Crash on Telos Surface
Whenever I try to take the shuttle from the Ithorian hangar to the telos surface the game crashes as soon as the cinematics ends.
I tried playing in windowed and turning the grass off and it seemed to help a little (ie I can get further before it crashes) but it still does and I get a driver crash as well.
Here is a screenshot of what happens : http://img.techpowerup.org/160104/capture021.jpg

EDIT : I am playing with the restored content mod and nothing else

Some people report turning off shadows will fix it.

Had same issue a while ago, tried whole host of general fixes, none of them worked. How I managed to get through it was quick saving as soon as the last loading screen ends(spam it till the saving 'loading' screen shows up), then loading that save, making sure all the graphics settings were at the lowest(mostly grass and shadows seem to be the issue), and skipping through the dialogue with Bao Dur as fast as I could, weirdly enough after a few tries it worked. Just be sure to make a concrete save on telos before trying it out.

It seemed to be tied to the specific save though, because I haven't seen it in the 3 playthroughs I've had since.

Actually just managed to replicate it, shadows + grass is the fix you're looking for.

I managed to fix it by changing back Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=1 to DisableVertexBufferObjects=1 in the ini file.

Weird, that is pretty much turning it off.
(Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=0)
Good that you managed to get past it though c:

Sorry to necro an old thread, but I just stumbled on this problem and I want to confirm this solution as correct.

DisableVertexBufferObjects=0

Thanks!

Same problems, same mod, tried practically everything i could find on the internet and no dice. I go out the door of the ebon hawk onto telos and it starts saving despite me turning autosaves off and hangs in a weird way.

It says saving and then sits there doing nothing about a quarter of the way through the bar! When i try to close it or end task or anything it pops a "Are you sure you want to quit this save?" thing and then doesnt let me hit yes or no.

I actually have to end task and then wait for it to decide to close. All of my graphics are to low, i turned off grass, shadows, etc.

Windows 10, I7 , 1080gtx, 32gigs of ram.
