Well re-enabling them and launching a few times without crashing seems to imply there was something going on there. Much less crashy now.

Sadly I don't run many programs to begin with specifically because I don't like background programs affecting performance. Though I did disable some of the startup videos/images, maybe the game is still trying to play them and when it can't it crashes. >_> I'll re-enable those and see if that helps.

Not sure if I solved it completely, but did find the PowerAmorAutopilot.esm (the power armor AI module mod) is causing conflicts and crashes.

Oki so ran into another problem. When I load the game I can sometimes load it and play it fine for a while. But other times, when I go to click anything for the main menu the game immediately does a CTD. Loading it again after that just gives a faster CTD. And I have no clue why it's doing this in a rather cyclical fashion where load the game once and it runs fine, load it up again and it crashes. T_T

UPDATE! In what amounts to a lot of confusion for me, the game still doesn't say it's using any mod/addon other than automatron, but most of the mods I installed are indeed working, save for certain ones like the one that's supposed to change character voice. EDIT: Seems it's because they did something with the DLC's archive that overrides the audio. Since I'm not willing to futz with that I guess I'll have normal char voice for now. :p

So had a sort of litany of problems and as I've solved one, another seems to take it's place. Originally, FO4 was simply crashing on launch. Even after uninstalling all the mods, deleting all the content, uninstalling the game and wiping all the saves, document, and appdata info on the game for a clean reinstall, it wouldn't even launch as a clean unmodded installation. I actually ended up wiping my PC today and changing the OS, which along with the subsequent driver updates seems to let the game run again. Problem I have now is that the mods are not showing up in the game. The official DLC shows up in the addons, but no mod I add myself or though NMM shows up even if it remains checked in NMM at launch. At first it seemed to be from an install bug where it wasn't loading the actual content into data, just empty folders, but even after reinstalling NMM again and running it on admin to fix that issue I still couldn't get the game to recognize the mods. The content is there, I have the esp and all the game data in the folders now where it belongs, I shuffled the load order and made sure I had the extra prerequisite content for the likes of the weaponsmith mod. Yet for some reason no matter what I do I can not get anything outside of the Automatron DLC to work. Texture replacers seem to work, but no matter which setup I've tried for archive invalidation it seems to have had no effect. Is there some problem/solution I'm missing?
