Greetings,

I'm getting a consistent CTD without fail when leaving and re-entering the outdoor area of Lakeview Manor. I can leave the area once but once I leave and come back I will crash to desktop.

Here's an example:

I will arrive at Lakeview Manor via Riverwood, no problem. I go inside the manor and finish working on one of the wings of the house. I then go outside to fetch more stone, for example, and it will CTD.

Another example would be loading a save from within the manor. I can go outside and there won't be a crash. I re-enter the house and leave again - CTD.

Finally, I can load from inside the house, travel down to Falkreath but when I head back to Lakeview I am sent back to desktop once the cell reloads.

I think this problem is connected to a Visual C++ error I was getting but all mentions of this error on Google referred to that error as being connected to Dragonborn (or is it Dawnguard?) something to do with a quest an a Soul Cairn.

However this area has nothing to do with that nor have I started that quest or anything related to it.

One of the bits of advice to fix this error is to uninstall all the Microsoft C++ libraries. I did that and now I still get the CTD but no Visual C++ error, just a black console box that accompanies Skyrim crashing to desktop.

I'm rather flummoxed regarding this problem. The only thing I haven't tried is a cell reset, though I don't know for certain if that will fix the problem.

Here is a pastebin of the mods I am running: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=CCkSUHj9

Everything is cleaned with TES5edit and sorted with LOOT.

Thanks in advance

Mike

Have you tried verifying your local files through Steam? Make backup copies of your DLC master files (the ones you cleaned with TES5Edit) before you verify - the verification will undo your cleaning, and once Steam has finished replacing data files you can copy your cleaned masters back into your Data folder.

Has this been happening for a while, or has it started recently after making changes to your load order (such as adding new mods)? If it's started crashing recently, I'd suspect some kind of mod conflict.

Ah... dang. I ended up fixing it. Probably should have been the first thing I tried but it seemed so unusual a crash that I didn't think it would work. Staying indoors and sleeping/waiting for a few days reset the cell and cleared up the crash.

Goodness knows what was causing is.

Thanks for the feedback, your effort to help is not unappreciated.
