CTD on main menu, don't know what is causing it

[AzurElise]

I just installed quite a few mods but everytime I start the game it crashes before reaching the main menu. I don't really know what the problem is and I don't really know how to find out either. I used LOOT for my load order so I don't know if that's the issue or not. Any help would be appreciated. ^_^

There are a few things going on here.

 

First "I just installed quite a few mods"

 

Second "I used LOOT for my load order"

 

You should be following the advice shown here: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/652876-fallout-3-modding-and-you/

Read the mod description pages, they usually have a load order template or other advice on setting your load order.

 

You should not have any unused plugin files installed. If it is in the data file, it will be loaded into RAM.

 

If you are still confused, use B.O.S.S. to sort your load order. It can be downloaded here: http://boss-developers.github.io/

 

Remember, compatibility patches must load after the last plugin they are patching.
