CTD help : IV

» Tue Jun 08, 2010 8:35 pm

I played with this set up for more than 5 hours the other day with no problems. Added a few mods, started to CTD a lot. I'm pretty sure I removed the mods I added, but I still have CTD issues. So I'm wondering if I deleted too much (an esm for example). There's no bashed patch currently since I was removing mods trying to debug. The CTDs only happen on loading screens and in Wrye Bash I get a warning about a corrupted file headers for autosave.ess. Is that a corrupted game? Haven't had one yet with Oblivion, so not sure what to look for.

There is some advice worth heeding, in your very post itself. Also, do read the bosslog.txt that pops up upon running BOSS. BOSS does not simply reorder mods; it tells you stuff you might need to know (and act on).

"Salmo the Baker, Cobl.esp
. Note: MAY cause CTDs. Cause uncertain despite extensive debugging. Disable if experiencing a persistant crash."

Thanks

I completely over looked that. I'll check to see what else I missed.

EDIT: No reason to bump this to the top again. So I'll just add this on in case anyone else looks at this. Reinstalling Fran's without Salmo (the advice was to reinstall instead of just unchecking Salmo) didnt seem to do the trick. Luckily I save a lot, so pulling the autosaves out of the save folder and disabling auto seems to have corrected the CTD problem. As well as loading the MOBS patch for Fran's (which I overlooked the first time around). After that I just loaded up one of my last saves and so far so good.
