In preparation for Skyrim Anniversary Edition, and the modpocalypse expected to follow its release, I trimmed my mod encumbrance down to a respectable handful. Essentials corresponding Alternate Start - Live Another Living and some additional followers, including Inigo and Lucien. I started a new spunky and everything was fine, until I quit to do some actual work and then proven to reload that game on my lunch wear. A black CRT screen, with the music still acting, was complete I got.

No of the usual Skyrim tricks—switching to fullscreen borderless way, working IT as an administrator with Windows 7 compatibility on—seemed to help, then I found a position from modder Joseph Russell, the creator of Lucien, who has patterned what's causing unsuccessful the emergence. Turns out early players are having the cookie-cutter crash, which is caused past the a la mode shape of Skyrim running scripts faster than previous ones did. This causes problems with mods, like Russell's, that bank along them.

Whether you bought the Anniversary Version OR not, your version of Skyrim Special Edition has mechanically updated to one built with a new compiling program, Visual Studio 2019 rather than Visual Studio 2015. And that seems to have made it slightly too efficient for its have good.

Every bit A.E. explains, the problem "was approach from my patchless fundamental interaction organization, which checks the player's mods when they load the courageous and fills aliases with NPCs from other mods, such as Inigo." The script for that arrangement, which searches for esp files—mods with plugins that add or modify world content—was running quicker than it used to. "This meant that when the player live the game, Inigo's esp was detected," Russell explained, "so the plot tried to snap his reference to lay into the alias. However, every bit the playscript was running so fast, Inigo's reference hadn't had time to load, so the hand was attempting to fill the alias with a NULL, causing a crash."

Bertrand Arthur William Russell taped it with an update to his modern that adds a three-second delay to the script, though if you're having the same trouble—which even players on Xbox are experiencing—it whitethorn be caused by other heavily scripted mods. I've out of action ones that add followers for now, and everything's working fine again. For straight off.
