Thank you for the reply. I really do appreciate the help. I am familiar with the concept of disabling half the load order at a time, etc. but I was hoping to avoid that. I went back and tried disabling all "relevant objects" (mods) again to see what the log would show as Mousetick inquired/suggested. It shows the following:
"Possible relevant objects (8)
{
[ 9] TESObjectACTI(Name: `Catapult`, FormId: 0005A5FE, File: `Skyrim.esm`) ... etc, etc. attached.
0005A5FE is Editor ID: CWCatapult, Model: CivilWarCatapult01.nif inside Skyrim.esm: Clutter\CivilWar\Catapult\CivilWarCatapult01.nif...
That seems strange to me... I will get around to doing the 1/2 thing when I can find the time. I was also thinking of validating the files through steam but, I want to avoid the update. I could downgrade again but, I'm concerned it may create more problems just to solve one.
