How to monitor/test skyrim for ctds ?

[polaczek]

I am installing skyrim with mods for tenth time, I never got it to work stable before always ctds made me uninstall so I decided to try 1 more time. 

My question to You is how do I check if certain mods would give me crashes ?

My idea is to install couple mods, test it in game for a while if it's stable, install couple more, test it again, so on and so on until I get a stable setup. 

I am using mod organizer, cleaned master files and skse memory patch. 

I am looking for a quick efficient way to stress test the game to help me quickly build a stable setup.

If you are using MO why do you need to uninstall and reinstall? your skyrim should be clean

 

anyways, MO tell you in the top right corner if something is wrong, you will see the  "/ ! \ " thing if something isn't right or needs fixing it also pressing Sort will run LOOT and organize your plugins into working order, sometimes it makes it worst, but eh

 

also make sure the mods you are installing are not colliding with one another and that they have the requirements they need to run properly

You would wanna make a new save for each test (as in start a new game) and when you crash you could check the papyrus logs.

There really aren't any simple "one solution fits all" kind of fix, you just have to use trial and error!

I just usually try to remember what mods I already have installed/ which gameplay mechanics are modded and I try to make sure no mods overlap each other. Then I usually run LOOT (used BOSS before LOOT came out) and everything seems to work. 
My crashes are related to memory issues (but I want all those re-textures!!!) There have been almost no crashes except some mistakes in ENB configurations since I upgraded my hardware from 1GB VRAM and 3GB RAM to 4GB VRAM and 8GB RAM.

Well last time I had everything sorted with LOOT,met all the requirements, none of my mods were colliding with each other or overlapping at least I think so, generally it was a "safe" mod list but I still got CTDs that I couldn't solve so I uninstalled the game. Now I am trying to set it up from scratch just by a couple mods at a time, I will try that flying stress test You mentioned. If it's stable I will add couple more and test again. Any other suggestions how to monitor the game? I mean I don't wanna start playing "for real" until I made sure everything is stable because it might be my last go at skyrim if it starts crashing again.

Sadly I don't think that is possible without weeks/months of play testing.

 

Heres my load order at least, 0 ctd on a low spec computer. (maybe it can be of use to you)
