Difference between revisions of "Category:Troubleshooting"

This is a collection of articles on troubleshooting TES IV problems -- gotchas, common mistakes, CS bugs, etc. The basic ideas and topics were originally discussed in this ESF thread.

The original list started back in February 2007 has grown to the point that it needed to be split into separate articles. These articles list of some common mistakes and their effects on players and/or the CS. Please suggest more ideas if you can.

Common Bugs - These are annoying problems with the CS and game engine.

Common Mistakes - These are things that all mod-creators should know not to do.

Crashes - Common problems that may cause crashes (CTDs).

Debugging - When something just isn't working right, look here for possible causes and ways to track down the bug.

Performance Problems - This section is intended as a place to list performance problems and tips, especially those related to scripting.

Fixing the AddTopic Bug - Critical dialog bug fix.

Obscure Bugs - These issues don't occur very often, and we don't even really know what causes them, but they hurt nonetheless.

Helpful Programs - These programs can help a lot when troubleshooting.
