Help me solve issues with load order and crashes

[Zetheus]

First post on the forums here and i'm off to a great start with the usual "Help me!!!" first. Oh well, got to start somewhere I guess.

 

Anyways, to the point. I've been modding both Morrowind and Oblivion for a while, but with a load of crashes on Oblivion. They do not seem dependant on area, time or the NPCs present. Oddly enough, some of the crashes happen if i run too fast to another area, so i find myself walking a lot.

I find no reasonable explanation as to why it crashes. And yes, i crash upon exiting every single time. Damn annoying, but i can live with it.

 

So, I suspect that my load order is somewhat messed up, or mods not correctly installed. I did run BOSS, but it spits out nothing of use to me. I am not familiar with Wrye Bash, if it wants me to use it. I have done a complete archive validation and ran a cleaning program. Not sure if it did any good though. Did not clean the original files, patches or overhaul files.

 

Mod load order attached.

 

*cough* Help! *cough*

Wrye bash downloaded. But will not run.

I've replaced the ecconomy-plugin and ran BOSS again as well. I've also found a force unicode patch for Python, but that does not want to run. Modding is definetively not easy when it comes to Oblivion, that's for sure...

Make sure you're running the standalone version of Wrye Bash. The other one needs python installed as well.
