Still likely a mod, all it takes is for one dirty script somewhere in the world to send it crashing. Try running TESVEdit to clean the files.
I've cleaned the files.
I actually fixed the cache, then came back and cleaned it again as all of the ITM files were back.
Now I'm getting the game with no audio and it freezes my whole high end computer. This only fucking happens with the broken ass mess of a Bethesda game. And this is the point I'm reminded this is Bethesda and that I'm fucking done for the time being.
Vanilla game is too meh, with the mods it would have been fun with Sofia on my side making bad jokes and shit.
I was looking to play the game in the meantime while FFXV came out, but I obviously can't play this game until more time passes since its release and the modding community/SKSE are out. Maybe next year I'll come back.
I just wanted to get back into a massive open world 'be whoever you want to be' game I can get a big ass sword and wear sweet armor. Unfortunately there aren't many titles like what I want, if any, that aren't from Bethesda with a mod community as large.
