New vegas stuck at picture of Veteran Ranger at the beginning, nothing

[WalterREBoRN]

Title. I was installing some mods and now this happens. I can't press any buttons, but the game doesn't crash. It just stays at the picture of the ranger vet and doesn't load any text. I can't even access steam overlay for some odd reason. My only hope is to Ctrl-alt-delete to do anything. any ideas on how to fix this? my full list of mods (though it doesn't straight up crash anymore) and load order is:

 

FalloutNV.esm

(All currently available DLC, too lazy to list)

AWorldOfPain(Preview).esm

(I'm going to skip over all of my fluff mods because I want to save time)

QHHFollowers.esp

WMXUE-CouriersStash.esp

WMXUE.esp

*have all of the WMXUE patches disabled except for AWOP.esp and ModernWeapons.esp

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

EDIT: I've deactivated all my WMXUE files and everything is working.

This issue is normally caused by a plugin referencing a record in one of its masters that does not exist or is of an unexpected type. Outdated compatibility patches are the likely culprit.
