I agree with you that my former mods may not be compatible with patch. I would think the same thing but my mods don't seem to be related with what was patched. For instance none of my mods deal with kill moves or such like that or anything I read in patch notes. It still may be so I am making sure they are all uptodate. As I stated I did the skyrim.ini 4gig fix thingy and for whatever reason that seems to have greatly improved the game. I now only very rarely crash and since I have plenty of opportunity to save even if I do CTD getting back in is fairly quick and simple. I wish I had kept mine offline as I was fine with game before patch and the cinematic kill moves I am sure will be enjoyed by others but for me wasnt a necessary add on. In either case I love the game and will conquer this too.
