Just reinstalled Skyrim for the fifth time, and i have some questions to ask

Hello there :)


 


I just finished reinstalling Skyrim for the fifth time. And before i do anything else i would like ask some questions


 


1. Do i need to patch the TESV.exe with NTCore 4GB patcher when i am planning on using a ENB plus  the ENBoost feature enbhost.exe that is bundled with it?


 


2. Do you recommend me to install these mods here http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/33526/? and http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/46465/?


 


I would like to optimized my Skyrim to prevent those annoying CTDs and infinitely loading screen. Honestly, i did managed to get the famous infinite loading screen with the music playing on the background with my previous Skyrim :( I didn't experienced any infinite loading screen until i decided to try out Fair Skin Complexion by HHaleyy and that is where i have started experiencing infinite loading screen when trying to load the savedata.


 


I noticed that when i attempt to load the savedata wheres my character is located at either towns or at the open world it will ended up stuck at the loading screen forever, but i was able to load my savedata when my character is in a small area/cell.


 


Before installing FSC i did manage to install the requirements mods before installing FSC they are the latest version! Groovtama XP32MSE 2.82, Bodyslide 2.6a, HDT PE v14.28, FNIS


 


I installed the uncompressed version of FSC on a custom race and i am the only one who is using the custom race. So i am guessing that using the uncompressed version of FSC on a single character is too demanding for my system to handle it? :( I managed to tried out the optimized version of FSC and i was able to load my savedata everytime it doesn't matter where my character was. I didn't install any high resolution textures mods except for FSC.


 


The savedatas is created by the vanilla Skyrim they are pretty fresh :P I started newgame and saved the game when the person released me from the handcuffs and yet another save is where i escaped from Helgen on the openworld of Skyrim.


 


Here are my pc specs


i5 3470, 8GB RAM, AMD 7850 2GB

Check out my guide. In phase 3 when you download Seasons of Skyrim and install it, choose the High Performance option. 

You'll run smooth as butter :)

EDIT: I'm also offering a high level of support for my guide at the moment, as I'm testing a few new mods :)

I think that SKSE already has a memory patch, but I'm not sure. Downloading a memory patch is always a good idea. I would recommend installing "Safety Load", it reduces broken saves and crashes in my case, especially near Whiterun area. Tested on HP laptop with 4GB of ram and a video card with 1GB memory.


Can you make a list of all the mods that you are planning to install? Saved games that are bloated with scripts can crash or result in infinite loading screens even in tiny areas without high quality textures.

And do yourself a favor and start using Mod Organizer. Then you won't be reinstalling a 6th or 12th time. Seriously. It could have already saved you a lot of headaches. And even if you do reinstall for some odd reason you'd be able to keep your mods and slap them back in game in no time.

Skyrim doesn't need a memory patch, like previous titles. It's already set to use maximum of 3.1gb of sys RAM. 

The ONLY way to increase the amount of RAM available to Skyrim is with ENBoost, which actually changes the amount of VIDEO RAM available to Skyrim.

"Sheeson's Memory Patch" (included now in SKSE), doesn't actually increase the amount of memory available. What it does is increases the initial heap size, from 256 to as much as 768 (stable). 

Edit: 

Again, OP. Read through my guide. It covers everything you're going to need, from how to set up SKSE ini files, ENBoost, to mods that help STABILITY, to how to install an HDT body the RIGHT way so that you don't have weird skeleton and mesh problems.....

 

... and even programs that you run OUTSIDE of Skyrim that will help your performance.

It's a VERY informative guide. And if you have questions about any of it, I'm almost always here watching my thread to provide support.
