Freezing

[zone22]

First of all I want to see what a wonderful guide you guys have set up. I appreciate all the effort in love with this project has given. It really shows in the quality of work. I've been experiencing freezing when using Fire spells such as Flames. It happens. start/mid spell and can be triggered by NPC's or myself. It's pretty random, but  consistent.

 

Here are my suspects.

DeadlySpellImpacts

Burn Freeze Shock Effects

I'm posting this to see if anyone's experience similar issues and if anyone has the thoughts feel free to comment. Thanks for your time :)

There is another thread with the same name; you might want to add your post on it and you might also get some useful information from the other posts. It's hard to say much without knowing more details about your system and, for the STEP mods, what texture resolution (or STEP profile such as baseline) you used.

[zone22]

This issue is resolved. Switching from Deadly Spell Impacts high to medium completely cleared up the issue. My system is not graphically overloaded considering I have 670 4GB edition with an intel 2500K. If you look at the patch notes, you'll notice that they have had previous issues and I discovered the fix through Bethesda forums and through past experience with the mod. Thank you and I hope this helps other individuals.

Thanks - that's good to know.  I see that he has cleaned the ESP and thinks the problem is fixed in the latest update, but it's worth knowing that this mod is one to look at if users are having trouble.  I'll add a note to the mod thread.
