Hi everyone! Thanks Darth Mathias for your guide. It took me around 2 weeks to follow the SRLE guide and learn how to install eveything and get used to the different tools. Then I found your extended version, and as someone already said "we always want more". I don't know if my future contributions and feedback will be helpful, as I added some different followers and a few other mods I like. But a couple days ago, I thought my game was running fine: 3 hours playing flawlessly then a sudden CTD while running around Whiterun in the search of Sofia with my party of 6-7 followers (Feah, Cerwiden, Selene Kate, Recorder and Tocatta). Since then my save game is borked, getting CTDs when trying to load, even Save Tool stops functionning when opening the last saves... I remember having activated some mods options right before in MCM, but don't know why I get CTDs too even on a new game. So your theory about scripts being heavy (so many running, plus the fact I added some more) could be plausible. Maybe I have RAM issues on my side, other theory. Even with a big rig (GTX Titan 6 GB, i7 hexacore 6x 3.2GHz and 16 GB RAM) we all know that it's an "old" game made for DirectX 9 and as far as I run under Windows 10, it doesn't help much either. So I tried different tweaks on enbseries.ini, skyrim.ini, skyprefs.ini and skes.ini configuration files without any success... Even new games would CTD. I assume the game was too modded and I tried to remove some. I know Climates of Tamriel and Real Water Two need several optional mods and patches, so I just made a new profile choosing Purity instead as weather mod (less plugins to load). After one hour of DynDoLODding I finally was able to start a new game without crashing. But I had to keep Real Water Two cause it's necessary for the Skyrim Conflict Resolution mod to load (I don't know yet how to make my own corrective patches). I just hope it will not conflict with Purity. The result is quite nice (beautiful skies with sun flares); haven't tested for a long play though. Followin my "memory load" theory, I decided to move the "...\Mod Organizer\mods\" folder from my dedicated Steam HD to my main SSD (69 GB to copy!). I will check this evening if textures and distant objects load faster. Just a couple questions: With the settings generated by the little program spINI, it looks like very far objects don't appear, like mountains, landscapes. Aren't some default values a bit low? Instead of SRO I installed Tamriel Reloaded as base nice textures, then I put after it the new textures of Noble Skyrim Mod performance pack for overwritting. I don't know if it's a good choice (TR + NSM in place of SRO). Thanks for the good work everyone, I learn a lot while following this ongoing guide. I hope to finally get a stable modded game and eventually play past the starting quests: I'm also new to Skyrim, and want to experience a beautiful and immersive RPG from "scratch"! ^^
