Artifacting in Riften - Goldenglow Estate help!


Blazekillerace

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, wondering if you guys could help me find out what could be causing the artifacting at Goldenglow Estate. Long story short when I am outside of Riften and look towards Goldenglow Estate I get Major artifacts on my screen. I haven't played skyrim in a very long time, so I couldn't tell you what mods I added that caused this. All I remember is randomly one day when I fast traveled to Riften and looked towards Goldenglow Estate I got crazy artifacts. I started to try to find out what was causing it by uninstalling mods one by one. Turns out once I uninstalled SMIM mod, the artifacting stopped. Problem is, I have no idea what could be conflicting with this mod all the sudden..

Hi,

 

Do you have a picture of your artifacts ? I don't think anyone can know if it is mod related or not if you don't provide at least a picture of the bug.

 

Sorry for the late reply, but yeah sure. Sorry I couldn't put up the image in here, wouldn't allow me for some reason.

i am not noticing any ovbious mod that would conflict with Smim

 

what you could do, is Re-Install SMIM and allow it to overwrite everything when asked (by clicking on Yes to All when the dialogue box popsup), since you say that you have not played skyrim in a while, i am guessing this is the mod setup you had for a while, so something could of gone wrong, Re-Installing Smim and allowing it to overwrite everything will most likely fix the issue on its own.

 

 

should the above not work then we will go into problem solving by following this bit below:

 

download xEdit: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/164

 

Download 4.0.1 or lower, not the latest version

 

open all mods in xEdit, by clicking on ok on the primary window that popups up

 

right click on any mod, and click on Apply Filter for Cleaning.

 

then take note of any mod in red, click on the little plus sign next to each mod (the ones that are highlighted in red), until you find what mod is conflicting with Smim-merged-all, the main thing to look for is, if Smim is in red. this would indicate a conflict with it.

 

 

other things to note, Artifacts can also be caused by Hardware Instability + Overheating.

 

so just to make absolutely sure your hardware is not the cause, is your hardware overclocked, and what tempertures are you getting when in game

 

their is a chance that the artifiact you are getting might not even be a mesh issue, could also be a lighting bug, or any type of visual bug. but since you say that disabling smim fixes it, then it would most likely be a mesh bug, but this could also indicate a corrupted nif (mesh).
