Bizzare Mod Organizer issue

[Kahnadah]

Hi all. I've got a mystifying problem with MO. I wanted to install M'rissi's Tails Of Troubles by KreaQ, but when i use MO it makes all the other mods I have installed disappear from the game. It's odd so I'll run through what happens.

 

Before I install the mod, everything works fine. All the mods I've installed work, and show up in-game.

Install M'rissi's Tails Of Troubles.

Go into Skyrim through MO, load my save game and I get an alert.

"This save relies on content that is no longer present. Some objects may no longer be available. Continue loading? Missing files:"

And it lists every mod and patch MO has installed.

 

I'm baffled. I cannot think what could be causing this. Any help or insight would be very much appreciated!

Did you, by any chance, load a different profile before running the game?

 

Also, does the right side pane lists your correct loar order (with all the mods you are supposed to be using checked)?

Hi. Nope, only one profile. Load order on the right was fine, everything checked.

This has killed my Skyrim. I had to delete everything, re-download it all from Steam, and try to find 100+ mods. Some (true eyes, true brows) aren't online anymore. I don't know what it's done or how, but every time I tried to install M'rissi's Tails Of Troubles, it killed my mod organizer and Skyrim! I doubt the mod author is to blame, and it's probably something unique to my install and laptop... :( >.<

Deleting everything and downloading it all again to solve your problem is like killing an ant with a cannon, but aiming the cannon at the wrong ant, since you already know what mod caused it.

 

Reinstalling Skyrim is undesirable because you would have to clean the master files again, assuming you have already done so initially (if you haven't, you should, as it prevents many mistakes involving mods).

 

You should try using Mod Organizer's function to backup and restore load orders to prevent problems like these.

 

Try asking this on the offending mod's page, you are more likely to get help there.

No, I had to delete and re-install because after removing the troublesome mod, my Skyrim was catastrophically broken. It wasn't salvageable in any way shape or form. I tried a lot before nuking it; Restoring with backups. Uninstalling then re-installing all my mods, tes5edit, loot, bodyslide and fnis. That didn't help. I verified the game cache through Steam, again no soap. I tried updating all my Skyrim-related programs (Steam, Skyrim, sound and graphics drivers, Windows) and that didn't help. I even did a system restore through Windows and that didn't fix it. I don't know how, but this mod was the straw that broke the modded Skyrim's back.

 

But, it's over now. I'll stay away from this mod (NOT saying anyone else should!) and move on.
