My patch was an esl so it was knocking it up my load order. I repatched it so I could bring it right down again and now it's working. Still no idea what the conflict is because I patched it the same as before and SEEdit wasn't showing any other conflicts but at least I know to check on my general stores as I go so if anything breaks it again I can bump it up

Okay good news and bad news: I found the culprit. It seems to be iNeed. It has basically no conflicts (those it has I'd patched to make sure that iNeed won) and worked on my last game before I switched to MO2 and moving it right to the bottom of my load order has not fixed the problem (though when I realised it was iNeed I also noticed I couldn't see it's MCM and that at least shows now that I've brought it down the load order). So now I need to work out why such a widely used mod is upset with my system

Gosh darn it all he has is VendorItemGold, the riverwood perk and one book which I know is working because it's a permanent fixture in Alvor's shop in case it didn't like being empty and he still crashed me out. What else could be affecting this? I don't have SkyPatcher or SPID so nothing should be being added outside of what I can see in xEdit afaik

I have been using a fresh game every time I test anything anyway so yes I still crash This didn't seem to help unfortunately. However, I just got an idea. Seeing as it seems like it's probably a stock issue, I'll start by clearing his shop and seeing if that works. If it does, I can slowly add items back into his shop to narrow down the problem. Will update if it works or not

Now you have your keyword category, right click on it and click 'Create New File...' to create a keyword. You can ctrl+click on it and a keyword from another mod and compare them to click and drag over any data if there is something similar to use as a template. You can also right click on any empty cell within your new keyword to add info to it. Now whatever mod has your keyword needs to be a master of the mod you are editing (or the same mod) for it to appear in the drop down. I find you'll often need to delete and re-add a cell or save and edit a different record before it appears.

xEdit adds masters fine for me, but it will bump the mod right up your list to make up for it

If you want things which only effect vampires or undead, you could draw upon Harkon's Sword, maybe? Or I think there are some cut vampire jewellery pieces that are still hanging around in the code, one of them is something about gargoyles?

Can you not template this on the companions fight when you first enter Jorrvaskr?

Crashing when I enter the UI. For shopkeepers it is when I ask what they have for sale, with Alvor/Gerdur I sit through the entire intro scene and then it goes kapoo the second they attempt to open their trade with me But I'm thinking if the problem was the UI itself I wouldn't be able to trade with anyone at all?

So I'm trying to work out what is causing most of my merchants and Alvor/Gerdur's starting gear trade to make my whole game crash. Merchants I know work are Hod and Faendar, which are ironically the only merchants who I have edited with mods (aside from adding a hairstyle). Merchants that definitely don't work are Lucan, Belethor and Arcadia. Arcadia does have a mod that adds a key to her attic, but I don't think this is an issue since it isn't only affecting her and also I'm sure I've used her shop since I installed that (though not 100% sure). I have a lot of mods installed and no idea when the problem started because nothing I installed or edited myself should be editing them and I have been testing what the mods actually do and apparently at no point did I trade with these merchants (it didn't help that Hod was working, who I traded with multiple times while testing the mods). Deactivating the last 20ish mods I installed di not fix the problem, and the 50/50 method won't work since it'll deactivate patches I have made and therefore cause other things to break. SSEEdit shows no mods editing any of the affected NPCs or their containers or level item lists (though I can't find the name of Gerdur/Alvor's starting item container) that I can see. I also couldn't see any quests or anything referencing the merchants or their containers that might be editing them. I tried enabling Papyrus logging but I don't really understand what I'm looking at and the last few entries are different on every log. I am using MO2 and everything is installed on a partitioned Z drive. Any idea what kind of mods I should be looking at or anywhere else to look in SSEEdit that might help me find the problem? Thanks --------------------------------------------------- External mod list (I'm still adding things, this is just where I have gotten to so far, also it doesn't show my ESLs I have made in SSEEdit, but I made them so I know that they haven't edited anything that might have caused this):

Thank you so much @xkkmEl! That was it. Seeing as they are crafting manuals I added VendorItemTool to them and bam, all buyable now!

I just saw you said CK. I am using SSEEdit, but your instructions sound basically the same as what I'd normally do, so I'm thinking that that shouldn't make a difference?

Like I said, I have successfully added Assorted Fabrics to his stock. I started with a levelled list flagged with Use All which has some Assorted Fabric and the books, but only the Fabric was showing up. I tried moving the fabric out of the list and into the chest by itself so the list was only books, in case I'd somehow misunderstood the Use All tag, but still the Assorted Fabrics show up and not the books. I know the books work because the Khajiit caravans are able to sell them. I know the basics of how to add items to merchant stock; I worked this out myself, but many Google searches I have made to try and fix the problem have also gone over this. My problem is a specific problem with Alvor/blacksmiths and the crafting manuals I have made. I cannot work out why the books do not show up in Alvor's shop. As I mentioned already, I did wonder if it was because he was a blacksmith, that any objects which weren't weapons/armours/materials might not show or are maybe being filtered out (this would make sense because the khajiit caravansa re general merchants and the assorted fabric is a crafting material so they both fit into the categories of their merchants), but when I tried changing things that mentioned being a blacksmith to their misc vendor version, I only broke him further. I am going to try adding one to a different blacksmith's inventory to see if it is just Alvor or if it is blacksmiths in general for now, but any help would be useful

Did you ever get this working? I've been trying to add some books to Alvor's stock for forever and nothing seems to work. I have successfully gotten the Khajiit caravans to sell one of the books and I can get Alvor to sell Assorted Fabrics, but the books aren't showing up in his stock. I thought maybe Alvor was flagged as a blacksmith and that was somehow blocking the books from showing, but I edited all of his relevant tags to match Belethor's since he is a general merchant and now Alvor sells nothing at all. Desperately seeking help/answers

I'm having a major issue trying to use the website. I get about three seconds of browsing before I am redirected to some shady website. The website is different every time and the back arrow often disappears, meaning I cannot return to the page I was on. I use Chrome and have adblock on, so I cannot see any adverts, there is just a redirect for no reason. I am experiencing this on every single page in the Skyrim Special Edition section. My boyfriend loaded Nexus mods on his computer and had exactly the same problem when trying to browse Red Dead Redemption 2 mods. He is also using Chrome and adblock. Neither of us experience this on any other website and I have never had any problems until recently. this problem started in the last few days or a weekish ago (I'm bad with time), but yeah it's been at least a few days and definitely less than a month. We live in Norfolk, England, though I'm not sure how this is relevant. I will look at a few mods now to give you some precise examples. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/search/ 29 May 2024 18:42, redirected to https://www.opera.com/computer/thanks?ni=eapgx&os=windows&utm_content=3154_026116c7-d603-48ca-9d48-00464e030de3&utm_source=PWNgames&utm_medium=pa&utm_campaign=PWN_GB_SVR_WEB_3154&utm_id=516d58ca6796483f9efd7f0c2c65a9d5&edition=std-2 which then force downloaded a .exe pretending to be an Opera installer https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/98493 29 May 2024 18:43 redirected to https://adblockology.com/extension.php?ij=cfogMb04jS6Ublt&_d=12&iq=32999_1473881079394707&im=j4scwg4ooo4ww4gs&il=og&io=1473881079394707 https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/92226 29 May 18:44 redirected to https://eu5qwt3o.beauty/offer/50?cid=31&imp=yloybzjbgzchr1717004650284 PLEASE help
