Shroud Hearth Barrow Script Fix LE



Description (Small details that make big differences)

My port of this important fix made by ferrari365.

I actually compiled the script with the last Creation Kit Legendary Edition. The resulting LE compiled script has different size than the SE version, so something changed. Then I tested it ingame quite a bit, and it's working as intended. I made the port for my game, and now I'm sharing it. All credits goes to ferrari365 of course.

Description from the original mod: Towards the end of the Shroud Hearth Barrow dungeon, you will come across a trap which locks the door in front and the one you just entered from and then wakes up four Draugr to fight you. This is done by a script that closes and then swaps the existing doors with locked versions.

The problem with this is that there is a very small chance that this script can get stuck in a loop - if one of the doors gets opened again before the locked version of the door can get swapped in. The most common way for this to happen is if the door you entered from gets shut closed on a follower and they immediately open it back up again. Chances are, you will miss when that happened and now the script is stuck in your save file.

This mod is a slight tweak to the script that prevents that from happening by closing the door again if one of them happens to get opened before the script can continue. If you're one of the five people this script is stuck for, you can either return to the dungeon and close both doors again or you can download the optional file, which will do that for you.

How to check if the script is stuck?

Download ReSaver and open your save file in it. In the left pane expand the "Active Scripts" folder and check if you see a dunShroudHearthCloseAndDisableRefs folder there. If you do and this save file was not made when you are currently being ambushed by the trap, then the script is stuck.

The Optional ESP will terminate the script from your save if it's already stuck. Should be relatively safe to uninstall, and it might be a good idea to clean your save with ReSaver.
