Very Specific Crash Issue
Hi, so I'm a fair few hours into a playthrough, and I've gotten stuck because of a game crash that has seemingly come out of nowhere, and only occurs in one location as far as I can tell.

I've finished Peragus, Telos, Nar Shardaa, Dantooine and the first parts of Dxun and Onderon with no crashes. Decided to do Korriban while waiting for Kavar's message. I got through the caves, the canyon and the entirety of the academy with no issues as usual, but strangely, when I activate the terminal in the torture room, and try to open the front door to the academy (after finding Vash), the game just goes black and closes. I really don't understand. All cutscenes have been fine before now, even the movies which I've left turned on.

The only new mods I've installed since my last playthrough were some clothing mods, but I've had those items equipped since I got to Telos, and installed them before I even started. My previous playthroughs also gave me no trouble with crashes whatsoever. I can't think of any academy related mods I have, not even the dustil restored mod. Sion spawned in fine when I entered, and so did the assassins, so it's not their models or anything. The clothing mods I have don't affect them. I have Atton and Disciple with me, both Jedi, if that matters.

I really don't want to abandon this playthrough, but I don't seem to be able to find a fix that works? I've tried windowed mode, lower res and settings, lowering and raising frame rate, vsync on and off, frame buffer on and off, soft shadows on and off, xp compatability mode, setting different affinities in task manager, ect ect.

I just don't know what to do, and I'd really love some help or suggestions if possible.
