Well, there are a lot of possibilities but you are not giving any more information than your load order.

 

1 - Do you have anti-virus software running in the background ? Are there other applications running in the background ?

2 - Did you clean your game files via FO4Edit ?

3 - Did you sort you load order via LOOT ?

4 - Did you read ever mod description and apply what the authors are suggesting regarding compatibility and load order ?

5 - Did you start your game with all the mods installed already or did you start the game and after you got out of the vault, you installed all the mods ?

6 - Did you play at least ( without mods ) 2-3 hours to find out if it is your video card or computer the cause for your CTD's ?

7 - What kind of rig do you have ? How much video memory ? Do you have a SSD or regular hard drive ?

8 - Did you install the Bethesda Texture package when you installed your game from Steam ?

9 - If you used LOOT, have you manually moved some mods within your load order ?

10- Is this your first time modding this game ?

 

Give us the answer and we may have some answers for you. It is not just about what mods you installed. There is a lot of homework to do before start installing mods and btw, I do not even recognize some mods that you have in your load order. I can see that you have a lot of texture mods. I would not !! Come back with the answers.

Long shot here, but do you play with a bluetooth controller by any chance?

@ jakethemeansnake ....

 

... you did answer "yes" to question # 5 and that is not right. You should start your game without mods and after you got out of the vault and meet with your robot, then do a hard save and after you can install your mods. It has been recommended to at least play for a couple of hours without mods to find out if everything is running as it should. At this point, because you started your game with all the mods installed, you do not know if the cause of your CTD's are the mods or your computer.

 

You have the same rig that I have and probably is not your computer, but it is always a very good practice to start the game without mods first and after a while, install 10, see what happens and install another 10 and so forth so it is easier to find out which mod is causing the trouble.

 

Also, are you matching your video card resolution with your monitor resolution ? This is important because otherwise, it will cause problem. My monitor is 2560x1440 and that is the same resolution I am using in my video game settings.

 

If this is your first time playing a game with mods in PC, I recommend to start playing with good practice, meaning that, for the sake of yourself, you should not install dozens of mods blindly and I recommend not to rely absolutely on the quality of your rig . Fallout 4 engine is not that friendly and not matter how good your rig is, you will have fps drops and CTD's, especially if you are not following ( from the very beginning of your game ) my suggestions that are not mine, but suggestions provided by the most experienced players out there, including mod authors.

 

Don't make the same mistake that I made. I started with 120 mods my very first time and I had to restart a new game from scratch because I was suffering a lot of fps drops and CTD's. I have been learning the hard way and I am still learning. I have started this game several times because of the same reason. A couple of days ago I started another game and this time I only have 80 mods and they are mods that I know they are not causing any issue except one of them that is very heavy ( War of the Commonwealth ) and this one, is expected that will cause CTD's sometimes. But this mod is essential to me.

 

If this is your first time playing Fallout 4, it is understandable that you want to try a lot of mods and find out which ones you like the most or which ones you want to play with depending on your play style. You will probably would have to try some, restart the game again and so forth till you define which ones do you like and which ones are not causing any trouble. You probably would not be able to find out on your first play through, so just do not get frustrated by having problem because that is the way to learn.

 

I do recommend you to start playing with mods that have been downloaded and endorsed the most by the community. Just to let you know, I do not have any texture mod because they apply globally and if you add dozens of mods and btw, heavy mods like WOTC, True Storms and texture/graphic mods, etc, you will have a lot of fps drops and probably CTD's. The point is that you need to find out ( by trying - there is not other way - ) which mods you want to have and once you find out, star a new game ( they way I suggested ) and star modding your game and once you set your load order, do not touch it at all. I do recommend to watch a video tutorial that you can find in the War of the Commonwealth mod located in the middle of the description. This video will teach you somethings that are very important to know before you start modding your game.

 

If you have any question, please let me know. I am not an expert at all but I have been learning some things that may help you. Whatever I know, I'll be happy to let you know it as well. Watch the video and you will learn that adding mods to this game is something not to be taken lightly. Knowledge is half of the battle won! Go for bro.

 

Cheers
