UICosmeticMenu script CTD : V

» Thu Nov 07, 2013 10:48 am

I've been getting constant CTDs due to a script called UICosmeticMenu. It has been driving me nuts!

The Papyrus log usually shows some error like this:

"Error: Unable to bind script UICosmeticMenu to UICosmeticMenu (21000E06) because their base types do not match"

or this:

"warning: Property UICosmeticMenuMessage on script UICosmeticMenu attached to UICosmeticMenu (21000E06) cannot be initialized because the script no longer contains that property"

or this:

"warning: Could not find type UICosmeticMenu in the type table in save"

Every time it's that infernal UICosmeticMenu!!!

Is anyone else seeing this? Does anyone know what the problem is here?

Add this to SKSE.ini in the skyrim\Data\SKSE folder. If SKSE.ini doesn't exists, create it. This will delete references to scripts that doesn't exists anymore

[General]
ClearInvalidRegistrations=1

Backup your skyrim.ini / skyrimprefs.ini then recreate them with the skyrim launcher. Avoid z-fighting tweaks / map tweaks / ugrid > 5 / too high values for iLargeIntRefCount
If using an ENB, deactivate it (Shift-F12) before loading the save
Create a new game, make a save after the intro sequence in Helgen, then try to load this save first, then load the problematic save.

Did you update one of the mods. Some mods need to follow specific instructions when updating since they use scripts and sometimes they cause issues when the mod is updated.

Follow Marks suggestion and then check to see what was updated or changed for your mods and check to see if any instructions on the proper method to update.

Hopefully it works for you.
