112 Maximum Mods, No Main Menu

[TheDrunkenMeditator]

For some reason, I can only load 112 active plugins in Skyrim. I have a total of 169 plugins installed, but if I activate any more than 112, the menu never appears. It works if I disable any active mods and activate others as long as it still stays at 112 or below. I have an alienware aurora desktop that can run Skyrim on Ultra quality and on my laptop, I can run well over 150 mods with no issues except those accompanying an old laptop.

Lack of a menu is usually caused by critical problems with mods, especially missing masters, severe conflicts between plugins, or corrupted plugin files. Try testing each plugin individually. If one of those critical problems is the cause, the no main menu bug will occur no matter how many plugins you have enabled or disabled.

LOOT says _pocketempirebuilder.esp and Eld_combinePotions.esp are both corrupt, but, running with pocket empire builder enabled still gets me the menu. It's only if i have any combination of more than 112 mods that the menu doesn't appear. I tried isolating any particular mods, and they're all fine. It only occurs if I have more than 112 mods. As soon as a 113th mod is enabled, no matter the size or compatibility possibilities, the menu refuses to show up.

[TheDrunkenMeditator]

I still can't get the menu to show up. Can anyone help me?

1. Legacy of the Dragonborn is really picky with what mods it is compatible with. I doubt very much that JK's Skyrim is compatible, but you may want to check on that.
2. Your Complete Crafting Overhaul has 2 mods it requires, and it requires them in a special order, which they aren't in.
3. One or more of your mods may require SkyUI to be installed, which it shows it is not active. I would activate it and place it right after your .esms
4. The failing menu could be SKSE related. Make sure you've installed it correctly.

5. I would reinstall the two corrupt files just incase. Make sure that the files themselves have data in it. If they don't, they are usually like 1kb and aren't working. If that's the case, try manually downloading.

Hopefully one or more of these suggestions help you. Also, test it out on a new game to make sure it isn't just your old save.

OP already chose to ignore this advice. But this advice is 100% correct. Except missing master. If you had missing master youd never make it to the main menu.

 

conflicts, bad patches, bad plugins, can all cause the no menu issue. Awhile back i had a patch for an older version of immersive horses.....that mismatched patch caused a no main menu. Something simple as that.

 

You need to test plugins one by one to find the culprit

I'm telling you, I have checked them. I haven't played skyrim for months because of this issue. Heck, I can completely flip which mods I have installed and still get the menu. Top 112 only, menu. Bottom 112 only, menu. Random 112, menu. Any selection of 112 plus any single mod, no menu. It's not this issue. If it was, I would have solved it a long time ago. The plug-ins are fine. And I actually do have skyui and skse installed. For some reason though, they don't want to work right.

1. I'll definitely check to see if that's the issue. Neither LOOT nor NMM told me anything negative about it. Though it did have a lot of files it over wrote from other mods.

2. I don't know which or which order, but I always LOOT sort and it's worked fine in the past.

3. It got sorted to the middle by LOOT so it was past the top 112 that I can have installed. I'm trying to play with all those mods active.

4. If I remember correctly, I think I did reinstall SKSE. I'll probably do it again.

5. I know pocket empire builder actually works. I can get it to run. Idk about eld_combine potions.

6. Thanks for all of your help. Hopefully I can get this working now and play online with it.
