I also launch the game with the script extender shortcut on my desktop. Several times the game received a stealth update & the script extender would throw a game version mismatch error. This is why Steam stays locked down in Offline Mode. The majority of SKSE64-dependent mods utilize meh321's Address Library to combat Bethesda's tinkering with the game executable but there are still a few that do not.

The issue lies with the Steam Client randomly checking for updates after a system reboot if not set to Offline Mode. If Steam is online, it will randomly check for updates to the Client, install the Steam Client update & prompt all games in the Steam Library to check for updates & apply said updates regardless of the setting applied in Steam. This issue began after Valve thought it a "genius" move to remove the Never Keep This Game Up to Date option from the game Properties menu via a Steam Client update several years back. I've had it happen to me on several occasions which is why Steam is always locked in Offline Mode so a stealth game update doesn't break my script extenders.

The day Micro$oft locks Bethesda games behind the Micro$oft Store is the day I cease playing Bethesda games period. Folks are going to simply have to start speaking with their wallets. Look at the utter DISASTER that was Windows Live... Windows Live was so bad it ended up being discontinued & relegated to the dustbins of history. If it weren't for mods, Bethesda games wouldn't be remotely relevant a year or two after release. Micro$oft had best tread carefully in this regard...

All these corporate buyouts/mergers serve a singular purpose - the total MONOPOLIZATION of various industries which in turn drives down overall product quality while driving up the price of various goods/services. There was a reason the late Teddy Roosevelt was adamantly against corporate buyouts/mergers here Stateside folks. I fear the Micro$oft buyout of Bethesda will water down the quality of future releases, including TES6. It would not surprise me in the least to see TES6 get locked behind the Micro$oft Store & Bethesda's crappy game launcher... Take a good look at what happened to WoW after Activision got their GREEDY PAWS on Blizzard. Blizzard Entertainment hasn't been the same since Activision's buyout/merger. The same can be said for Bioware after their buyout/merger with EA...

In response to post #91953468. Don't forget all those DATA OVERAGE CHARGES one is likely to incur depending on one's ISP either... In addition, you need to set your Steam to OFFLINE MODE in order to totally avoid those stealth updates. If you don't, the game will auto-update itself after a system reboot since Steam will check for a client update if not set to Offline Mode which in turn prompts any games in your Steam Library to check for updates & apply said updates without your knowledge/permission...

No pun/disrespect intended towards console users but with Game Pass, one does not actually own the game in question. If one fails to renew their yearly subscription to Game Pass, one will lose access to all those so-called "free games" they downloaded to their console's HDD/SSD. The same applies to PS Plus users. One is far better off buying the actual game vs obtaining it via Game Pass/PS Plus. I actually prefer physical media vs digital downloads/recordings anyway. With a physical copy, I actually OWN the game/music/movie in question & can watch/play/listen to it as many times as I wish without having to pay those nagging subscription fees. Not only that but the overall sound/video quality of physical media is vastly superior vs digital downloads/recordings anyway. I still have my CDs/Blu-rays for this very reason & will not pay a subscription fee just to watch/play a game/movie or listen to my favorite music. Total RIPOFF. Another thing to be concerned with are all those DATA OVERAGE CHARGES one is likely to incur depending upon the ISP. Streaming games/movies/videogames eats up A TON OF DATA. This is especially true for 4K/8K video streaming. Many ISPs here Stateside have monthly data caps & charge a King's ransom for going over one's monthly data allotment. Others will simply throttle one's internet speeds to the point where streaming is impossible depending on the device used. Either way, physical media is vastly superior & will save one a TON OF $$$$$$ in the long run...

