This is a really weird CTD that I just started getting today. Whenever I fight an NPC or enemy with a Steel Longsword, the game will crash after a random amount of time, but always before the enemy dies. This CTD does not occur when using fists or other weapons, and it seems to have effected all past save games as well. This CTD problem started when I entered the Sump of Misery in the Kvatch Oblivion Gate. I disabled all mods except for DLCs and Unofficial Patches and the CTD still occurs. I have narrowed it down to Oblivion Reloaded after disabling the .esp and removing the .dll and .ini files from the OBSE/Plugins folder, as the crash no longer occurs, although there is an odd animation error where the sword swing animation will randomly not play but i will still land hits. I have used LOOT to create a proper load order, but this resolved nothing. Any help that you could give would be appreciated, as I quite like Oblivion Reloaded and would like to keep using it. Below is the Mod order before CTD was fixed.

If there is any known issue with Oblivion Reloaded and this kind of CTD please let me know. Thank you! Edit: After an amazing revelation I realized that the CTD was occuring becuase the sword was breaking mid fight. If there is some kind of conflict between Oblivion Reloaded and weapons breaking and if there is a workaround, please let me know!
