SKYRIMLE Skyrim performance and crash prevention mod

[Kelmych]

Skyrim performance and crash prevention mod  does periodic buffer cell clearing. It is based on a mod used in Fallout New Vegas.

 

I haven't tried it yet but I will be looking at it.

sounds interesting, but this guy really is not the most experienced modder, and he's fiddeling around with some real sensitive stuff there...

That was my first thought, I can't imagine it's a good idea to port a mod like this into a different game, much less a different engine.

Yeah It looks promising in the future but seems very much like an alpha or beta test. "playing for 5 hours without a crash" is not really saying much. My first thought was how many scripts this mod was gonna break under the hood without even realizing it.

From what I understand, I think it just uses the PCB command.

PCB

This will free up used memory, often times increasing fps after any given amount of time in game. Best used while in interior cells. However, since it purges cached cells, any cells you visited in the recent past will have to be reloaded completely when reentered

The OCS author apparently doubts whether this function still works or not

 

 

Edit: There's some threads suggesting that Skyrim uses a different memory management system (according to beth), so this command may not behave as expected like it did in earlier games (oblivion, FO3, etc)

 

Edit2: and another quote "questionable and game-breaking purges while running a live game that potentially destroy in-game content that you might need"'

 

Edit3: and people are saying alt-tab'ing back and forth will save more memory than this command does

I'm using it. It seems to be doing good for at least the first few hrs and around whiterun.
