Dragonborn PC Version Bug List : V

» Tue May 07, 2013 1:39 am

Feel free to post here in this thread any reproducible bugs you encounter related to the Dragonborn DLC.

Please first try to confirm that your problem is not caused by a mod, and if so provide the following information below:

1. Description (please use spoiler tags when describing spoilerry stuff)
2. Severity (Minor, Medium, or Severe)
3. Steps to reproduce
4. Your PC specs (CPU, RAM, GPU, display resolution, Windows version, GPU driver version)
5. Mod load order (please use spoiler tags for long lists)

If you think the bug is related to a script error, you might also want to check your Papyrus debug log.

How can I confirm my PC specs?
1. Open Start menu, click inside the "Search programs and files" box and type "dxdiag" and press Enter
2. This opens a screen that displays your Processor (CPU), Memory (RAM) and various other information.
3. Click on the tab labeled "Display" to confirm the model of your graphics card (GPU) and your display resolution, as well as your AMD or Nvidia graphics driver version.

How can I confirm whether my problem is caused by a mod?
Start a brand new game from Helgen with no mods and try to reproduce the bug.

How can I confirm my mod load order?
1. Open plugins.txt within the folder location C:\Users\[insert username]\AppData\Local\Skyrim

How can I check the Papyrus debug log?
In order to create a debug log, open Skyrim.ini in My Documents/My Games/Skyrim and add the following lines or make sure they are toggled to "1" instead of "0".

[Papyrus]bEnableLogging=1bEnableTrace=1bLoadDebugInformation=1

With these settings on, the game will create a new folder at “...\My Documents\My Games\Skyrim\Logs\Script”.

Your logs will appear inside that folder, in the form of a text file named Papyrus.#.log with the # number ranging from 0 to 3. The 0 log is always the newest with older logs cycling through the increasing numbers. (Note that the text file will be very large and much easier to review using http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.1.5.html rather than Windows Notepad.)

Every time I near the northern half of Solstheim, the game either freezes or CTDs. This is severe, as I cannot discover or even enter several locations. I have windows 7 64-bit, NVidia, 6gb ram, it can handle just about everything skyrim has to offer. It is completely up-to-date. I have a few mods, including SkyUI, however and I use SKSE; the rest are made myself with only a few item changes and damage changes; nothing changing graphics. Dragonborn loads first, then Hearthfire, the official texture packs (I did try disabling those, but it changed nothing), then Dawnguard, followed by the mods.

I downloaded a patch from steam that appeared about an hour before this post that was labeled for Dragonborn. Was the patch for real?

Might not be related to your issue, but if I'm not mistaken I think your driver corresponds to Catalyst 11.9, pretty old driver from 2011. You may want to try upgrading to http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/AMDCatalyst132BetaDriver.aspx, which is the latest one, or at least http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx.

» Mon May 06, 2013 11:33 pm

Oh, lol. I'll update it now. Thanks.

» Tue May 07, 2013 12:16 am

If it was 990MB, then that was the Dragonborn DLC that you downloaded.

The last official Skyrim Patch was 1.8, which was rolled out on Steam a few months ago.

» Tue May 07, 2013 12:20 pm

It was 990MB, but I had been playing Dragonborn for maybe 5 or 6 hours before it downloaded. Plus, the "downloading" folder under "SteamApps" had only the .esm and .bsa files in it during the download at 1:45 PM EST today. The 'patch,' as I called it, had those files in it, but in a deeper folder along with the .patch files.

Anyway, it seemed to improve performance a little, so I am not complaining... I still crash, though.

fighting mirack
after he goes in to the center pit for the frist time he just stays there
1 dragon is flying above .. unable to use dragon rend on it ..
npc pathing issues
walking off water falls or getting stuck between barrels

» Tue May 07, 2013 6:41 am

This is a known issue even on the XBox version. Reloading is the best option, however, if you can kill the other dragon or become COMPLETELY hidden in stealth, it may fix.

» Tue May 07, 2013 9:06 am

Can you provide your PC specs and mod list?

» Tue May 07, 2013 2:32 am

1.) Description: When walking up to Nchardak for the first time, game crashes to desktop. Does not show error. Happens every time.
2.) Severe
3.) Making a new game I guess.
4.) Windows 7, 8 GB RAM, Gateway DX4860, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti, Intel i5-2320 CPU 3GHz
5.) Mod load order

@Mockingbear
This might not fix the problem, but you absolutely MUST move Update.esm above Dawnguard.esm in your mod manager of choice. This could cause a lot of problems.

» Tue May 07, 2013 2:50 am

Agreed, and I'd also recommend moving Dragonborn.esm up just below Dawnguard.esm and Hearthfires.esm, and then the High Res Texture pack plugins just below that. If you like, you can even use that plugins.txt file to edit your load order in Notepad. Personally, I find it a bit more convenient than clicking the arrows in the launcher when working with a big list.

I resolved my issue with the Miraak thing. A clean install worked.

- Cannot mount dragon, PC stuck in the air http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1441601-dragonborn-pc-version-bug-list/page__view__findpost__p__22203995 - Fixed by doing one of these methods:
1. Delete - Data\meshes\actors\dragon
if that doesn't work, then do the following
2. Disable - Realistic Ragdoll Force

Minor - finishing animations against Rieklings are delayed. Whenever the finisher activates, there's a very short pause before the animation plays. (Similar to how Werewolf transformations were being delayed in Dawnguard).

Looks like the animation is calibrated to human-sized enemies, so it's being confused by the scale - though it might be caused by something else entirely.

Severe - the script to absorb dragon souls is not running. Confirmed to be caused by the unofficial patch, though it's being worked on. (Don't uninstall the patch though, that'll mess up the game even more.)

» Tue May 07, 2013 12:02 pm

There's already Unofficial Dragonborn Patch, UDBP, that fixes the dragon soul absorbtion for most dragons. Due to lack of source files for Dragonborn though, you will not be able to absorb souls from respawned dragons. That bug was fixed by the USKP and will be refixed in UDBP once sources become available.

» Tue May 07, 2013 6:42 am

my bugs are medium severity:
-Miraak doesn′t steal dragon′s souls from me
-I am the chief of the rieklings,but they don′t appear to defent me
