Hi everyone. I'm not new to modding, but I'm still a little bit new to Fallout 4 and I guess it might handle things a bit differently than Skyrim did. I've edited my .ini to allow modding and all that, I was successfully modding for about a month before this happened. Prior to this my game was very stable as I have a pretty good system. I downloaded a few new mods, I thought they were fairly simple standalone armor/weapon mods, and one difficulty one (Create your own difficulty) and one UI (Pleasant UI). I try to open my game through F4SE and I CTD before the loading screen. I ran LOOT with no errors and re-verified the integrity of my game cache, everything appears to be in order. I'm at the end of my technical rope, but I looked in my Docs folder for my logs and found these. I saw that the mod "Place Everywhere" appeared in one of the logs so I uninstalled, re-ran LOOT and still get a CTD. Logs spoiler'd below, I'd appreciate some help interpreting them. f4ee.log: f4se.log: f4se_loader.log: f4se_steam_loader.log: place_plugin.log (Generated before uninstalling "Place Everywhere") Load order: F4SE version 2.8, running Fallout 4 update 1.8 Thanks so much!

Thanks I'll give that a look! I'm not new to modding, just out of the loop for about 9 months while I finished college. I'm familiar with LOOT and even started getting familiar with TES5Edit over the past several days. I do run the game through SKSE, and I have USLEEP installed under my mods tab but for some reason it isn't showing up in my plugins. Another odd thing happened as I was playing/troubleshooting today. I experienced a CTD and I checked NMM and my Skyrim.esm and Update.esm had become unchecked and I had to re verify the integrity of my game cache via Steam. Thank you very much! You explain the optimization a lot better than my previous source (I was having difficulty finding the UseOSAllocators line in the CrashFixPlugin.ini. I even did a ctrl+F search and turned up nothing and thats why I stopped going down that avenue and reinstalled my game. If that line still isn't there should I add it to the .ini file? Thanks again.

Hello, I recently built a new PC so I could run Skyrim better. I spent about $1,400 on it (Already had the peripherals) but Skyrim still seems a little unstable for my tastes, and I'll still CTD fairly often (several times each hour). I am playing on Ultra resolution (what the launcher detected from my video card by default... after buying a 1070 I would expect nothing less). My PC specs: GTX 1070 Intel i5 6400 16 GB of ram My mod load order: I've looked around for some optimization/stability tutorials but most seem to be made years ago when Skyrim was a newer game and GTX 780s+ were considered higher end. I would greatly appreciate any insight or recommendations, thank you!

Thanks. I will try that out. Regardless of how this works out, I've learned a lesson. I have too many mods. I've been digging around the net for guides on how to clean-slate Skyrim, but I'm no computer wiz. So far my best guide is this one, but I'm still a little timid to start deleting files from my Data folder. Has anyone used this guide before and if so, is it okay to go by? Right now my plan is to use Wyrebash to teach myself how to use it and learn more about modding, then do a clean-slate and re-install to start my mod collection over. Any red herrings that I need to be wary of?

Hi guys, So I just update SKSE a few days ago and I was able to play Skyrim with it (big deal for me, my little faithful laptop can run some pretty big stuff with some coaxing and love.) So by now I have about 60-80 mods running and it's having a bad impact on my FPS and gameplay. Not to mention my laptop is starting to overheat. So I decide it's time for a downgrade. I get rid of about a third to a half of my mods. Nothing huge, but just some armor replacers and standalones I don't use anymore. Now Skyrim won't launch and immediately CTD after the "Bethesda" screen when loading. It won't launch from SKSE, Steam, or from the .esp file in my Skyrim folder. The mods I've been messing with lately are Dual Sheath Redux and Animation Tweaks and Fixes. I ran CCleaner to see if it was being caused by any old version of mods conflicting, but it's still happening. I would forever be grateful for some assistance. Thanks in advance.

It is a new problem, and I have installed a few mods recently, but none change character skin textures. I downloaded the arena mod in Windhelm most recently.

Hey guys, I'm having a graphical problem with Skyrim. My character's skin turns jet black, but the face, hands, feet, and underclothes are still there. As far as I can tell, the minor textures of the abs are still showing up, but the color is jet black. I'm wearing modded armor, but this isn't the issue as it occurs even when I'm not wearing any armor at all. I tried reloading and switching armors back and forth, but nothing has worked. Please help, this is my favorite character... Thanks.

Hi everyone. I'm encountering a bug that is fixed in the 1.4 patch. But the catch is, I've been updating on Steam and I'm pretty sure that I'm past the 1.4 patch, but the issue is still here (weapon displays and mannequins in homes are bugging out) I'm not sure if I'm not at 1.4 or if I'm past 1.4. How do I tell which update I'm running, and will installing a past update mess up my game? Thanks everyone.

Hi. I'm having some issues logging into the Mod Manager. There are some semi-game breaking mods that I really don't feel like running anymore. I try to log into the NMM, and it gives me an error saying that I can't log in unless I'm logged into the nexus first. So I log into the nexus and nothing changes. I tried going into my c drive to delete the mods, but I must not have had all of the deleted because it still runs. Please help.

Hello all, I have only abou 33 hours of skyrim playtime. I recently started to play it again but at the black and fog game screen (load game new game quit ect...) the screen is there but no buttons are there. I recently downloaded moonpath to elsweyr and I can't wait to play it. But could this mod have something to do with my game glitch? I have a radeon hd 6750 graphics card I think. I know it is at least the 4200 required to play. Thank you

Hello chaps, NMM won't download any new mods for me. I just get a message saying "This file does not exist" where the name of the mod should be. Thank you for your assistance.

Same issue with me. I can login to The Nexus and The Forums, but not the NMM. How do we update without being able to login?

So I use dual wielding quite a bit. But the power attack trajectory puzzled me in 1st person so I went to 3rd and I did it and it turns out that your character spins. Cool! Right? Wrong. The camera doesn't. I think it would be awesome, amazing, epic, outstanding, superb, ect. if someone made a mod that fixes the camera to your head so when you spin the camera does a 360 spin, same for rolling. Anyone who has played Mirrors Edge knows exactly what look I'm talking about. Just something for you modding geniuses to think about :P

I tried to install mods manually with winrar, but I could never extract them. I would get a warning pop-up saying that the files were damaged and could not be opened. BUT there is a check mark next to the file name ;)

Hello all, This might not be the right place for this (knowing my luck there is ALREADY a place for this that I overlooked) but I have a question. I got the Mod Manager, and it makes downloading a snap! Pretty awesome. I downloaded an armor re-texture (turning leather into Ranger-eque armor) and I activated it in the Mod Manager and I thought everything would be fine and dandy. But when I started the game (on a previous save file)... nothing had changed. Just a simple question: Do you have to start a new file (or story, if you will) to put your activated mods into action or I am just not doing something that is totally obvious? Thank you for assistance.
