CTD after splash screen BUT weird trigger steam launcher/NMM

Alright folks, wondering if anyone has any insight into an issue I am experiencing.

 

I had a completely stable game. Everything was peachy keen. Decided to delete a few saved games. I ran the Skyrim launcher in steam (JUST the launcher) so that my save game deletions would stick. I exited the steam launcher, and started my game up through SKSE via NMM like normal. Gets past the splash screen and blammo, CTD before the menu loads. Anyone have anything like this happen before?

Welp! Nevermind. Interesting development. It seems opening the steam launcher can have some effects on your mods. It turned on a mod that was dependent on something else turned off. I corrected that in NMM and now I am good. So, word to the wise for those with a similar issue! If you run the steam skyrim launcher, you may need to check your mods carefully after.

Skyrim's default launcher leaves mods in alphabetical order. There are 4 text files that Skyrim launchers of various sorts rely on to create "load order". You can access them in a normally hidden directory:

 

"C:\Users\MOTOSXORPIO\AppData\Local\Skyrim" --Where "MOTOSXORPIO" should reflect your own PC username.

 

You may find the following text files:

DLClist.txt <---should only list DLC plugins

loadorder.txt <---actual load order

plugins.txt <---should be full list of available plugins

SteamModList.txt <---Steam Workshop plugins

 

You can 1) back up your txts, 2) hold these txts open in notepad++ and disallow overwrites/reloads when prompted then resave them to keep load order. It should be recommended to never use any two mod manager/load order managers at any one given time. Good luck.
