Load game, fade to black screen

[meltonis]

Load game, fade to black screen. HUD still there, I can run around and do whatever. ETC. I'll load my game, disable all the mods except for an armor mod and unofficial patches. as soon as im finished loading, the screen brightens up and makes the sound when you transform into the Werewolf, the surrounding screen brightens up, but then gradually fades to black within a 2 second period.

I also have been suffering from random blackouts lately (post 1.8 beta). They happen any time or venue - day/night, inside/outside - the screen just gradually fades to BLACK, leaving HUD and sounds. Movement is apparent by noting "Talk to XXX" or by watching the compass and sounds/speech.

 

If the game is saved here and exited, then reloaded, it's an immediate black screen - just like saved. If the most previous save is reloaded it may or may not be black - when scrolling through the saves, I may see an image on this save and when opened it "gradually fades to black" again. If I go back 3 - 5 saves and reload, the game picks up again at that point and I can replay through the "fading area" with no problem (for hours even) - BUT then it happens again. So, it's back a few saves to rehash all progress through the fading point.

 

I've disabled and even completely removed all mods since the 1.8 upgrade with NO cure. I've played Skyrim on this exact machine since 111111 and kept up with DLCs - yes I have a few mods running. I recently had to do a clean reinstall due to an HD failure, but all has been (mostly) running fine since then - when I can see it! This is quite annoying, especially when I've not saved something important - turned my autosaves down to 5 minutes.

Sounds like a stray script effect, but I have never experienced this. Try enabling trace mode in papyrus in skyrim.ini, when you fade to black exit and check the log...maybe this can give clues to what script might be getting called. Post log in a spoiler here.

 

EDIT: You could also find this useful Conskrybe.

I realize this has probably already been addressed in another thread since the last post, but since this one has no resolution I thought I'd share my solution here, in case anyone else is having this issue and can't find how to fix it without turning off all your lighting effects with the "teofis" console command (which, imo, makes your game look horrible).

After examining my active effects, I realized what was causing my screen to fade to black/white. I had saved my game with vampire sight turned on, and so when the sun rose, it screwed up the lighting and made me go blind.

I turned off all of my active effects that I was able to, and then the moment I disabled "improved vampire sight" (from the Belua Sanguinare mod) my lighting corrected itself.

Hope this works for you guys! tbh I was pretty panicked when my game started doing this. I was afraid I'd have to play the rest of my game in that ugly "teofis" state.
