So I opened up Skyrim today and it said failure to enumerate subscribed files. Which meant it couldn't check to see if my subscribed mods were up to date. Okay. I just made sure they all still loaded. Anyways, I loaded up my main character, exited Lakeview Manor, and used the carriage ride to go to Dawnstar. I killed a dragon, accepted a radiant quest from some ship capatin. Went to the inn, bought some food and mead, went to bed, and started to make my way southwest towards Brood Cavern. anyways, when I was walking there, I quicksaved, then right after that I crashed to the desktop. I tried loading up Skyrim again and I crashed almost instantaneously when I loaded up my quicksave.
Anyways the third time around Steam was able to check if my subscribed mods were up to date, so I deleted the quicksave and loaded my previous save before the Steam issue and I was able to play for about 1 hour with no issues until I got bored.
?So what happened? I should mention that this all happened on my main level 62 character which I've had since launch week and the save file is about 20 MBs right now. Did the Steam error prevent an important mod from being loaded? I have the Unofficial Dawnguard, Hearthfire, Dragonborn, and HD Textures Patches from Steam downloaded and I made sure they were checked to load. Could that have been the issue?
