This is really starting to get annoying. Most of the time the game drops
to desktop just as one of the NPC opens their mouth. Be it if they are
accosted by me (space bar), be it in the middle of combat, be it when I
walk up to them directly and stand in front of them.
The second instance the game will most frequently crash is just after
reloading a game; sometimes during the load, sometimes immediately
after.
I've done quite a bit of what's been suggested in various forums and
posts:
set shadows to nil
turned thread-loading off
even disabled audio entirely from ini file (don't like this: I want the
audio clues if I am being stalked from behind)
and I have reduced the number of cells that are kept in memory.
I also tried reducing resolution (with indecisive results) dumping AV
software and firewall etc (didn't help).
None of these seems to have made much difference either way. I even went
so far as go buy goty - which is fully patched up to 1.6820 but it
doesn't help against the crashes.
Any other known thing I might try?
