It's simply the way things are now days. They all think they've got us by the short & curly's, and most people seem used to it. MS shoves Win. 10 down our throat & whatever D/L's they want, corporations cheat consumers any way they can. I guess I got lucky on this update b/c when I switched to SKSE64 2.0.9 all worked fine. All 10 items in MCM work as before & no problemo.

I never needed to clean masters after a CC update, & not this one either. I must be missing something here. Do you verify for some reason after update?

Not sure if you're saying you get these error warnings and the mods seem to be working ok, or if they're not. I get a warning when game starts that Skyui not detected and Wearable Lanterns will not work right from MCM, even though it does. I ported the mod from LE & as long as it works OK, I'm happy. Did Racemenu work OK? As for Potema, this is from LE mod, "Potema fix;" ( I used it once in SE with no problem) This bug only arises when you have installed a mesh replacer for 'YarlClothes03' that uses BBP, TBBP or HDT. The CTD happens because the 'skeleton' that the Potema NPC uses, doesn't support the use of "Physics".

You have so many mods I'm not familiar with, ( and certainly not looking up ) I probably shouldn't even comment, but... looking at your list, I just don't get it. You have mods like Eternal Sunshine & also some like Vivid Weathers - Extended snow? If you didn't do a work-around for wearable lanterns you'll need to do that. Did you clean your masters? Make a leveled lists bashed patch?

You've several mods I'm not familiar with but unless you used a work-around for Simply Knock, ( like the one Elys left in the posts section of the mod page ) that's enough to make a crash at logo.

You could look in xedit and see what weapons Magic World adds or changes. Don't know what Phenderix magic world may change from Magic World, but I would think twice before adding a mod that changes an existing mod mid game.

So I should run Steam and then SKSE - thanks a lot. You could, or just back out before game fully opens & then start again. So I'm guessing punsforlife got SKSE64 fixed.

No, SKSE64 2.0.8 works fine with 1.5.50.0.8 That's happening b/c steam isn't open when you start the game. You'll notice steam does that short update when you first start up but when you exit game & start again does not.

Surprised to hear loot put USSEP anywhere other than directly under the Dragonborne esm., b/c Loot has never put it anywhere else for me. Anyway, always make sure that's where it's at per the USSEP mod page. Best of luck!

I would move USSEP up under trhe Dragonborne esm , putting it above RSchildren & see if it makes a difference. If still no change, I guess it would be time to start disabling a handful of most likely mods at a time until they get their clothes back on. There are some fixes to put clothes on RSChildren in the posts of RS, but they're pretty involved. I think I used RSC in oldrim once but found "The Kids Are Alright" & never went back.

When you added RS Children you also needed to change the Skaalkidcoat to the RS Skaalkidcoat patch. Probably not the main problem though. This link may be helpful; https://www.scribd.com/mobile/doc/235574282/Guide-to-Make-a-Patch-for-Solving-Conflicts The first part of this link shows how to use xedit to check for conflicts. The USEEP patch should be under the Dragonborn esm., so did you sort l/o with Loot?

I'm still in a fairly early learning curve but I think that's just info, like voice type & head part data. Did you give QuagaarWarrior's suggestion a shot?

I see you're a long time Nexus member so I hate to ask, but did you do what you could to make your game stable, like; clean masters, bashed patch?

Everything in my load order is ok with the latest updates from Beth & SKSE64 except Simply Knock which will give instant crash. Oops, should have put this in mod talk.

No idea what may have happend when you tried out mods, but adding an armor mod that has underwear, like Emfy Cleric, & then adding that underwear to whatever armor you're using might be an easy solution. Also some armor mods take off a players underwear. If you have underwear when armor is removed, that's what's happening.

I have no idea what's causing your problem but can say SKSE64 2.0.7 works fine with the latest SkyUI so it is your installation. It'd be a pain but I'd just start again from scratch and move steam & skyrim out of x86.

Why not do as you were advised & move steam & games out of x86? Just delete the new shortcut and, https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=7418-YUBN-8129 then make a new shortcut.

Google it. It's always best to try and find the answer yourself.

You really should have put your steam & games somewhere other than program files x86, usually in c drive in a folder you name games. If you R click & drop to administrator privileges you may be able to start, providing you followed the read me in the SKSE D/L.

I use the same homes as Strawbqwerty. The only downside to them is the pool undressing system. Any NPC in the home that is not 100% vanilla will often be walking around the house unclothed. Lakeview is a good home if you add Hearthfire attacks disabled. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/1936

Myself. All NPC's have too many annoying habits.

Thanks for the updates and congratulations on this first and one of a kind win. You really do deserve an achievement award. I think I'll try it next go round & see if it drives me the rest of the way crazy. Now you'll have to think up a new challenge for yourself.

I'm really surprised you made it passed Alduin at the TOTW with only a few tries. ( didn't really think you could.) The DR shout doesn't keep him down long & then it's fire & brimstone while waiting for the cooldown period to wear off. I have no idea of what Alduin may be like though, since he's at lvl one as well. Skuldafn, (no followers) will be tough but I'm thinking you'll find a way. Do you have to go down to novice level sometimes?

Yeah, GO OMB! Love to see more edits updated as you progress. May try this myself sometime.

If you can get through the main quest this way it's nothing less than astounding. Some things I wonder about though, like can you be judged worthy to enter Sovngarde by shouting? Never tried anything but swinging a sword myself. Killing Alduin will take many followers with good weapons. Are all weapons in your game vanilla? Most enemies tend to concentrate on the DB and almost ignore followers... talk about dying a thousand deaths!
