Constant Crashing: Save, Wait, and Load All Cause CTDs (Anyone else?)
Hey all,

I'm checking in to see if others are having the same issue? I'm playing the obivion remastered and it keeps crashing. Almost every time I quicksave, wait, or load a save, the game crashes to desktop. No error messages. Just a straight CTD (Crash to desktop).

I've tried changing graphics settings, turning off overlays, and following various fixes from online posts. None of them worked. I’m using the Steam version with a clean install and no mods. It really feels like these crashes are part of the remaster itself.

Here's a Reddit thread that describes a similar problem:
https://www.reddit.com/r/oblivion/comments/1k8boro/oblivion_remastered_keeps_crashing_when_i_enter_a/

Here's my output as well if it helps anyone who feels like doing some debugging:
...
Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x00000000000004f8

I submitted a refund request but it was denied, likely because of playtime. Most of that time was spent painstakingly on master in addition to trying to fix the game so would caution against this and suggest just getting a refund. I love this series and I want to play it, but it just isn't stable in its current state.

Has anyone found a fix that actually works? Or are we all in the same boat?

I also have the same issue. I tried clearing my cache and it still won't fix it. The game was running fine for the first few days and then recently after starting a new character (got through the sewers with no issue) the crashing began.

nop, almost 40 hours, zero crashes.
Make sure you don't have onedrive backup of documents folder enabled.
And you do not use special characters (" %!<> etc) in your name as oblivion does not accept names like Ragnar "The World Destroyer" Magnusson . Well it does, but then you crash.

This fix finally stopped my game from crashing all the time, may be worth looking into if it applies to you
Same here. super annoying. Everytime I Quicksave the game crashes.

game startet crashing for me after 15h playtime... didn't change a thing it just stoped loading my savefile. tried other saves but the same. on some saves in can get in but if i move it crashes again. support is super useless and tells you all the basic stuff everyone will try before contacting them... i have not heard back from them since i told em to read my first massage where i already said i did all that stuff... steam won't refund since my playtime is already 17h... 2h trying to fix that S++t. new install, updated every stupid driver, run as admin, turned off every overlay and so on but it just won't load the save file... i bet it's a problem with UE5 or GPU drivers.
