The limit is 255 plugins (*.esm and *.esp files). Scripts, How much is too much? Edited Decemby Bradl3y You say to yourself 'Okay, I just lost 2 hours of my time, lets hope that doesn't happen again' We've all been there. no missing plugins, TES5EDIT doesn't show me anything that screams 'HEY FIX ME IDIOT' Even if you load a previous save and you bite that bullet. for 5-20 hours, then BAM! save game is dead. reach that 220 plugins point and say 'okay that's enough' and start playing. You can get stuck at startup, download a patch or sort your load order properly and AWAY YOU GO!īut you could get your 250-350 mods setup. How would I know? I feel like this part of the modding guide is by far the most important. I'm certain the answer is right there staring me in the face, buried in those logs. I don't even know what half of that **** is.

I've nuked my setup more than I'd like to admit.

I've lost well over 100 hours of my life building a modded skyrim for a playthrough that was doomed from the start. Log off / reload the game and everything is fine. I've played for hours before and experienced one CTD. Immediately started the game right back up and everything was fine. How do you know you have too many scripted mods without reaching a CTD? and how do you know that CTD is catastrophic or minor? I've experienced CTD's at startup. Even googled it just now and there it is, the first thing that comes up is 255. So I have heard about Skyrim having a plugin limit.

How many mods is too many
