Persistent issue of Skyrim AE freezing before loading main menu (mod list contains NSFW mods)

[vnh]

Skyrim SE ver. 1.6.1170.0

SKSE64 ver 2.2.6

Did a clean install of Skyrim AE yesterday and deleted all my saves, following GamerPoets' Youtube guide (done this about 4-5 times now) to try and solve this issue that has been hounding me for the last week or so.
 

Unfortunately the issue persists and the game started freezing before the main menu again today after modding a bit and starting a new save doing the classic Helgen start. The issue, frustratingly enough, doesn't begin until I turn my PC off and on again (Steam issue?). Skyrim will load just fine off and on after installing my mods until then.

Some of my mods in the list are listed as disabled as I was trying to diagnose if certain mods might be causing the freezing issue. However, even after disabling all mods in MO2 and trying to launch the vanilla game through Steam, the issue still persisted until I did another clean install.

I use LOOT within MO2 to sort my load order and use FNIS within MO2 to load animations. I have Skyrim AE as well as MO2 and LOOT installed on my SSD, although I made sure MO2 and LOOT are located outside of the SteamLibrary folder. I launch the game using SKSE within MO2.

The "Oblivion and Morrowind Soundtrack" mod as well as the "ECHOs vampire armors for UNP" haven't been updated for Skyrim SE so maybe thats whats causing it, although comments on their respective Nexus pages said they worked fine for SE and both those mods were also installed for weeks before the now daily, freezing issue started happening (I have recently added Morrowind's soundtrack to Skyrim SE's Music folder though).

The "Flower Girls SE" mod has "Amorous Adventures FG" and the "Female Cicero Patch" merged into it, which is not visible from the mod list attached. I wonder if Amorous Adventures in particular is conflicting with the Serana Dialogue Addon, although I do have the "SDA Patch Hub" with the necessary patch for Amorous Adventures.

I did notice the issue began around the time I installed "Trueblood Serana"(version B) together with the "Serana Dialogue Addon" + "SDA Patch Hub", so maybe "Trueblood Serana" is conflicting with "ECHOs vampire armors for UNP" or something.

Would really appreciate some assistance as I can't for the life of me seem to pinpoint what is causing these persistent freezes. I can only imagine it might be "Trueblood Serana" conflicting with ECHOs vampire armors for UNP or/and perhaps the "Serana Dialogue Addon conflicting with Amorous Adventures as mentioned.

Edit: Think I figured out the issue. Pretty sure it was ECHOs vampire armors for UNP conflicting with Trueblood Serana. Did a clean install without the vampire armor mod and so far so good.

You should probably list the exact version of SE that you are using (different versions can have their own peculiar problems), and you might get better, faster responses if you post this on the Skyrim SE forum.  Go to 'Game Communities' under 'Browse' at the top of the page, scroll down/search for Skyrim.  Select any/all forums that you wish to post in.  Good luck!

I'm using the latest version, but thanks for the info. I'll try posting it there as well.
