To quote an American comedian from the Bush era "I'd criticize your president, but I don't know who the f*** he is."
Canada's like one of those serial killers before they go psycho. You know, the one that "was always so quiet, and just kept to himself." Which reminds me, we need to pay better attention to our northern border. :P

I remember stumbling across a mod that made the old women actually have old faces, (which they don't if you install mods like better females by Bella, cbbe, etc.). It's downright creepy hearing an old-lady voice coming out of a sexy young lass.
-
Also, have you used the saveini console command at some point recently? if so, that creates an ini file that overrides your regular ini files. If that's the case, just google saveini to find how to remove it. (I'd tell you, but it's much easier for you to read the same info I got than trying to understand my explanation. Plus, I'm lazy and don't like typing what I could just point you to an external source for).

Try the general stores mod and any of the mods that use it. Then go to the GS storage cistern and put all your gems in whatever container you want them to get sorted into. You can't look at them that way, but at least it won't make your camge crash all the time.
-
If you absolutely must continue with that save, use the setstage console command to advance to the next stage of the quest.

I mostly use visual mods for NPC's, but here are the ones I like. Unfortunately all but the first 5 only affect females, so if you want to do a male, sorry, I gots nothing.
Apachii Sky Hair (this one actually does have some stuff for guys, and even a section of stuff only for guys)
Skyjubs invisible helmets (no point spending all that work to make a nice face if you can't see it because it's hidden behind a helmet)
More Hair colors
No more blocky faces
xp32 new animation package
Caliente Body Big Bottom Edition (just search for CBBE)
Better Females by Bella (face mod)
Coverwomen (an alternate to better females)
Covereyes (more beautiful eyes)
numenume female eyebrows
The Eyes of Beauty (my preferred eye enhancer)
I discovered a lot of those simply because they were requirements for the various eye-candy custom NPC's I added.

Your best bet is to disable mods until you find the culprit. If you don't want to mess around with disabling them one at a time (and who does, really?), you can use the divide and conquer method:
DO NOT SAVE during this process, as any save you make will very likely be corrupted by mismatching mod id's.
Disable half the mods:
If the problem goes away, re-enable half of them.
If the problem doesn't go away re-enable them all and disable the other half.
You've now narrowed down the possibilities by half.
Repeat this process, cutting the possibilities in half until you find the culprit.
Once you've found the culprit, follow the uninstallation instructions on it's homepage.

Okay, I found the problem, and it turns out to be an incomplete xml header. I omitted the xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation section (as the one guide I could find said that might be optional). The full xml header should actually be:
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://qconsulting.ca/fo3/ModConfig5.0.xsd">
Hope this helps anybody else out there having install script problems.

Try getting rid of the Backslashes at the end of all of the folder names.
No luck, I'm afraid. Still get the exact same error.
-
Apparently it is possible to point to an individual file. Here's the line from a mod that keeps all it's esp's together in a single folder:
<file source="esp\Remodeled Armor.esp" destination="Remodeled Armor.esp"/>
I've also discovered an additional itemdescriptor type: Required. Plugins of this type are selected by default and cannot be deselected.

I keep getting the error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" when NMM tries to run my custom install script.
I'm pretty sure I've broken some rule in my install script but I've no idea what.
Here's the install script I'm trying to create.

"User User on the forum wall, who is the greatest modder of them all?" (mod-themed version of Snow White ensues)
-
I think either NMM or skyrim itself support a maximum of 100 Mods installed (with .esp's in the data folder, or entries in NMM"s config file).
-
I'd strongly suggest using a mod manager until ... well, until you find a mod can only be installed manually (thos're fairly rare, though).
In the mods portion of the nexus, click the "mod manager" link at the top of the page to download Nexus Mod Manager, the most widely supported (here on the nexus, at least) manager.

One solution is to try installing the "yslda alternative" mod which makes ysolda actually run Belethor's shop as if she were Belethor.
Alternatively, try revisiting the shop after 31 in-game days (all resettable cells will have reset in that time period). You can rest for 24 hours 31 times, install a mod to let you wait for 31 days in a single shot, or just forget about Belethor for a while.
I do know Belethor dies as part of the Civil War optional quest, so I doubt this is a glitch or bug.

There was a mod recently, it was in the hotfiles. It was called something like "Real Dragon Riding" and you still couldn't control the dragon, but it added a lot more options for dragon riding and Bend Will in the game. I was searching for it, and now I can't seem to find it.
did it maybe get renamed to "command dragon"?
-
There was an mod with flyable, unkillable horse mount...
I don't know if this is the one you're thinking of, but it matches you description.

This sort of experience is rather common when the user (or a program the user runs) modifies system settings or services without understanding which ones are used by their particular setup and installed programs. I doubt the modder had any malicious intentions. I suspect their only real fault was assuming that everybody else was using the same basic setup they had, and didn't have programs with special requirements.
I can't tell you how much time I've spent trying to make something work after I'd changed or disable a key service, and I'm a certified computer tech (A+, MCSA) and know what I'm doing. That's why I didn't install that mod, even though I was sorely tempted. I've burned my hands in that fire way too many times.

IN your skyrim/data folder, there is a file called categorized_favorites_menu_config_guide.html that describes all the settings in categorized favorites config files, including several that control the size of the lists and thus the menu itself.
-
Do you mean they're not showing up in the plugins list (the .esp and .esm files) or not showing as installed in the list of downloaded mods?
If it's the second one, that's most likely because you didn't copy over NMM's installlog.xml file which it uses to track which mods are installed, and which were merely downloaded.
-
Two options. In Wrye, get your load order right one more time, then right click on one of the column headers, select load, then save list. Next time it screws up your list, go to that same menu, but select load list.
Another possibility is that you edited Bash's ini files to do somethign odd and have simply forgotten about that. (A non-uncommon occurrence for those of us that like tweaking config files).

Just wanted to say thanks for keeping us up to date with this kind of thing. It makes users feel more like part of a communal effort, and less like a commodity or a leech.
As for the new plans, I think its a great idea. I especially like the idea of side-skin ads. I tried unblocking ads here for a while, but the placement of them felt like they were covering up the column headers on many pages (they really weren't, it just felt that way because they're mashed in so tight around the column headers). I'm glad I'll be able to support the site again even though I can't afford a membership right now.

Stumbled across a mod for this while trying to fix another problem.
It's called "Better MessageBox Controls", and you can find it at http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/28170
-
The mod may not actually have a .esm (master) or .esp (plugin) file. Some texture mods and graphical tweaks only modify the games textures or other files so don't need a .esp/esm file. It wouldn't do any good anyway since the key changes would be outside the plugin or master file.
I've noticed this with a few mods I've installed myself, so it's not just a glitch with that mod or your system.

I recall the "winter is coming" mod added some cold-weather themed cloaks. I don't know that they'd do anything for your survival.
