fort snowhawk keeps crashing my skeetrim, anyone got a link to the fix? ty
i have no mods, strict legit vanilla legendary difficulty play, skyrim se, i turned off things like essentials and put in killable children so everyone can die like morrowind, but the outdoor cell of fort snowhawk outside of morthal and solitude makes my game crash when i enter it. the ingame days passed are well over 40-50 ingame days, so the zone should have reset.. when i start a new game file, the zone loads perfectly fine, but when i try to go on my lvl51 mage argonian with all my legit progress the game will crash big time woopsies.

i tried deleting and reinstalling the game files, and again the new game file with no mods loads fort snowhawk outside just fine. when i continue my 150 real hour lvl 51 argonian mage gameplay with no mods that outdoor cell crashes when i hit the invisible barrier to enter it.. i've tried the console command to purge cells but that is mostly for the indoor cells..

anyways, i have been avoiding west of morthal to not have an issue but i am at a loss why that file is corrupted in that area. i never used a mod like custom items nor npc, only turned off the essentials so everyone could die..

ah well, if no one has any idea or a link to a discussion, then i will likely abandon my save and then start a new game which has no issues at all..

thank you frens!!

your friendly gayborhood skeetrim man!~~

pc specs: craptop, dell inspiron 6 core 8gb ram 200gb hard drive windows 10 normal, all drivers updated and good, memory not maxed out, task manager running at 7%, ultra graphics by default minus some shadows turned off for fps.. this laptop runs gtaV and arkham knight very smoothly, skyrim on ultra ty

You can't disable mods then continue with a save, you would have to start a new game..... or load a save from before you installed the mods.

thank you but the essentials was an ini tweak and killable children both of them have been existing the same the entire gameplay :) nothing has changed from when i started.. and a new game will not crash but this one will which means there is some corruption i cannot figure out

thank you tho

Disable a mod and continue the saves is a sure fireway to corrupt your save.
Without knowing the entire list of mod the save is using, it is hard to troubleshoot for you.

As far as I know, there is many mod that allowed you to kill essential NPC, but which one are you talking about?

thats just it, other than killable children and using ini tweak to make everyone nonessential, i never used any mods.. there are no npc spawns outside that place that are essential, no uniques

if i used a new game file and it crashed then that would be the issue, but it only does it on this current file

thank you for the thoughts :) i think i may just give up on this save

The only mod I know of that allows one to kill children that does not have major bugs is Immersive Children and it requires a bit of work to get working

Question: Did you complete the "Seasons Unending" quest when you negotiate with the groups at High Hrothgar and gave the Fort to either the Stormcloaks or Imperials?

In researching the topic, it appears there may be an issue when the ownership is changed during the Civil War questline that removes the Necromancer's that previously occupied the Fort.

If you have not progressed in the Civil War questline and the Fort is still occupied by necromancer's, perform the following test (create a test save you do not intend to keep):

As you approach the Fort, and reach the point just before the crash, use the console command "Killall." This should kill all non-essential NPC's within the area of the Fort. Then approach and see if it still crashes.

best answer yet i think you might have it ..

so my fort amol has changed to stormcloak without me doing any quests, just after 200 days in the game the cloaks decided to take it over instead of the mages.. i bet fort snowhawk did the same thing.. its okay though i have given up :) the character ran its course and so im making new guys, at some point the old save file had too many people die and too many quests go bugged or trashed, its better for me to start over neurotically

thank you fren! i give out handjobs and cookies but im all out of flour ;)
