Rethrain Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Alright, I'm here cause I'm pretty much at my wits end, sadly. I've searched (These boards), cursed, and put a hex on my WIn 8. Nothing worked. I got two types of ctd's, all in helgen's tutorial part: One is where and when I meet Haldvar(sp?) after escaping with Ralod to the tower and the other is when I try to enter the barracks with Haldvar -- I assume the same thing will happen if I enter with Ralof, but I never tried. This is my papy log, I've no idea how to make the attachments prettier...other than this: And sadly I didn't understand the jargon....Something about vampires? The Dragon Alduin?...If the error or problem is not there I'm not sure what to think, most of the mods I have are texture replacements, UNPB, eyes, hairs and the like...I went from installing 64 mods to only having 4 mods or so, and 2 clean reinstalls...><; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidzebra Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 It's generally recommended to only load your mods AFTER the whole tutorial quest (so after you exit the cave at the end and prepare to head to Riverwood or elsewhere). Play through the Helgen sequence in vanilla mode, then activate your mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rethrain Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 I see, well, I will do that, also, do I have to do that every time I start a new game (New Character) or..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidzebra Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 (edited) How often do you do that? Sorry, bad form answering a question with a question, just wondering. As far as I know the whole Helgen/intro/tutorial cave thing has a lot of potential for bad interaction with mods. Probably because most of it is "on rails". So yeah, I would avoid having mod active during that time with any fresh character. You could try an alternate start mod, because personally if I see that tutorial cave one more time I'm going to scream. "look out, there's a bear!" YES THANK YOU I KNOW (then again, alternate start mods have the potential to break all sorts of other things...)

Rethrain Posted December 2, 2012 Author Share Posted December 2, 2012 How often do you do that? Sorry, bad form answering a question with a question, just wondering. No problem, I just changed computers and the other one didn't have this sort of problem. I've no idea why though. I don't really do it often, I just wanted to make sure if I needed to be on guard if I wanted to make another character or not. I may start another one if I get bored and then go back to the original, however, not that often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you could try Alternate Start Live another Life and skip helgen all together http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/9557 I use windows 7 personally, but from what I have heard there Windows 8 is a nightmare for gaming. Don't know the specifics but thats the rumor at least lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
