Administrator Aslain Posted December 28, 2019 Administrator Share Posted December 28, 2019 Check python.log nor xvm.log for occurrency of exceptions or errors. It's not easy to tell even for experiences modders, quite often it's impossible to tell without try and error method. Quote Link to comment
Darth_Clicker Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I agree with Aslain, trial and error is probably the best way in the long run. Quote Link to comment
kupjones Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) If there is no obvious error in the log file then I start by renaming "mod" first to see if a packaged mod is the culprit. If a crash continues I revert back and rename "resmods" and repeat. That at least helps home in on the class of mod first (packaged or not). Then start disabling mods one at a time. BTW, I have found that sound mods typically are the most bugged mods -- although I did discover recently that an external python script for XVM was causing a problem in that it was outdated. I forgot my first rule of python -- everything is evaluated, regardless of whether or not the code is actually used. I caught the error in the python.log file.
