Using LOOT, I got no errors for my Skyrim mods.
Launched it.. Moment I stepped inside the first house after escaping the dragon, it crashes.

Uninstalling.. Rabble rabble..

Some non-Nexus or even mods within the Nexus aren't sorted properly by LOOT, you should try to learn manual sorting first and see if you can't get things working on your own. I had the same thing happen to me and all it took was moving a couple of .esps around.

LOOT is actually really bad

It was the opposite for me; Skyrim actually ran way worse after using BOSS

That's because LOOT is the newer version of BOSS that'll be updated. Loot is made by the same guys after all.

That's odd though, because most of the mods I used, did not clash with one another. I used:
Auto Unequip Ammo
Climates of Tamriel
Cloaks of Skyrim
Enhanced Blood Textures
Enhanced Light and FX
Immersive Animations
Immersive Armor
Immersive Weapons
ShowRaceMenu PreCachekiller
SMIM
Sounds of Skyrim - The Dungeons
Sounds of Skyrim - The Wilds
Underwear (Which I think are better male models, because I wanted my Orc to be sexy, veiny, and muscular, like a warrior would be).
Yo is Requiem any good?

it's summer, i've got a month and a half off before i go back to work
does Mod Organizer work with Oblivion? second question what's the name of that sweet Morrowind graphics overhaul, from what I can tell there's a couple of different ones but I seem to remember one being distinctly better

Yeah, I really liked it. It's one of my favorite gameplay overhauls because it really makes the game difficult. You're scrounging for awhile as a lowly adventurer and then slowly get more powerful, like older RPGs. It's good to see it got updated recently, I think the last version before that was from awhile ago.

LOOT isn't as good as everyone makes it out to be. Every time I use it, it looks like a tornado hit my load order. Doing it manually is honestly the safest way to do it.
Random crashes don't just mean that your load order is bad. The biggest cause for me was having Skyrim run out of RAM, since it's a 32-bit program. Mods like SMIM increase RAM usage. Sounds of Skyrim and Enhanced Blood Textures also used to be crash-happy mods, unless they have been fixed. Mods that add lots of scripts are also problematic if you have multiple such mods.
Also remember that Skyrim in its vanilla form is a buggy mess, too.

But then I see people with mods that allow prostitution and dragon dicks and horse penises where people hump each other, and shit like that
yet I cannot get a simplistic build of looking like a burly muscular orc that crushes people with big weapons, while making Skyrim look a LITTLE bit better!
[QUOTE=teddthebucfan;48229663]There's a character named Farkas in [I]A Christmas Story.[/I] There must be a connection. :vs:[/QUOTE]
Well in Skyrim it was clumsy ~symbolic~ naming because Farkas is Hungarian for wolf (My girlfriend's mother's maiden name is Farkas, which is kind of cool)

How was it clumsy? It just seems on the nose because of what the companions are.

Well, those prostitution and dragon dick and horse penis mods are made by an extra special kind of crazy modding community...
I can suggest a few simple things:
1. Remove all mods, enter crash-prone area and/or play for a while longer. If no crash, then add one mod and repeat.
2. Keep something like Resource Monitor open to check RAM usage while playing.
3. Look in the papyrus logs at My Documents/My Games/Log/Script. If they're not enabled, add this to My Documents/My Games/Skyrim/Skyrim.ini:
[quote][Papyrus]
fPostLoadUpdateTimeMS=500.0
bEnableLogging=1
bEnableTrace=1
bLoadDebugInformation=1[/quote]
4. Install the latest version of SKSE and enable its memory patch if you haven't already.
Currently streaming at with roughly 80 mods and Skreamizm tunage....

[QUOTE=TheTalon;48229106]As far as I can tell, it's pretty fuckin' active. No matter where I go there's people. Any dungeon, any fucking little Delve, there's people. Luckily there's no stealing of quest related shit like Beta[/QUOTE]
There is a quest for the Dominion side where you have to wait for the npc to summon the boss to finish the quest and players spend the entire day camping the npc and singing some knock of of eminem.
Those with perma and apocalypse spells who want a fun challenge should try out the build I am doing. It focuses on only nondirect combat, with the core being alchemy and illusion. Through perma you can get adhesive explosives in the alchemy tree, and its hilarious to use illusion to set up different bomb kills.
For example:
I will throw a bomb on the ground and put a phantom decoy on it, enemy sees phantom decoy and runs up to attack it, boom.
I will place a bomb on a living person and cast fury or scapegoat on them, making everyone in a radius attack them, nothing funnier then seeing a group of people run at a person then all go flying back from an explosion.
I will use a spell to view from the eyes of my enemies and find the one that walks by the strongest mob in the dungeon and then knock that person out and plant an explosive on them. Wake them back up and use the spell to view from their eyes again and wait for them to walk by the enemy and boom.
Enemies that I don't place the bomb on directly usually go flying and as they get up I will usually drop a bomb on one of them or some posion.
If enemies are charging me I will drop a bomb at my feet and usually switch places with a phantom I place in some higher area as a fail safe.
It is pretty funny to get creative with your bombs, I remember one time I used a scroll of raise zombie to bring a person I killed back to life as a follower, put a bomb on them and commanded them to run across the cavern into a group of enemies. Rinse and repeat.
I really recommend it. For extra challenge use no armor or alteration skin spells.

Better vision than me. I have a digital clock about 4 feet from my bed. The numbers are more than half the height of a cell phone. Still can't read that shit

It's intended to be a paint filter, IIRC. Not realism-gone-horribly-wrong in this case.
I remember seeing mockups of that ENB ages ago in this thread. Nice to see they actually got it finished, it'll make for some cool screenshots.

Papyrus logs are fucking useless. It's literally the equivalent of looking at vomit to try to figure out what gave you food positioning.
I have RLO installed and everything's peachy, except my FPS takes a nosediving shit when I look at excessive amounts of fire
I'm sure it can be fixed, but Googling "realistic lighting overhaul fire lag" isn't giving me any help. Ideas?
Well, a friend put the PS4 copy of ESO in my hand yesterday, more or less against my will, but as I have nothing else to do for the next few days, I'll guess I'll play it. Well, after I download all of the gigs. Nothing like MMOs and their updating habits.

Mounted combat was a deadly reflex feature for a bit I think but it got removed.

This mod was a bitch and a half to get working, had to make a new profile in mod organiser and disable almost all my mods but holy FUCK it was worth it.
This seriously gave skyrim the change it needed to be fresh again after my countless playthroughs. I haven't had this much fun with the game since it first came out.
