saves crash game on Load!

[Zekral4214]

so im completely new to posting threads for troubleshooting. usually if i have an issue i search for fixes and figure it out but this time there is too much i dont understand. i have put alot of time in skyrim and honestly have im sure made alot of mistakes with load order and getting rid of mods/adding mods part way through the game. however i have been stubborn about not starting over because i dont want to play through all the stories again. so here is my issue:

 

all of a sudden my saves wont Load. im not talking all of them just ones after a certain point. ive tried multiple times to play through save and Load and they all are unusable after this one save. in checking my saves ive noticed that after this save they've jumped from 50 mb to over 100 mb. so it may be a bloating issue but that furthers the problem. in all the posts i read it seems like each time i read a solution the next post says why thats a terrible idea.

 

if i could get help with that, thatd be great. i dont know if im posting this right or if im in the right place so if im not let me know please.

also hears my mods in the order they show:

All manual install. it was before I knew about the installer

sorry about how long it is.

Can I just get a knew data folder and reinstall everything?

Any advice on uninstalling or anything I could get that might help?

All manual install even if your reasonably clued up can still leave to a bit of a mess when it comes to overwrites and accidentally missing files when trying to uninstall. I'd hands down recommend using Mod Organiser as that will help you not having to have all your Mods in the Data folder and greatly help with understanding what mods you have are overwriting others. There are good guides like with Gopher on youtube that should help one get to grips with it. Beyond I'd make sure that your load order is at least put through Loot

https://loot.github.io/

.

 

Personally and there are much better people on the forums than me at troubleshooting but given a lot here is manually installed I'd get MO up and running, your mods installed with that, clear up the Data folder back to vanilla, or if your not sure what that should look like just get rid of everything and verify with steam with will re-download the vanilla files, run your load order through with Loot and then see if you can start a new game, get in, travel around a bit, save and then try and load it. Trying to use saves where mods have been added or taken away (and so on) can work but when it comes to troubleshooting its just asking for extra trouble that won't light your way.

 

Beyond this I highly recommend the crash fixes from meh321

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/72725/?

and then enboost from Boris

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/38649/?

Both of these are invaluable for heavily modded games.

 

Phase one though I would get Mod Organiser and get your mods installed with that whilst then deleting the manual installs, troubleshooting with a Manual installation of mods is probably going to be hella messy (as potentially much more experienced helpers may agree)

thanks ill try your advice. if that doesnt work after everything else ive tried im resigned to just start from scratch. i apreciate the response.

In addition to Gavrebel already said: You may try "Continue game no crash": http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/78557/? BTW, I'm not sponsored by the mod author or anything - it's just a great, very helpful tool... :cool:

 

Looking at the size of your save games, especially the instant increase from 50 to 100 MB, I'm afraid you may indeed have some bloating issue. 50 MB much, but still a reasonable size.100 MB is quite extreme. For comparison: The saves of my long time "main character" (save number above 1000, around 400 hours played) in a heavily modded game (300+ esps with merges) were about 40 MB. OFC you got large mods like Falskaar and Moonpath (which I didn't have at that time), but 100 MB really seems a lot.

 

BTW, did you try starting a new game? If so, are you having issues with a new game, too?
