As the title says, can too many actors cause CTDs? I have ASIS along with momod and a few other cretaure mods. I rarely get crashes, but I noticed if I run from 2-3 big mobs of enemies [8-10+ actors per mob] [they don't despawn], the game starts getting fairly crashy. It has happened once, I had to do killallactors and then the crashing stopped. Thankfully most of my npcs are essential.

Also, is there a way to kill all the hostile mobs currently loaded? Or perhaps a way to force a world respawn? After running the command I waited for 3 days just to be safe [I have a 3 day world reset timer mod]

Remember that this game was made for xbox with an outdated engine. The engine can't handle that many actors especially with a modded game.

Yeah, I guess I need to either not be a coward or let the world reset more often. But really, who wants to fight 10 necromancers at level 10?

Too many things trying to be displayed at once does cause crashes. To get a complete respawn of the Game World requires spending 30 days in Player Home or similiar places like the testing cell.
I have modified my Bashed Patch to decrease the respawn times for the game to less than thirty days.
I can not answer questions on specific Mods
