Mod setup gets messed up without me changing anything?

[poopy69poopy]

Everything works when I'm playing one night.. then I get on another time without changing anything. Start a new playthrough and like 2 or 3 things are broken. Not asking for specific solutions.. just wondering what's up with that in general? I will say also I've either done a bad mis click without noticing before or vortex disabled a mod on its own couple times.

Dunno how you play, or what mods you have installed.

With Devious Devices it's obligatory on a new game, that you save and exit to desktop, then resume to give the MCM the needed kick in the shins to get rolling. I would not be surprised if this is the case with other mods too.

If things are messed up when you resume after some days, you might want to check the Papyrus Log, to get an idea what's wrong.

 

Vortex does not disable mods or esp's on its own - but why would you even touch it for playing? You need that for modding, but nothing else.

 

Just thinking - do you start with SKSE running? If not, no wonder things aren't working.

> Did you start Skyrim with the Skyrim Launcher? Don't do that! Skyrim Launcher will mess up your LO (resorts mods and can even deactivate some, moves deactivated esp at the end of your LO).

> Skyrim installed from Steam? Always make sure Steam runs in the background before starting Skyrim or Skyrim Launcher gets started first. Steam doesn't need to be online for playing Skyrim.

 

Everything else would need more detailed information.
