Infinite Loading Screen, Volkihar Keep (DG)

Post » Sun Oct 13, 2013 4:49 am

Just recently got a gaming PC, Skryim was the first game I bought. Logged over 500 hours on PS3 and the primary reason I bought a gaming PC is this game. It's one of my favorites of all time and I saw all of the mods that make the game better and more immersive. Fast forward to yesterday. ~40 hours into my first save, I'm about to

Spoiler
storm Volkihar Keep with the Dawngaurd
and I get the infinite loading screen. I get it at a few other places (Eagle's Nest player home mod) but this is the only place that it's game-breaking. I can't continue the Dawngaurd story line. I tried going in through the balcony and finding a back way in, but there isn't one.

Also, note that the only mods I've added in the past ~3 days is Skyrim community level uncapper and Double Cursor Fix DCF Plugin.

What I've tried:

Deleting built up saves

Using console command and going coc qasmoke to dev room and waiting 31 in-game days to reset everything

Un-installing all mods individually and testing after the un-installation of each mod.

Deleting my .ini files and loading skyrim back up so that it makes new ones

Loading an older save and messing around on it for a little while then loading my broken save and trying to enter the keep

Mods I have/had installed [putting spoiler because it's a long list] and the only programs I have are NMM and SKSE:

-No spinning death animation

-Run/Sprint/Jump/Jog re-animation

-Bosmer armor pack, high res

My PC specs -

Wrye Bash, or NMM (if you use either) can export your load list. (WB copies it to the clipboard for you, and you simply paste it into a post here.)

No. Pretty new to PC gaming. Never even heard of it before. Would it help with this problem?

Whoa, load order, please use BOSS and fix. Your save is probably screwed.

Downloading BOSS right now.

How can I tell if the load order is jacked up on my own? What would I be looking for?

It will sort your order, tell you what needs cleaning and what mods are obsolete or not compatible. Doing this will reduce CTD's, grab all the Unofficial Patches and you will be ok.

BOSS changed my load order to this

the only conflictions it showed is Sounds of Skyrim and Climates of Tamriel.

And I've never had a CTD one time in Skyrim thus far..the only problem I've faced is this.

Grab the Unofficial Patches, grab the compatibility patch for SOS and CoT, clean dirty mods with TES5Edit, run BOSS, make a Bashed Patch with Wrye, start a new game.

Ugh..I'm going to have to start a new game? :bonk:

Oh well. Guess it's better to have a clean save than try to repair an already broken one..thanks for the help guys.
