» Mon Dec 30, 2013 11:46 pm Hello,
Due to a non-Skyrim related issue I have to reinstall Windows, and I figured that I might as well try to optimize my Skyrim installation while I'm at it. Currently I'm sitting at 213 mods and I'm crashing every hour or so, but since advancing in the main quest the crashing frequency has increased to every ~20 minutes and many areas stall upon loading. Checking my papyrus log shows many mod-related errors, so I'd like to pare down my load order to ~50 mods that all play well together (not including texture mods). If anyone could take a look at the information below, I'd appreciate your input.
System:
6 GB RAM
AMD Radeon 6950 2GB
Running game from Crucial M4 128 GB SSD
Currently Window 7 x64, installing Windows 8.1 x64
Planned Mod List:
SkyUI

Finally, a few questions about the above:
2: Are there any recommended melee combat overhauls that work with Requiem, such as Duel/Deadly Combat/Duke Patrick's?
3: I'd like to install Leveler's Tower to recreate my current character as fast as possible. How big of a CTD risk is this?
4: What's the verdict on Civil War Overhaul 2.0? Is it stable enough to include in this "stable mod configuration"?
Thanks for any help and advice!
