" are:
8B423083
D94164D9
F3A58B73
8B018902
8B118955

They are not standard "Windows" exception codes. Queued (the author of NVAC) is the most likely person to be able to interpret the exception codes, but all their mod is really doing is intercepting and logging errors and not interpreting them. With 6,700+ comments mostly reporting similar errors, that's too much to expect of any mod author.

Just on the off-chance I searched the forum thread for each of the "exception codes" but only found one instance reporting "8B118955" but in the "0044" memory block. Unfortunately it never received a response that I could see. Consequently it seems you will have to perform "conflict isolation" to determine the cause. You would most likely have to remove all mods, then re-install them one at a time to your "load order" and check the NVAC log after launching with each addition to isolate what is causing them (assuming it is not a part of the base game code).

Thanks for your research and help with trying to fix this problem. I'll try figuring something out, before going to the extreme of removing all my mods, and adding them one by one. Its just a tedious process that just makes me think Why am I even breaking my neck trying to fix a problem I am not capable of resolving. Maybe I'll just try skipping that area, and pray that that's not a permanent problem, if so, then going back to the mojave and forgetting about Lonesome Road seems like the best idea. Thanks again.

My advice would be to check the mods most recently updated before you used them for your setup. It looks to be a pretty rare issue that I cannot find anything older on than this thread. My money is on some recent mod patch causing the issue. It's a bit suspicious that you'd find nothing at all about a bug as big as this but since March 2019 there's enough incidents to fill a thread. New issue.

I've been putting my playthrough off for now because Lonesome Road is quite frankly unplayable.

Hello,

I have the same problem. I solved it by modding the script NVDLC04TunnelCodeHolderSCRIPT so the tunnelers don't appear (complete script in the spoiler)

You still hear them, ED-E beeps when near their spots, but no freezes, no encounter...

 

I'm quite sure there is a better solution, I suspect that either the PlayIdle or the Ghost parts are responsible for the freeze, so it might be possible to have the Tunnelers appear and don't freeze the game, but at least it works (for me...)

 

When I say it works : i get through the whole collapsed tunnel without problem with this modded script and get out of it and the next Ulysses conversation played OK. (I never played Lonesome road before, I don't know if not killing the Tunnelers will have any consequences)

 

Just published the "mod" if it can help someone : https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/67359/

 

 

 

Scn    NVDLC04TunnelCodeHolderSCRIPT

; This script controls the scripted scenes in Collapsed Overpass Tunnel. It will handle several scenes, and creature spawning, accounted by the var nScene.

; J.S. 3/11/11
; TLS 04/06/2011 - Adding quest incrementing here rather than on the door.

Short    bInit                        ; 1 = Initial operations that run once.
Short    bRunPackage            ; 1 = Deathclaw at scene 0 (first scene) has received its patrol AI that leads it to its death.
Short    bSubmergeScare        ; 1 = Triggered var to kickstart scene 1 has been crossed (scene 1 = tunneler runs to a hole, and burrows).
Short    bPopScare                ; 1 = Triggered var to make the previous tunneler pop out of the hole where it just burrowed (scene 2).
Short    bEmergeScare            ; 1 = Triggered var to kickstart scene 3, (Scene 3 has a wave of tunnelers appear shortly after scene's 2 tunneler).
Short    bFinale                    ; 1 = Triggered var to kickstart the finale's tunneler attack, which encompasses scene 4, and scene 5.

Short    bPlayerInterference    ; 1 = Player has carried out some action that would normally disrupt the flow of the scene in question.

                                    ; These vars are still not used - they are here for support purpose, in case they become necessary during Alpha polishing.

Short    bThirdWave                ; 1 = Third wave of tunnelers has spawned.

Short    bRespawn                ; 1 = Tunnelers are ready to be respawned, according to GameDaysPassed value when compared with fRespawnTime.

@francksteel: That is very helpful. As you are the only one who can edit your post, suggest you place the script within your "spoiler" tags within "code" tags as well to preserve the indentations and prevent it getting interpreted as "emoticons".

 

I suggest your mod as a possible solution in new "Issue - DLC Lonesome Road - Freeze in Collapsed Overpass Tunnel" entry in the "Misc" section of the wiki "Fallout NV Mod Conflict Troubleshooting" guide.

Thanks for the edit. Much easier to read that script now. Makes it more likely someone will look into it. NOTE to others: he just commented out (prefixed with ";") lines.

 

My initial thought is the "PlayIdle" lines are suspects. But as I didn't encounter the problem, it needs someone who is having the problem to test.

I've made some more tests.

One of the culprit is clearly playIdle Intimidate

When I comment only the two lines which contain .PlayIdle STIntimidate I'm sometimes able to kill most of the tunnelers (they correctly emerge, stop moving instead of I suppose take a intimidating pose, and then attack).

But sometimes the game freezes again, I suspect when the tunneler takes too much damage (more than 50% and less than 100%) and tries to flee or maybe when it tries to explode ?

 

IdleEmerge seems OK. --> Edit : not so sure after more tries. Sometimes it freezes, less often than with Idle STIntimidate, but still happens.

 

I tried to also comment the lines with setGhost 1 (makes the tunnelers invulnerable). Maybe it helps a bit, but not sure too. It could be only lucky runs.

 

For now, the only 100% no freeze I had was with the mod as published (i.e. no tunnelers except the 1st one).

The intermittent nature of the freeze with "IdleEmerge" suggests a possible memory issue (to me at least).

 

* The game has "memory leaks", primarily linked to the audio system due to the version of the Ogg Vorbis Libraries used by Bethesda. Getting 2-3 hours before a CTD is pretty good. The audio problem is fixed by using the updated [http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/61265 Ogg Vorbis Libraries] posted by Kane Wright. You might also want to try using the tool "CleanMem", which periodically (you can set the interval; default is every 15 minutes) tells the OS to perform it's built-in "clean up" of memory. It has a "mini-monitor" that displays memory usage. Doesn't seem to hurt and might help.

You might try to "<Alt+Tab>" out of the game and run "CleanMem" before the point where either Idle would run to see if it makes any difference.
