Devious Devices Troubles please help

[ODell22d]

Hello,

 

So I have a problem I am installing all the mods I am wanting all from scratch on a new system and I have gotten to the point where I am putting in Devious Devices and of course I installed Assets then Integration and then Expansion however for some reason for the first time the mod is causing my game to freeze and crash... no CTD but frozen and wont budge...

 

Anyone have any ideas of how to fix this and if its a problem known?

 

Any time and help is much appreciated

 

Thanks

What devious device are you using? Version 5 is all inclusive, so you only need the requirements listed.

Please install from the getgo DD 5.1 it is the newest and has every thing in it Assets integration and so on

Not sure if it helps but I installed DD 5.1 the other day and for some reason it neglected to enable (and I think install) assets. Had to manually add it in there. It is in the package. Was using NMM community edition.

 

Should add, most of my previous saves are very unreliable with CTD's, so using a new game, without issue so far.

Well I downloaded the latest version and installed it... It is all inclusive but it changed nothing. Game still freezes any time I get near a few people a town etc... ??? My game does not crash or freeze without it installed so I'm pretty sure its DD causing it or conflicting maybe?

 

If anyone knows anything further its much appreciated

 

I'm tempted to start all over from scratch again there must be something wrong that I don't understand? Anyone with advice on if I should start over and maybe switch from LE to special edition? 

 

Which is better for having all the good mods?

DD on its own doesn't add anything to the game world (towns, wilderness, anywhere except one single bookcase in the College of Winterhold), so it's most unlikely that DD could be causing any cell load crashes or freezes just by its presence.

That leads me to believe that you're attempting to drop the DD mods into a running game, which is *never* a good idea. Essentially for no mod. The only really safe way to alter your mod list during a running game is to add new mods to its very end, but that doesn't work with .esm files of course. Starting a new game is really the only way you can safely figure out if there is a problem and if so, which mod is causing it. Again, I'm convinced it won't be DD on its own but it *could* be another mod that adds DD-wearing NPCs to the game world, if your game can't handle it (Papyrus too stressed out from other mods, not using Crash Fixes, ENBoost etc., or general performance issues).
