Nemesis Crashes at 93% while updating
Trying to update the engine, but every single time the Engine crashes while updating. Some people online say to just keep trying. Ive tried 10 times and it fails every single time at 93%

Anyone know whats up or what to do?

Is it giving you any messages / errors?

Have you used FNIS at all?

I hear files from that can break Nemesis and can be a real chore to use them together.

To be honest, I am still sticking with fnis because it has never let me down. Even several mods made for nemesis work with it. I do have OAR as well.

No, forgive me, i guess the proper term would be that it closes itself. No Microsoft crash report. Just ends..

Ill try to remove and redownload for the time being.

Ok, I HAD FNIS before which I was using, but I did read that it isnt needed if you have Nemesis, so I got rid of it as a tool in Vortex. Maybe I will try to remove it entirely

Yeah if there are behavior files from fnis left over it could definitely be breaking Nemesis.

Just making sure you are using it correctly. None of the check boxes up top should be checked unless you have those specif mods. Click update Engine let it run then click Launch Nemesis Behavior Engine. The bottom bar is the true progress bar and you'll get the message Behavior generation complete. The middle bar with amount of animations will never fully true green.
If it crashing any where along these steps, try checking you virus program and make sure that is not the cause.

I had the exact same issue (Nemesis crashing at the same point). Turned out I had added several mods whose name included characters that Nemesis couldn't handle. I removed the offending characters and it worked perfectly.
I think one of the no no characters was the question mark. "?" But there were a handful of others.
Anyway, that might be your issue.

Its occasionally done that to me as well (Just closing before completing). I can't prove its windows or anything else but i try to not do anything (no browser, no action going on) while its doing its thing.

Figure its needy and wants my full attention.

Ok, so no luck so far guys :( In the interest of consolidating replies; I have tried the following:

- Removed both FNIS and Nemesis completely, and re downloaded Nemesis
- Followed the correct procedure (Didnt check any boxes), and pressed Update Engine
- Closed all other applications
- Went into Task Manager and limited the Application to a single core (Recommended online, didnt with all either)

I simply open Nemesis, press Update, and let the green bar at the bottom fill until 93%, at which point the application closes itself

Just stopped to eat real quick, will now go through my mod list and check for incompatibility, but my list is short and I feel this is unlikely

mmm - maybe it is not writing the files, so just tossing more thoughts.

If launching from MO2 did you set it as an executable?

Try going to file location - mine is skyrim se folder/ data/ nemesis_engine and right click / run as administrator on Nemesis Unlimited Behavior Engine.exe

I looked at my mod history and I'm using the following nemesis add-ons maybe you missed a requirement for a mod? If you look at the mods requiring for these 3 you might see a mod you have. ihdk

I very much appreciate it. I too was just reading more and more Reddit posts and stuff, but I found something that ended up working.

Im using Vortex (sounds like everyone prefers MOD2, ♥♥♥♥ lol ), and what I did was "Purge" my mod list. Im not exactly sure what this did, maybe wipe a cache or something, I really dont know, but I then "Deployed" all the mods again, and this time the Update went through!!!

I appreciate everyones time. Im sure ill be back with more questions in the future.

Cheers :)

If I had to guess I'd say one of the mods that Nemesis is trying to process is the culprit. Something got messed up or corrupted, and once Nemesis reaches that mod it quits.

Try disabling all the mods that use Nemesis/FNIS animations, then run nemesis and see if it still happens. If it doesn't, enable each mod one by one and run nemesis to see when it occurs.

Sounds like a possible reason for the issue; Im like 2 weeks into modding Skyrim, so tbh Im still kinda just pressing buttons and hoping it works; but I did "Purge" all the mods through Vortex like I mentioned, and that seemed to do the trick :)

nemesis is literally horrible to use, you never know when it will crash on you.....
