Random Stutter, Tried Most if not all Troubleshooting

[ChewieBacca]

Usually I do not need help finding out if a stray mod, or something is causing my stuttering, I've been stumped by this. My system is strong enough to power skyrim maxed out w/any and all Hi-Res packs (mod and official). Somewhere along the lines, a mod is causing random stuttering into almost near slide show style FPS.

I'll post my boss log just as a reference.

I've tried disabling mods (w/new games, new saves, etc) and to no avail found out the problem.

The problem appears near towns/villages. I haven't been able to locate it, I've disabled claralux and enhanced towns and villages, and nothing. I just can't spot the problem mod, and I remember one night before starting a new save file, I installed about 3-5 mods and that's when the problem started. I just can't recall which mods I installed. I'm not asking for people to diagnose this, but if anyone notices a problem with the mods or any conflicts I'd really appreciate it.

Also, the problem of it happening just near towns, or villages may be random there have been a few times in the wilderness I have had the same problem but it is almost a guarantee to happen while approaching/near or in villages/towns.

 

**Edit** - I have gone through most if not all Skyrim troubleshooting steps, including the ones pinned in this forum, and most other common troubleshooting areas.

Thanks for any and all help, even if you can't find anything thanks ahead of time.

I had exactly the same problem not too long after after running Enhanced Towns and Villages where I would lose around 10 to 20 fps in towns/cities/villages.

Running around outside Whiterun (facing away from the city) I had a steady 58fps (using enb frame limiter) when I turned to face Whiterun it would drop to 30fps.

So i removed the mod and still the problems persisted.

 

How I solved this was to clean install and steer clear of town/city altering mods ;)

 

Always helps to use BOSS to see if the mod might need 'cleaning' and if there are any compatibility issues between said mods and the latest version of Skyrim.

Also have you tried defragging your HD?

Yea defragging is one of the first things I have done because I usually have no problem.

 

Its crazy that you said your problem was fixed with the removal of enhanced towns and villages, as I've never had a problem using it, I'll see if that'll help out
