Bug Workaround

CTD (crash to desktop)

Try re-generating your .ini files. They keep information about the video card, and after days of debugging, ended up being the cause of my problem.

stuck at crafting menu

player.moveto player

This bug came up when I was using a mod that had only partially been installed.

cleaning a savegame

cleanup save method

NOTE:

This has worked, but there are no guarantees...

  • disable all mods
  • load savegame
  • save
  • exit game
  • use fallrim tools to clean save
  • load save with new mods


rebuild save method

NOTE:

I have not performed this yet. At the very least you'll want

  • quest completion
  • perks
  • exp

I assume settlements/appearance will be difficult to port.

New idea: create a new/clean save, and write a script to complete quests
