Bare_elf ... DOTTA DS2 Run Through 2 Part 3

"Notes: If I try to reach Lavenord from the falls the game crashes right after the Point where you find the Stelae of Life. However if I enter Lavenord from the direction of West Bay I do not have a problem and I can walk back toward Ellennu past the point where the Stelae of Life is found. Turn around and head back to Lavenord and the game will crash about 50% if the time. Not sure why I have this problem but if anyone else encounters it please say something."

I have never had a crash in this area. Had a recent crash, while using a teleporter? Other than that, can't remember any, other than one, in an intense battle at Eastport. Checked the region out with the seige editor, but there was nothing. The editor didn't even make a log file.

I have saved and quit in this area at least a hundred times by now, cleared out at least 3/4 of the Haku, so they don't respawn, with no problems. Even while building the region, there were no crashs.

There are no triggers or effects in this area that could cause it. There is however a great deal of activity , with Haku fighting Wild boars, and a little further, Chimps fighting with other critters. Whatever is causing it will be just beyond the distant view, where the map is loading.

If it's critters fighting, you would think that would straighten out after approaching the area from the direction where it didn't crash. A crash only half the time does however suggest to me some sort of npc activity.

I really have little experience with DS1, DS2 Mods, so have no idea if anything could be going on there, with character behavior, etc.

What helps me try to figure things out are screenshots.
