Cannot Load Saves

One important thing.

 

DO NOT, under any circumstances, Install or Remove mods in the middle of a game with a character you care about.

Adding or removes mods from a game that has scripts etc baked into the save, will cause the index numbers of the mods to change, leaving all of the scripts baked into the save, as "orphaned" because they are still looking for the old mod with a specific prefix, and by adding and removing mods, you end up changing ALL of the prefixes of ALL the mods that load after the ones you removed ad/or added.

 

Have you looked at the save using FallrimTools and checked how many Unattached Instances you have in that save that crashes?

 

You could also be missing a master, if you happened to remove a mod

Yep, I cleaned the save as I mentioned in the first post. I've done nearly everything I can think of doing unfortunately :/

That's why I recommend mod removal in reverse order of installation for debugging serious "won't load at all" issues

 

Once the problem mod is identified (with subsequent cleaning afterwards) the other mods in the list of mods uninstalled during the debug can be re-added one at a time.

big time update, the problem is caused by outdoor textures, the problem was only occurring outside and in multiple locations. It's seemingly due to Skyrim 2020 Paralax unfortunately, but it's an old version so I'm hoping the new one will work properly, love the mod

 

edit: bingo! I've had paralax for over four months now, not sure why it only started acting up. I haven't updated it in over a month or so though, so my fault in the end, just like 99% of modding related issues honestly. Thanks all! I'll post one last time with an update on whether the new version works or not

the issue is completely solved now. old saves have been recovered and all! it was an old version of skyrim 2020 paralax, and uninstalling it/updating it both fixed my files, thanks all for the help!
