Dragon Combat Overhaul - Can't load Main Menu

[Hentai-chan]

Ever since I installed DCO, I've been getting ILS on main menu for some reason. It's a shame because I was kind of excited for this mod. It was promising. What I mean by ILS on main menu is I get past Bethesda Logo, it loads main menu background and sits there. I wait, wait and wait but main menu never loads. It doesn't crash. It just loads infinitely. I think I may be trying to load too many script heavy mods but I wanted to ask anyway. Why do you think my Skyrim is just unable to load?

 

Here's my pulled right out of MO.

The only thing I can notice is the Dance of Death warning, to load AFTER Dragon combat Overhaul (that I failed to find in your mod list as DCO , I see a UltimateDragons). You use SKSE, have Skyrim updated?

[Hentai-chan]

I don't have it installed, currently. Even if I did, it would be not be active. I did try to load with DCO at the end of the load order which naturally means that it's after Dance of Death. Didn't work. My money is on script-heavy mods.

 

I just went to total amount of 145 plugins, though. Here's the updated load order.

NOTE: I don't have all of these mods active. Whatever plugin you see in the load order is the mod that is active. And I also merged some patches, fixes and small mods to save some space. Let me know if you need them as well.

 

As for load order, I let LOOT take care of it. There are some personal touches here and there but it's mostly LOOT. Let me if you need my changes highlighted or something.

[JRCosta]

The DCO warns to load Dance of Death after the DCO, so DCO should be higher. But that shouldn't be the cause of it. Could be a memory problem, mods installed (too many or incompatible) or a corrupted save, so let's try to narrow the problem.

 

- So without the DCO, you don't have Infinite Loading Screens, right?

- Do you clean your save game with some tools to remove uninstalled mod scripts?

- Did you tweaked the skyrim ini files recently?

- Can you install DCO and try to run it on the earliest save (or at least an old stable save) and see if the ILS also happen?

 

 

[Hentai-chan]

Loading DCO before DoD worked.

 

So without the DCO, you don't have Infinite Loading Screens, right?

 

No, I don't. Skyrim crashes during load if I am not in a solitary cell like Qasmoke but I already figured out FNIS and PCEA can actually be perpetrators for those. So no prob, there.

 

Can you install DCO and try to run it on the earliest save (or at least an old stable save) and see if the ILS also happen?

 

To clarify, ILS was on Main menu. Not when loading a save. I waited and waited and waited but the bloody main menu would just not load.

 

Do you clean your save game with some tools to remove uninstalled mod scripts?

 

In my SKSE.ini there is a "ClearInvalidRegistrations=1" line. Shouldn't that do remove uninstalled scripts automatically? And I also use ClearInvalidRegistration through console from time to time. So nothing out of the ordinary there.

 

 

Did you tweaked the skyrim ini files recently?

 

 

Unless I did it in my sleep, I don't believe I did.

 

Anyway, it was a load order issue. And it has been fixed. I'll stick with Ultimate Dragons for the moment because I heard that it has new attack animations for dragons. You don't get many of those. I have an option at least if I think UD is completely overpowered for me. But thanks anyway.

 

NOTE: DCO is Dragon Combat Overhaul and DoD is Dance of Death. Just in case I confused some people.

 

[JRCosta]

Load order

 

Great it works now, just mark this solved then.

 

Good luck!

[Hentai-chan]

Load before Dragon Combat Overhaul before Dance of Death.
