Missing floors, walls, texture oddities...

[Sakiri]

Okay, so.. I've posted issues with this build before and I don't know what the problem is.

 

I've noticed that with this STEP build I've been getting more frequent CTDs but no idea what causes them. I'm kind of used to CTDs but when they happen soon into the game session I'm starting to get annoyed. And they're random. I'll be running through town, I'll get to a gate, I'll be running through a random field somewhere. Boom.

 

Then this happened.

That there fixed itself upon going "wtf" and reloading a save. But it was.. odd.

 

AI stopped responding properly randomly.  Went on a dragon hunt with FarkasI(had Inigo with me) and he just kinda stood there stupid. Not fighting back. He did this throughout the Companions quest line as well, just randomly stop hitting things. I've had followers do this before but he wasn't actively a follower, but rather a quest follower, and I've not seen him do that as one before. 

 

Had a CTD using the "Summon Inigo" spell from that mod inside Helgen. He apparently decided that ignoring the bandits was bad(I did not have weapons out, he was mounted, he's supposed to ignore combat under those conditions) and ran off somewhere, I went to summon him after finding his corpse wake and boom. CTD.

This was Greywinter Grotto. I went in there to clear it out for Aela. I had to clip through the floor all the way down to Hell in order to get the last wolf to kill for that update. I couldn't find it at first.. half the floor was missing.

 

And this.

That hole in the back is where I finally found that last wolf.

This is occurring across the two characters I've made since reinstalling and setting up STEP.

 

This is occurring in old saves of the second character, the first one I cleaned most of the old saves out for.

 

First character had approximately 23 hours on it.

Second character has approximately 30 hours on it.

 

Restarting isn't... horrible... but I'm not really wanting to again. Frequent restartitis is one of the causes of my putting the dang game down and being done with it for a while. Any ideas what's going on here? Existing saves hosed? Halp?

Install and enable Memory Blocks Log to verify the SKSE memory patch is configured and working correctly. This should at least pinpoint or eliminate the SKSE settings as the cause of the crashes.

 

Double check your install of Static Mesh Improvement Mod and any lighting mods for the smelter.
