Game freezes on loading exam in whisper forest

[m3rlin]

I have some game breaking bug: After the introduction at the altar in the whisper forest, the game freezes when loading the exam (screen stays black).

I tried with different graphic configs, and different save games.
I also tried the save game at a different PC, but the problem remains. I also repaired Endereral (3 files corrupted), but that didn't work out.

Does anyone have a clue what I could possibly try to fix my save game?
Thanks!

The game doesn't freeze, the game just removes all of your inventory safely while a blackscreen is active.
That's caused by on overly large amount of coins or ammunition in your inventory. You can either let the game run until it's finished (which might take some time depending on how many billions of coins you've added to your inventory), or load a save before the trial and remove the coins via console command again. I wouldn't suggest placing them into a chest or throwing them away, I can only imagine the kind of performance issues that would cause.

Also, please don't cheat.

Edit: If you've gained the coins "naturally", then you can place them in a chest.

I did use 1 Cheat: player.forceAV Carryweight 5000
and 1 Mod: Ice claw weight 10 plus

I did not cheat on coins.
Are the above cheats a problem? Also, I waited for like an hour or so because I thought of a malperformance of my PC but that didn't work neither.

EDIT: My used inventory is 600+, might that be a problem?

Well, somehow the game can't seem to remove your items from your inventory properly, and that might have something to do with you cheating around.
And all the reports we ever had regarding this particular issue had something to do with people having huge inventories or having lots of coins / ammunition (= arrows).

Do you play on the latest version of the game? Or do you play on an earlier version of the game for mod compatibility?

You can mention it in our forums and upload a savegame in your post so we can have a look at it (.ess and .skse file before the bug happens): https://forum.sureai.net/
However, as I already mentioned before, this has always been an issue with cheated inventories.

Hi stuemper,
danke für deinen Support!
Ich habe in dem Forum einen Thread erstellt: https://forum.sureai.net/viewtopic.php?f=224&t=14144

Das Save Game habe ich auch mal hochgeladen, die SKSE Datei ließ sich aber leider nicht anhängen.

Mein Inventar komplett zu leeren (Ablegen oder in sichere Truhe lagern) hat leider nicht funktioniert.

Let's keep the posts in English for the english speaking people here.
I was a bit quick with judging about cheating coins into the inventory, but that was usually the cause for this particular freeze here. So, sorry about that. I looked into it and it seems like the "Old Iron Arrows" are the cause of this issue. So either throw them away or put them into a chest for now. (I would throw them away, they seem to be corrupted in some way.)
I also responded to the post in our forums.

EDIT: Btw, I saw that your character is only at level 8 currently. I would suggest to explore and level up a bit more otherwise it gets quite hard in the following main quests (not in this one yet). Also you have 3 memory points left to spend when meditating.
