About this mod Machine translation

This mod fixes a Ghost spawn location inside Halldir's Cairnstone in Falkreath that would cause an immediate crash to the desktop.

Hello!

Have you ever been wandering around Skyrim, only to stumble upon Halldir's Cairn and crash it, kicking you back to the table? The purpose of this mod is to solve this problem.

For me, I was playing Skyrim and happened to come across a cave that I had never actually seen. So I decided to go in. I reached the first underground doorway after the main entrance, but when I opened the door and walked through, it immediately knocked me onto the tabletop. The same crash happened a few more times whenever I saw the right throne.

At first I thought it was a conflict in one of my mods. I do have over 200 mods and similar things have happened before. But after some rigorous testing - deactivating and reactivating my mods in different orders, I decided to Google it. Turns out this is a semi-known bug in this specific area. So this isn't my mod, it's just another bug that Bethesda doesn't want to fix anymore.

So I decided to see if I could fix it! Nothing super crazy. All I had to do was change the type of Ghost summoned from the spawn tag which seemed to cause the crash. I didn't remove any derivatives or take away their power. They should remain as is, just use a different weapon setup or armor type than before.

See this is my first mod, sorry if it doesn't 100% fix it for you. If this is the case I can always try to update further.

Hello!

Have you ever been wandering around Skyrim only to stumble into Halldir's Cairn and have it crash, and kick you right back to your desktop? This mod aims to fix that.

For me, I was playing Skyrim, and just happened to come across a cave I had never really seen before. So I decided to go in. I got to the first underground doorway after the main gate, but when I opened it and walked through, it instantly crashed me to the desktop. And the same crash happened several more times whenever I would look at the right throne.

At first I thought it was a conflict in one of my mods. I do have 200+ mods active, and something similar has happened before. But after some vigorous testing - deactivating and reactivating my mods in different orders, I decided to google it. Turns out it was a semi known bug in that specific area. So it wasn't my mods, it was just yet another bug Bethesda didn't bother to fix.

So, I decided I would see if I could fix it! It wasn't anything super crazy. All I did was change the type of Ghost that was summoned from the spawn markers that seemed to cause the crashing. I didn't remove any of the spawns, I didn't strip them of their powers. They should be exactly as they were, just might use a different weapon setup, or armor type then before.

Seeing as how this is my first mod, I apologize if it doesn't 100% fix it for you. I can always try to update it further if that is the case.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
