Skyrim random CTD and never ending load times?

[Morrocookie]

HELP! In my Skyrim I have been experiencing a lot of crashes to desktop without any error messages or anything, especially in areas around Whiterun. In addition, some areas simply will not load and force me to close the games, for instance, Understone Keep in Markarth won't load, but every other location in Markarth will perfectly. I am using many mods as well as the RealVision ENB and a lot of .ini tweaks. In addition, I use the texture pack combiner.

Hopefully someone can help me, the game is almost unplayable and I was really looking forward to seeing it look nice after playing on the pitiful Xbox version's graphics. If anyone has used graphics mods or ENBs and have no trouble with them, please tell me how you accomplished this. If any of my mods are known to cause these issues please inform me so I can get rid of them.

First off.... That is a big load for your rig. And im pretty sure some of your mods are incombatible with others in the list. You should use one mod of the same type unless they say they are compatible together. Not sure that pure waters is compatible with water for instance. i could be wrong on that though. Also you should only use one waterdb.esp One includes the waves the other doesent. Try using boss if you dont already and wrye bash to help with compatibility issues. The long load times are due to the heavy load of mods i would guess. Tone it down and keep only those that you deem essential. that could go a long way. Hope this helps. Happy modding

Okay, I fixed most of the issues, but I still keep getting crashes after less than five minutes of playing. I've used Wrye Bash and BOSS and everything I could think of and nothing seems to work. Are there any mods in my list that are known to cause this?

[Namyquis]

Try getting rid of lanterns of skyrim i used to crash when using that along with landscape mods. also make sure when you install realistic lighting overhaul that the last option adaptive interiors is not ticked because you are using climates of tamrel. if that doesent work ill keep tryin.

I've disabled lanterns of skyrim plus a few quest mods that are just completely broken and cause CTDs when nearing the area (All the "fight the Thalmor" quests) and from the beginning hadn't chosen "adaptive interiors", the game seems much better after I fixed a few things. Though there are still crashes very often in the exterior worldspace every few minutes.
