Frequent freeze and crash

[zanuka]

Hello everyone. I've recently decided to play through New Vegas again leading up to Fallout 4's release, so i used this guide and followed it closely to get everything right. I'm worried however that i must have made a mistake along the way regarding plugin count. The game itself runs smoothly, i only dip below 60FPS sometimes when entering an area. Anyway i ended up with a plugin count of 144. I do not know what the appropriate count is but i know simply having one that is too high will cause the game engine to soil itself regardless. I consistently get either straight up CTD or lockup or even infinite loading screen after maybe ten minutes of play. It's making the game impossibly to enjoy and get immersed in.

 

I have these merged mods created as detailed on the guide:

Merged fixes

NV Uncut Merge

Sandbox6 Merge

Yuki Merge

Machienzo Merge

 

I also followed the wrye flash instructions, except for going through and applying tags to every single mod.. as i was rather tired at the time. If that's the problem i'll be sure to fix it. Any help is appreciated!

While I think that applying the tags is important, not doing so should still give you a stable game.  For the guide was without "Generate Bash Tags" instructions for a long time before those instructions for doing that was ever added.  It must be something else.  I don't know if the plugin count would do this - someone else may know better.

 

Sorry, I'd probably be more helpful if the issue was that the game wasn't loading at all or if you were having main menu issues.  CTDs and infinite loading screens... hmmm...  Could this be some kind of a memory management setting issue?  enblocal.ini setting or NVSE or NVSR or something like that?  Driver setting or fallout.ini/falloutprefs.ini?  Got me.

Looks like i may have set my vram in enblocal to 28GB rather than 2GB.. Looks like that was the problem! Thanks fella :)
