A while back, I used to play Skyrim a lot, I would always use a fair amount of mods, but have no idea how to list them. I re-did my entire mod list and used LOOT or organise it, I have recently gone through LOOT and corrected every error. The only one remaining is one telling me to delete an .esm as I already have it, instead I just disabled it. 

 

A few notes about how and when my game freezes:

 

-Only when I'm outside, it has never crashed indoors.

-It used to crash sometimes in combat, but I guessed that was due to an animation error, I tweaked my list little bit ago and it hasnt crashed in combat for about a week.

-Mainly when I'm running, it has done it when I'm sprinting. It crashed today when running up a mountain and when runnig to dawnstar. It has done while I was riding my horse near whiterun.

 

-When my game freezes, the audio and music will still play, but the screen will not change.

-The only way I can get out of it, is to CTRL + Alt + Delete and sign out of windows. Task Manager doesn't work.

 

*It should also be noted that sometimes I can have play sessions where I can play for hours with no freezes, but others it will freeze in minutes, and sometimes it will freeze about an hour in to the session.

* LOOT recommends I clean some mods, but I read that some mods are supposed to be dirty, and that if I don't know what I'm doing I should avoid cleaning them.

I also clicked the 'Copy Content' button on LOOT, I don't really understand it but it may be helpful to someone who does.

Hello, the mods LOOT is saying needs to be cleaned most likely do need to be cleaned.  As a "feel good" you can check the mod description page and see if the author left any messages about not cleaning it specifically.  Make sure to check the post section of the mod as authors leave info there too.  If none are present follow LOOT's suggestion and clean the mod with xedit.

 

I have not seen this done before but why are you using so many weather mods?  I usually only see people using one at the most as with myself.  IDK, if they are compatible with each other or not.  You would need to check for conflicts in xedit.

 

Is this an actual list of the plugins LO?  If so you have placement issues with the mod ELFX and it's counterparts.  ELFX Exteriors is before the ELFX mod it works with.  I also see ELE which I believe requires patches to work with ELFX that I do not see present.

 

You would be best served, after addressing the above mentioned, performing conflict resolution on your LO using xedit.  Only then will you know for sure that all conflicts have been addressed.  You can find instruction for doing that and more in the xEdit Tome guide online.  Good luck
