Random CTD : IV

» Sat May 28, 2011 10:45 am

Hey guys.

I'm having some trouble at the moment. I'm getting random crashes to desktop - I could be:

Buying items in the shop
exploring outside
in a dungeon killing gobins,rats
in dialog with a character

The crashes are bad and I have to restart my computer. They could happen in 5 minutes, or after 5 hours playing. There doesn't seem to be any kind of hints to what It could be - so I've come here for help I have no where else to turn.

Here is my load order:

Oblivion.esm
Oscuro's_Oblivion_Overhaul.esm
Mart's Monster Mod.esm
Toaster Says Share v3.esm
Unofficial Oblivion Patch.esp
UOP Vampire Aging & Face Fix.esp
Oblivion Citadel Door Fix.esp

Hard to say what causes the CTD's but here are a couple of things you should fix:

You're missing Mart's Monster Mod for OOO.esm - should load after Mart's Monster Mod.esm

Mart's Monster Mod - Durability & Damage.esp - Don't use with OOO as it already has it.
Mart's Monster Mod - Diverse Imperial Armor.esp - Don't use with OOO as it already contains it.
Mart's Monster Mod - Diverse Creature Skins.esp - Don't use with MMM for OOO as it already contains it.

As for the CTD's, try running the game on a http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331796 and see if it helps. Run http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1074965 and check the comments (it would have mentioned the above for one thing). If this doesn't help, post your load order using Wrye Bash, which also gives version numbers.

Oh - if I fix those things should I have to start a new game? I mean, they could have bugged my characters stats yeah?

Not necessary. Make a save in secluded cell (w/o monsters, NPC's), make the changes, load the save and wait for a respawn (4 days) and that should be it.

Are you sure about the Mart's Monster Mod for OOO.esm? I can't seem to find it in the 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2 downloads.

There is only Mart's Monster Mod.esm, Mart's Monster Mod for OOO.esp, Mart's Monster Mod.esp, Mart's Monster Mod for Francescos.esp

That's why I wanted the load order from Wrye Bash, as it's hard to give advice w/o knowing the versions you're using. I'd recommend using http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1075204 and http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?showtopic=1069109&hl=. You have to remove all the previous MMM resources first, though, so it might be easiest uninstalling everything and start from a fresh install.
