Hello all, I'm hoping to get a little clarity. I started downloading everything I needed in my spare time back in May to do this guide. SKSE updated so I reacquired mods that needed updating, as I installed them, if it came up, i grabbed the new files. I installed this once, did the guide to completion and would get CTD right at main menu. I troubleshot a bit and came to the fact that nothing worked, so I scorched earthed the whole thing and redid it from scratch and took a much more methodical approach. This time round it worked. Until it didn't. I resolved the issue with Aventus that USSEP was throwing that may have been the cause of my previous issue apparently, and was able to load in and create a character. I picked a path in alternate start, got to the point of going outside, and instant CTD. Thought maybe something might be bugged there, loaded again and picked the vanilla skyrim path of going to Helgen. Got through the cave and went outside, instant CTD. Stupidly, I didn't do Stunning Statues of Skyrim correctly with creating and copying the snow_only files. I did do the testing of using coc to go to a couple statues, which did work, so I thought I was fine before fixing it. Now that I rectified that, I loaded in, and instant CTD before main menu fully loads. So I redid my LOD. CTD again before main menu. I decided to check BethINI and make sure I had everything correct, which I did have to adjust a couple values. I redid the entire finishing line again, still CTD just before main menu loads. I excluded all finishing line stuff beyond using LOOT and SSEEDit to sort masters, same deal. When I say it crashes before the main menu loads, the Dragon symbol will be spinning, and the loading circle in the lower right is working, but before text appears it CTD. I'm at a loss here, I know I'm close and just missing something simple. Anyone have any ideas?
