I have no clue whether this is a hardware issue, Vortex of Skyrim but if it is Vortex this is probably the best place to ask right? Detailed Description of the Problem: So I started going over my mod list recently and I have this weird problem that I have never seen before. I have all my mods installed and enabled, sorted that whole thing. All extensions have been run and are working. Along with updating the mods I also installed the new SKSE version for AE (preliminary). And now I'm having this problem where everything seems to be installed properly, and is enabled but it just doesn't take effect in game. For an example I use Arthmoor's 'Live another Life' mod, but even with it installed and enabled I get the default Helgen start. And the same goes for all my other mods, nothing seems to 'activate' (for the lack of a better term). I also checked the load order in the Bethesda mods section in the main menu and none of the mods are enabled. So i tried enabling them there to see what would happen and the game just crashed to desktop. And for each time I tried to activate the mods it seemed to be different plugins each time that caused it to crash. The first time it was "Lore weapon expansion - Goldbrand", followed by: "YOT - SWIFT". So I tried to only enable my absolute core plugins (Alternate start, LotD, Unofficial patch, that kind of thing) and enabling them worked fine. But when I tried to start a new character it just loaded endlessly. I just left it and it went uninterrupted for a solid hour with no change. I tried verifying the game files which didn't do anything, so I tried to reinstall the game which also did nothing. So I started to google on the issue and found nothing that actually fit the problem I was having. So I decided to write this post to see if anyone has encountered this before or has any idea what could be causing this (because I am completely stumped). I did ask this question (albeit in a bit more of a TLDR format) in Heavy Burns' discord but all I got out of that was that I should use MO2 instead. I have been thinking of completely removing Vortex, all mods and Skyrim completely and do a fresh install on another drive, but I have hesitated a bit with that since just writing down the mods would take several hours, not to mention actually downloading them. One thing I did note is that after I updated Skyrim to version '1.6.342.0.8' all my previous saves got corrupted. Going as far back as 2016 to a playthrough that didn't have anything installed other than the base game and the DLCs. But that was the only weird or unusual thing that I noticed really, but any help, suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. TLDR: Everything seems to be installed properly and seems to be working in Vortex (Is enabled as mods and plugins) but the mods does not take effect in game and everything seems to be running vanilla with a few random tweaks here or there that has nothing to do with the mods. I have not found anything on Google and I'm completely stumped so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
