PSA on the Issue with CTD involving leaving mechanists lair !FIXED!

[D.e.v.i.OS]

Greetings everyone

I have been testing this for the last hour.
IF u get the CTD from leaving the "mechanists lair"
even if you leave via console commands ( coc redrocketext )
should you get a distance of about (the Orginal placement) USS Constitution to it
your game WILL allways crash so thats a nice chunk taken away from your game.

ps. while running this test I had NO active mods

sidenote: I tried 12 diffrent angles to see if I could get to the Lair all atempts ended in CTD

EDIT : It seems the effect can be tied to "Molecular Level"
or any quest shortly after on the MAIN quest line.

This mod solves the problem:

If you do not think this is a big issue heres about the size of the CTD area I personaly am experiencing

I was talking to Proctor Ingram for The Molecular Level AFTER completing the Automaton questline and after giving her the Signal Interceptor plans the game CTD's without errors, every time.

Something tells me they're connected.

I got a ctd the first time I left, however when I replayed the final battle again it worked fine, now I can leave and come fine also. Not sure its a random thing, I do have some mods running.(not many).

[IronSquid501]

I had one CTD when leaving but, again, I left just fine later on.
However, these ones seem to be consistent - I can't talk to Proctor Ingram about the Sig. Interceptor without CTD after completing Automatron and OP can't leave in the Boston Airport area. Something tells me it may have to do with Boston Airport and perhaps the Signal Interceptor/Boston Airport Workshop.

I have the exact same issue, this is definetely caused by the automatron DLC. :/

[Scooby420]

Okay the issue is fixed, you need to delete the SWF files in your interface folder that have to do with UI mods that alter the compass. It worked for me, here's the source: https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/4bhyg5/game_breaking_bug_automatron_void_of_ctd_doom/

There you go blaming the DLC when in fact it was a mod causing the problem.

The no dotdotdot mod is the culprit by the way, as well as any that changes the HUD. Entering the Mechanist's layer adds a new map icon to the map files (the M logo on the map is unique to that location) and is causing conflicts with previously installed HUD mods that change any map files (texture, resolution, color, etc).

Read this link for more details.

That would explain why I never saw any threads on the closed forum about this issue.

"nodotdotdot" removed .

1000 thx :)

DEF_UI
is also one of the Mods to cause CTD
It is also a HUD (extremely useful) Mod

I talked to the creator of "no dotdotdot" on Nexus and he updated the mod! I just checked it out and the issue seems to be resolved.

try this mod

I tested a bit further, the culprit is not exactly the mod but the HUD files in the interface folder. If you delete only the hudmenu file it should work out.

This mod solves the problem:
