Hi ! So I have a handful of mods installed but didn't have any CTD before, no i have a constant ctd when entering Olivia Station for Scavver's Delight quest. Mods up to date, no known conflict mods installed. Any help would be appreciated, buffout log attached.

I see a lot of mentions of backpacks of the commonwealth there (which on its own should be completely fine, I think it does add one to inside Olivia).
I think there was a tool to help decipher buffout crash logs. If I'm not mistaken, this?
 
Hi ! Yeah, i used the tool but it only found issues with Unofficial patch (not gonna deactivate that one) and Rifles Rebirth, which when deactivated does not change anything
 
I'm not very good at reading the Buffout log though I also noticed references to npcs like the Radroach, and inventory call and some TriShape(mesh node 'links'?)... if the Navmesh is 'broken' or some other data is 'confused'(as from different versions or archives or loose files are missing or cross-matched) this could also potentially cause a CTD.

It can't be a texture as there are no purple objects(won't cause a crash), and it can't be a missing mesh are there are no exclamation points(though I haven't tested this on FO4 as previous Bethesda games show that).

I've had CTDs in the past when looting creatures- though I don't have that now so I can't try and test it out, and didn't take time to isolate it in past tests so I know that's not very helpful.
 
This line concerns me:
Code:
[RSP+130 ] 0x1D77F50F900      (TESNPC*)
        File: ""
        Flags: 0x00000008
        Form ID: 0xFF032311
        Form Type: 45
        Full Name: "Radroach"
There is an issue where an incorrectly setup actor record will cause the game to spawn a radroach instead. I can't remember the details though you should be able to find this mentioned several times on reddit.

Install Better Console.
Enter the console command prid FF032311
Look at the bottom right for Last Changed. It may give you a clue to what mod is causing this.
You can try entering prid FF032311 + moveto player If this is the issue, you should CTD after entering this command.
You can try entering prid FF032311 + kill + disable Then entering Olivia. If it doesn't CTD, that is your issue.

I also see you have f4ee.dll. IIRC, that is LooksMenu. Something related my have introduced a corrupted mesh or texture. These will cause a CTD when the game tries to load them. You can try disabling mods that add/modify clothing and armor to see if the issue goes away.

The crash log also mentions Backpacks of the Commonwealth. You can try disabling it to see if that is the issue.

Thanks for the great information! I had this happen awhile back where instead of a pack of ghouls coming after me, most of them would be Radroaches- they wouldn't attack, just run up to me following me everywhere(maybe a cross-mix between ghoul AI/mesh/skeleton and creature AI/mesh/skeleton put them in a state with no 'attack' option).

The command returns an item not found for this ID :/
Also tried disabling Backpacks and clothing mods, nothing worked out so far

Thanks for the responses so far tho !
 
Also i already cleared Olivia once before the quest started. Is it possible this causes the issue? Is there any command to reset a zone ?

That I'm not sure- as usually when a quest is given for an area, the area will 'reset' adding back in enemies, loot, etc.,. cleaning up any corpes after a given amount of time. The only thing I can think of, other than the 'radroach' thing, is a corrupted /.nif/ or 'confused-mix-matched' data somewhere.

Is there a way to check for these corrupted files?
 
Is there any command or tool i could use to simply skip this quest?
In the "City Manager 2078 Holotape" that Jake should've handed you by that point, under Tools then Cheats there are options for "instantly finish the current 'main' SS2 quest" and "skip to a specific point in SS2's questline".
ALWAYS keep that holotape with you, it has multiple utilities buried in it
