Instant crash to desktop after logo:S

[Deleted3282815User]

Hello,

 

I recently removed all my mods and did a fresh install, readded all my mods I had and some more. Using both "manual" install nexus and steamworks.

 

When I start up my game I get the logo and when I should go to the main menu where I can load save files and continue my adventure it crashes. right after the logo the imperial sign is showed but when the options like Continue and Load should pop up it crashes.

The anoying part is that there is no error at all. Basicly killing out Google (I did some search found some basis CTD topics nothing the same as what I have.)

 

I made an list of all my mods if anyone maybe just happens to see a mod that could be causing this. (I dont expect anyone to look at the picture longer than 3 seconds.)

 

My qeustion(s) are:

-How do I get a sort of error message to show up? (Or any other way to find out what mod this is causing this, so I can simply remove it.)

-Maybe you see a mod or two that causes this in my list?

-Anything else about CTD is very much appreciated.

PS: I loaded the game and played for a minute or 2 before I added any mods. So this is mod related.

 

Thanks for reading!

First try verifying your game cache through Steam.

 

If that doesn't help, you're going to have to manually deactivate/uninstall mods until you get it narrowed down to one or two mods.

 

I'd start with any hook in programs like SKSE (and any mods that require it) or ENBseries, then move onto large overhauls like WiS. Move your Skyrim.ini and SkyrimPrefs.ini to a temporary location and start the game so it will create new ones to rule them out. Then go back to plugins, deactivating them in chunks and adding them back in one at a time once a removed chunk fixes the issue. If you find a particular mod that seems to be the culprit, try deactivating all other mods and running it by itself to see if it's that mod or a conflict between that mod and another one. If it turns out to be a conflict, reversing the load order of the mods in question may or may not help.

 

In the future, it's generally best to add mods in one at a time and then go test them in-game to ensure that they're functioning properly and not causing any issues. That way, when issues like this arise (and they will), you'll have a pretty good idea of where to start troubleshooting. It's also wise to backup your saves before adding mods that make major changes (Open Cities for example). This particular mod is known to break cities if you save your game with it activated and then uninstall it. Other mods may also save game breaking data into your character saves though the extent of "breakage" may or may not even be noticeable.

Okay I will start doing this. No ENBseries or SKSE mods, no open cities either. So its best to go from big mods to small?

 

 

EDIT:

-Is it possible that just the AMMOUNT of mods is doing this? and/or if thats possible is the ammount of mods I have high?

 

EDIT2:

-Okay I firsly unticked 50% of my mods, and it run.

Than I ticked a few more I though wouldt mattter, again it ran.

-I narrowed it down to having all mods ticked except all WiS Mods.

 

 

EDIT3:

 

WiS IV - Werewolf & Vampire.... ERROR

WiS IV - Races.esp ERROR

WiS IV - Perks for NPC.esp ERROR

WiS IV - Double arrow Damge.esp ERROR

WiS IV - AI & spells for NPC - ... ERROR

 

All other WIS IV files start up, but with any of these ticked it just crashes. But I dont know why at all? I mean double arrow damage, wtf....

 

Im going to check what im missing out on without those plugins, and consider not using them. If anyone knows wich mod this is conflicting with or why these are causing a CTD please say.

 

Thanks for all the help to!

 

EDIT4:

 

Final edit:D, Found out I had to move out the strings from their orginal folder, stupid mistake.
