the Dark Brotherhood is crashing my game.

[redeyesandlonghair]

So lately, out of the blue, my game started crashing. First it happened on my save that I had been playing for a while; I was crashing whenever I would Wait for a few hours, so I stopped trying to Wait and just went out into the world. Eventually, whatever I was Waiting to must have happened, because I started crashing repeatedly everytime I loaded that save. Reloading an earlier save stopped it temporarily, but eventually it started happening again. So I got fed up, removed a bunch of mods that I had heard vague reports of causing instability, and started a New Game. I got to Bleak Falls Barrow, and it started happening again; I load the save, and about 20 seconds or so later, crash. One thing I noticed is that every single time, the same thing pops up in my Papyrus Log right before every crash, and that is this:

so yeah.. last thing that happens every single time is something related to the dark brotherhood.

Hopefully someone has some idea what's causing this. Since it starts with 00, that doesn't really point me in the direction of any particular mod. The only mods I have added recently were things that change sound.

I have the same problem.

 

Cannot call GetStage() on a None object, aborting function call

That makes three of us then... And I haven't got a clue what it's about.

[AnkhAscendant]

I don't know what's causing it, but since it is "00" have you tried verifying the game files in case something got messed up in the Skyrim files at some point? I know it's probably not it and may not help, but it certainly wouldn't hurt anything.

[sickzpack]

Yep, done that. Had the same problem with my previous install. so I think it's a mod problem of some sort.

 

The only mods we have in common are Amazing follower

Tweaks and apachii hair.

Just a quick note - the last lines in a papyrus log aren't necessarily the thing that caused the CTD. If you see these dark brotherhood messages throughout the log, then it's most likely not the cause, just a repeated message of something not working entirely as intended.

 

I think it's a mod problem of some sort.

 

Very likely ;)

 

ps. the original poster is listed as banned so likely won't be responding.

[Solentis]

I use Apachii hair too, but not Amazing follower. I use UFO.

[sickzpack]

I reinstalled skyrim, still not sure what caused it :(

UFO is apparently incompatible with Hearthfire by the way.

Just found out, that's why I didn't DL it earlier.

[Solentis]

I don't own Heartfire, but the bug still remain. maybe a cell problem?

[Solentis]

Form me the responsible is the mod
