Skyrim is an action-based video game published by Bethesda Softworks. In the Elder Scrolls series, it is the fifth installment, which is available for PlayStation 3, Microsoft Windows, and Xbox 360. Skyrim is a huge success but it has also encountered several technical glitches that have confused gamers.

Some of these problems include extreme lagging in PCs. Let us discuss how you can solve the problem if you are a Skyrim player.

Solution 1

From now it will be using only vanilla bodymeshes. Because my main goal was and still - make it lore-friendly and not ruin skyrim atmosphere. For those who sees it for the first time here's a youtube link on how it works: Skyrim Mod - Modular Clothing System And here is a link on mod itself: Modular Clothing System - 1.0.0 - Non-Nude.

The first solution requires visiting the Documents folder. Once you have opened this folder, you will spot the My Games folder. Double-click this folder and you will come across various folders including Skyrim. Open the Skyrim folder and then click the SkyrimPrefs file.

Once this file has been opened, use the Control + F shortcut keys combination to enable the search bar. Next, type Gamepad in the search bar and click Find Next. You will find GamepadEnable=1. Replace 1 with 0 and then click the Find Next button twice until you come across GamepadRumble=1. Again, change the 1 it to 0. Now save the settings, and click OK. Hopefully, the lagging issue will be resolved, if not, then move ahead to the next solution.

The second solution involves changing the power settings. To do this, visit the Control Panel and navigate to the Power Options section. Now click Create a power plan on the extreme left.

A new window will now pop-up, offering several power plans.

Script cleaners are for when updating mods, NOT to fix broken/corrupted saves or to 'clean' saves after a mod or mods is disabled/uninstalled. 'Skyrim bakes script data to save file. There is no such thing as a clean save, when mod is removed. 'Clean save' is for mod updates only. This includes work done with Save Script Cleaner.

Select High performance, provide a name to your plan and click Next.

Click the Put the computer to sleep option, and select Never for both On battery and Plugged in drop-down menus. Click Create to save this plan.

Close the window and launch the game.

The third solution to fix Skyrim lags requires visiting the Documents folder. Now open the My Games and you shall see the Skyrim folder. Open the Skyrim folder and then double-click the SkyrimPrefs.ini file. Now add up iPresentInterval=0 to the bottom of the display section.

Next, make use of the Crimson’s Frame Target Control to limit the game to 60. In most cases, this will solve the lag issue in Skyrim as most of the time the lag issue is due to the ultra-frames required.

Solution 4

If the above-mentioned tweaks did not work, try using ST Cleaner. It often happens that the lags occur in games due to junk files. ST Cleaner is the perfect tool for getting rid of junk files with ease.

Visit the ST Cleaner official website and download it for Windows. Install the program and then launch it. Click Scan and ST Cleaner will launch a junk data scan.

Additionally, if you wish to be specific with the scan, you can search for web, software, system and social and multimedia related junk files.

Once the scan is over, ST Cleaner will present a list of the junk files, which you can delete without any issue.

I recently made a Skyrim mod to fix an annoying bug with Serana, one of the Dawnguard DLC’s characters. She’s a rather complex entity, using her own AI to help quests in Dawnguard manipulate her follower status and “lock” her to the player when needed. Unfortunately, this AI also clashes with mods like Extensible Follower Framework, which enable you to have more than one follower at a time. Skyrim was coded with the assumption that the player would only have one follower at a time. Because of this, Serana, unlike most NPCs in the game, will basically tell you to go fuck yourself if you ask her to come with you when you already have a follower. My mod fixes this by having a plugin remove the problematic dialogue entries.

However, there’s another problem: Sometimes, Serana’s AI decides to override her follower status and will force her to walk to wherever her “home” is. Even if forced to become a follower again, she will continue to walk home instead of following you. To fix this, I made a plugin in EFF that connects to her AI and tells her to become a follower. It also translates EFF commands (follow, wait, relax, etc.) to the appropriate AI commands, so the AI is always synchronized with her stock follower behavior.

Unfortunately, in v0.0.1 of my mod, I broke the script and it left a dead copy of itself in saves, which can cause crashes and other nasty behaviour. I am told I am pretty good at save cleaning, so I will leave you with this guide on how to clean your saves.

Skyrim uses a game engine called Gamebryo that is probably more than a decade old, starting with the release of Morrowind in 2002. Unfortunately, it hasn’t aged well, and it appears that the developers at Bethesda are afraid to touch the save-game system, since it hasn’t changed much and has numerous problems. Foremost among these problems is the fact that Gamebryo is completely and utterly useless when it comes to garbage collection (the process of cleaning up dead references and objects in an environment). The most common causes of crashes when loading a save in the engine is when it finds a broken reference or object and can’t fix it. Similarly, regular cleaning can result in better performance, as there won’t be as much flotsam floating around. The best way to fix this problem is to fix it yourself.