Yes but I strongly recommend grabbing Skyrim 3D Trees & Plants since the Billboards are designed specifically for it... ff7legend

You should post your video in HDT SMP's Posts section in the hopes that it will garner the attention of aers so he can fix it... If it's of any consolation, my system specs are as follows: Core i9-7980XE Extreme Series CPU (18 cores/36 threads @ 3.0 GHz apiece) 128GB Corsair Dominator RAM 2666MHz EVGA RTX 2080 Ti Despite all that power, I have the very same issue as you do when using hairstyles from dint999's Hair Pack, not KS Hairdos SMP... ff7legend

Try the ones from Skyrim 3D Trees & Plants. Skyrim 3D Trees & Plants is one of the best mods out there. It's compressed in BC7 format & won't crash the game... ff7legend

From what someone told me on dint999's Discord server, it's an issue related to memory. SMP hairs are extremely demanding on system resources & it could be a simple as the system running out of memory to load the character model. Despite my having an extremely robust system, dint999's Hair Pack cases my character to blink in/out of existence as shown in your video. ff7legend

Your issue derives from this: "TEXTURES\terrain\LODGen\Skyrim.esm\TreePineForestSnow02_0005C071.dds" That my friend is an indicator of an incompatible texture being installed into your game. Specifically, whatever LOD mod you have installed is what's causing the game to crash on approach to Traitor's Post. Removing the LOD mod will more than likely fix your CTD issue. Hope that helps... ff7legend

I don't have the issue when using a KS Hairdos SMP hairstyle. However, I do have this issue when using a hairstyle from dint999's Hair Pack. It's a very strange issue... ff7legend

The game loads so long as d3d11.dll isn't present within my Skyrim Special Edition folder for the record. If d3d11.dll is present, the game will not load after Continue/Load/New Game are selected from the main menu. CTD is always the end result upon any attempt to load the game with d3d11.dll present. ff7legend

Just tried it with only the ENB Binaries installed... The result? CTD on Continue/Load/New Game. Like I said, ENB will not work alongside HDT SMP on my system... Have no clue as to why & yes, I have ENB added as an exception to my antivirus program. ff7legend

These are options on the Skyrim SE main menu. Whenever I have ENB & HDT SMP running together, the game will not load. It CTDs (crash to desktop) whenever any of these options are selected on the main menu screen... If ENB is removed, the game loads just fine. ff7legend

I was using ENB Binaries 0.448 & Ominous ENB by firemanaf... As previously stated, removing all ENB files from my Skyrim Special Edition folder fixes the issue. I can't even use PrivateProfileRedirector or SSE Display Tweaks for the same reason.... CTD on Continue/Load/New Game if any of these are installed alongside HDT SMP. ff7legend

As the title implies, I'm having issues with ENB crashing my game on Continue/Load/New Game when running it alongside HDT SMP. If I remove ENB, the CTDs go away. My Skyrim SE is up to date (1.5.97) as is SKSE64 (2.0.19). I also use CBBE 3BA Lite body & KS Hairdos SMP. Does anyone have any ideas as to why ENB would crash the game when running it alongside HDT SMP? ff7legend

Are you using dint999's Hair Pack by chance? If so, that's what causes the issue... I had that same issue when using any hairstyle from dint999's Hair Pack. Switching to a KS Hairdos SMP hairstyle fixed the issue for me. ff7legend

My issue may be fixed... Crossing my fingers. ff7legend

Yes. Tried that option as well. Same result... ff7legend

I have to rerun FNIS after each session in Vortex. Each time I install a mod, it scans for external changes. The pop-up shows FNIS as being changed. I then hit Save Change. Mind you I'm in the middle of a total rebuild of Skyrim SE so I've yet to start a playthrough. The game CTDs after selecting New Game. A rerun of FNIS from my taskbar fixes this issue & allows my game to load after New Game is selected. This is how I know Vortex is bungling my FNIS install after each session... ff7legend

I even have Visual Studio C++ 2019 installed, which is REQUIRED for certain mods on the Nexus to even run properly... ff7legend

Yes it does. I have all the .NET Framework updates installed as far as I know. ff7legend

I don't use Windows 10. I'm using Windows 7. I do have a brand new copy of Windows 10 but have not installed it since I'm not a fan of that OS's interface. Not a fan of forced updates either since some of those forced updates have bricked some folks' machines... ff7legend

I don't see that option anywhere in Windows Defender... ff7legend
