Friend Papyrus help

[Advint]

I have a friend that recently updated some mods and is having a problem with CTD on saves sometimes. So I told him to do the whole papyrus skyrim ini thing and im not quite sure what to make of it. I'm certainly ill equipped when it comes to reading papyrus logs to hunt down errors so I thought I would ask someone here.  So far I've identified Little Skimpy Armor Replacer in the log and some aela the huntress mod he installed. Anyway here's the files he sent me () and I know he will be grateful for any tips.

Edit: I have included his load order in the zip file, forgot about it. I'm trying to convince him to run boss and tes5edit but he is stubborn.

The load order along with that papyrus script would be very informative.

Only thing conclusive from the logs is that there either a lot of script heavy mods running, or uninstalled on those saves.

 

Again load order would help.

Failing that the log from a "New" game, would work as well.

His most up to date papyrus logs and load order, it did not appear to occur on a new game. Did convince him to run tes4edit though.

So reading over the Papyrus logs & load order:

 

The warnings and errors in the logs are from installed mods.

There almost all script related, so this system is running out of resources to run the scripts in.

 

Other resources are being pushed to the max here as well. Hi definition meshes (Static Mesh Improvement Mod, Grass on Steroids, SkyMoMod, 3dNPC, Bathing Beauties Luxury Suite, Better Quest Objectives, etc), textures (enhanced Blood), Audio(Sounds of Skyrim), animation (ASX, AP, Dance of Death, etc)

 

My first impression is that your friend probably has a really high-powered computer and video card, and thinks it should be able to handle anything in Skyrim.

In a perfect world it would, but the limiting factor here is what the game engine can handle.

 

The game itself is very unstable, always has been.

 

To get that system stable your friend will have to pare down on the script heavy mods (Skyre, Bathing Beauties, Deadly Dragons, Better Quest Objectives, 3dNPC)

Pare down on the graphics intensive mods(Grass on Steroids, Water, Static Mesh Improvement Mod, Enhanced Blood, Realistic Lighting Overhaul, Immersive Creatures)

Pare down on the number of follower mods.

 

Other things to improve the situation:

Make sure all mods are up to date, especially the Unofficial Patches.

Use BOSS, TES5Edit, Wrye Bash - they work wonders.

 

SSME http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/50305/? can provide memory to run some of that

OneTweak  http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40706/? can help a lot

EnBoost http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/38649/? can help

Stable uGrids http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/41592/? can help a lot

having the entry "ClearInvalidRegistrations=1" in the skse.ini file can help

 

having a defragger run on the hardrive will help performance

For now, reduce the workload of the game (mods)

 

Let me know how it is going.

Appearantly he used some player.kill save method and it worked for him, though I feel that this is not a permanent solution. In fact I have started to implement some of the things you linked to my game as they are certainly good advice for anyone. Thank you for taking the time to respond and for the wealth of information.
