Anyone else having game crashes seemingly related to archery?

[TheDementedSalad]

I've had like... 10? Crashes so far? And all of them have been when I am using archery and shooting an enemy... Has anyone else come across something similar?

Like, not a single crash has happened unless I'm shooting an enemy.

[Hobbes]

Yeah, same here.

I tried disabling lumen and running the app in true full screen (as opposed to borderless). It improved a bit, but it still crashes.

Tried deleting the dll files some ppl mentioned (DLSS related) and it didn't help.

I can consistently expect a crash when firing arrows, so I'm just saving before every fight lol

[Varanus]

All my crashes, except one, have been due to alchemy, thus far. : |

[★REM★]

nop, playing archer (going for arcane archer) never crashed, but i played only 8 or 9 hours so far.

[halfmonkey]

Have you tried limiting the frame rate? If this is anything like the original, physics go wonky with unstable frames.

[Elykar]

Echoing the sentiment that alchemy constantly crashes my game. I play an archer and there are no issues from that (so far). Kind of sucks that I have to save before every alchemy session.

[Myztkl©-Kev]

im playing an archer, and the only crashes im getting are memory leak related.

I'm also receiving a lot of crashes when I'm shooting my bow. Maybe it has to do with the paralyze on hit effect? I had zero crashes before I got that ability.

[Kashra Fall]

Done alchemy, done archery, haven't crashed luckily. Am 38 alchemy and 29 archery.

all my crashes have come from loading screens. saving before entering and exiting every single door. if archery and alchemy are a problem too then thats more things to worry about. imagine releasing a game in such a state

Yep. No issues until level 75 and paralyze on hit

[EternalTheDragon]

Yes. I have crashed around 30 times now. I have to quick save throughout the fight. Sometimes it crashes in the same spot with the same enemy too

Oh yeah I've been shootin' da one goblin in the dungeon and it seems I have:

Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x00000001e300001c


It almost sounds like:
STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM. YOU VIOLATED THE EXCEPTION ACCESS.

80% of people are using archery, it's not an archery issue.

iv tested it and it is infact the archery skill, the crash will happen if you hit a tarket who is under the paralyze skill, ether beucase added two stacks of it crashes or just hitting the allready stunned enemy crashes its ether or you can test this by hitting an enemy alot when they are stunned and you will crash at some point if you never hit them when they are glowing green then you will never crash.

Probably a physics issue. The game probably has a conflict between deciding between the paralysis state and the non-paralysis state when the character is hit and then dies from an arrow.

This was a problem in Oldblivion fixed by either a game patch or the Unofficial patch.
