Uninstalling Bananasplit's Better Cities

[BiskmatarCatalyst]

Hello,

 

Just to preface, I generally know what I'm doing when it comes to these things, but this is just baffling me. Up until about an hour ago, I was running my game with Bananasplit's Better Cities (BBC). I had the Permenant Resouces and general resources OMODs enabled, and Better Cities itself had Open Cities and VWD attachments.

 

This is my load order courtesy of BOSS, with Better Cities taken out. I was loading it at the end of the order.

The trouble started when I went to uninstall it. As their readme said, I disabled the Open City option ingame before trying anything. Then, I unloaded the Better Cities Permenant Resources, Resouces, and general OMODs, assuming I was safe to uninstall. The game loaded to menu, I clicked past the "mods missing" warning, and the game crashed upon loading the save. I re-enabled everything to its previous state, and then tried progressively uninstalling each attachment. I disabled all wall guards, got rid of VWD, and got rid of the Open Cities esp itself.

 

As of right now, I have it down to no additions on Better Cities itself, and I don't even need the Resources or Permanent Resources OMOD for it to load successfully. As soon as BetterCities.esp is removed, the game goes down. I can't figure out why.

 

What am I missing? Thanks for any help in advance.

 

--Edit: I know that BOSS puts Sigil Stone Selector SSEE before its dependency. I hand-fix that.

Not sure if this will help, or if you've even done this or not, but make sure your not in a location added by BC, but try to place your character into an unaltered vanilla space and wait for 3-5 days, this clears the save of some cashed data and is a standard procedure. Now, perform the instructed uninstall procedure. Hope that helps, also it's very strange because recently I've been in circumstances that has had me toggling the use of BC and I never ran into problems, I didn't even disable it ingame first. Also, it might be a good idea to throw away all items BC might have added, although those should be removed automatically anyways.

 

I hope this helps.
