If you have a problem caused by a recent version of NVSR: 1. Find your NVSR ini file. See the "Master" section at the top of it. Disable features from there (by changing ones to zeroes) until your problem goes away. If you can change all the ones to zeroes and your problem remains then likely NVSR was not at fault. Re-enable features that weren't the cause of your problem. 2. Post here. Describe the problem. Tell me which line in the "Master" section was associated with the problem. If you have used a previous version of NVSR that did not cause the problem, let me know about that, including which version it was.
and optionally, 3. If you're feeling industrious, try finding the section of the NVSR ini associated with the particular feature you're having trouble with (not all features have ini sections, but many do), and try adjusting its settings to see if they have any effect on your problem.
That will at least give me a fighting chance of figuring out what went wrong. Hopefully.
Kind of sad to see people bashing this mod now. This mod used to be great back in the day but obviously as time passed and new operating systems got released it became obsolete. Doesn't mean the mod is bad, it's just old.
i fully agree. and it's everywhere, especially on the older mods. there's always people in the comments complaining about what the mod description and/or pinned comments have already stated. nexus users are just notorious for not reading the descriptions/comments/other linked content deemed important by the author(s)
it's a test of sanity to be a mod creator for sure
This mod sucks at fixing game stuttering, and causes my game to crash every 10 minutes. No clue why people still use it considering it hasn't been updated since 2014 (Over 10 years ago now). Any OS above Windows 8 has big problems with this. Not worth anyone's time imo.
yeah, that's why the pinned comment(s) have warnings about this; it's had issues since 2020 at the earliest. so, if you see that kind of warning from mod authors or other users in general, don't expect the mod to work.
Download NVTF - New Vegas Tick Fix. Right click on the mod in Vortex and open it in File Manager. Open the .ini file.
Make sure under [Main] that "bModifyDirectXBehavior" is set to "bModifyDirectXBehavior = 1". Under [ThreadingTweaks] change the line "iTweakRCSafeGuard" to "iTweakRCSafeGuard = 2". Don't worry about it being "slightly less stable". This will simply mean that the game will run at a much-improved frame rate at the cost of this potentially causing a specific rare crash.
Thank you so so so much. Seems like there are still good people around, like you, who just want to help others. Finally I can play New Vegas again without it crashing every 10 minutes. <3
Fixed it all for me, Ive had stutters every time LOD (distant objects and terrain) had to load, this single line of text fixed it for me, ive been trying to fix that for over 50 hours xD
So I did this and Vortex was able to install the mod however before even having it installed I was running the game perfectly fine, buut upon loading into my last save the game is stuttering HARD like it starts smooth then just stutters to all hell and I genuinely have no idea whats causing it because it was working fine last night.. Figured this mod would fix it but alas it has not :( Not sure if this helps but xre cars gave me the error message stating that NVSR is not loaded even after installing.
You are a life saver. Been looking at trying to fix stability issues in TTW with cell loading, and nothing has worked except this fix. This seems to work for Windows 10 as well for anyone else looking for a solution.
VeryLastKiss's comment should be pinned for all the headache it saves.

WOW, its wayyyyy more stable now, thanks so much! although theres some minor hitching here and there and the charterer feels "Heavy" to move. i can get used to it though

If you are using this mod on Windows 10, you need to open sr_New_Vegas_Stutter_Remover.ini in notepad and change the line:
bHookLightCriticalSections = 1
to
bHookLightCriticalSections = 0
Otherwise you will crash every 10-15 minutes or during load screens.
1. Find your NVSR ini file. See the "Master" section at the top of it. Disable features from there (by changing ones to zeroes) until your problem goes away. If you can change all the ones to zeroes and your problem remains then likely NVSR was not at fault. Re-enable features that weren't the cause of your problem.
