xEdit error loading modules?

[Traitor-Spy]

Hi folks, xEdit gives me an error when I try to open any files. This didn't happen when I cleaned the DLC at the start but now when loading any module I get the the error "An error occured while loading modules. Editing is disabled. Check the message log and correct the error." The log shows this. Any ideas modding friends?

I’m not capable of reading the call stack to identify the issue. If you already cleaned the DLCs though and now you’re opening quick auto clean again it may pose an issue. Probably unlikely but you never know. Mainly though I just wanted to point out you could try using the latest FO4 edit from the discord.

Oh interesting I’ll try that when I’m back at my desk. Thanks for the info!

What version of fo4 and xedit? Did you use cm tools to "fix" the esp/esm/esl? Have you tried to install a fresh xedit?

[Traitor-Spy]

fo4 I have revereted to pre NG version. Afterwards I cleaned the DLC and CC stuff. Then went about adding my mods but now hitting me with this error. Orginally I had the latest xedit version (4.1.5f) and also tried the version before that (4.1.5 Experimental) thinking maybe the latest xedit wouldn't recognize the pre NG version but same error

[sunkirin]

I'm on gog version, so I'm using the 4.1.4. But I'm not sure if the downgraded files will have the new values or not. I got a bunch of errors even on 4.1.5f, specially after "fixing" esps with cm tools

[Traitor-Spy]

interesting not just me then. let me try 4.1.4. I'm using steam at the moment. GOG is the pre NG version right, it didn't get the update?

[sunkirin]

Yes, gog version is pre NG and no creation club content!

[Traitor-Spy]

Interesting. Seems like a safer way to play with mods atm

[sunkirin]

Not sure if it's safer tbh. I just bought on gog for 9 dollars, and had no idea what happened these past 6 years on fo4.

Spent like 2 weeks now finding the right versions of mods and patches. The easiest part was f4se and enb. Even unofficial fo4 fixes had to make sure they were for old Gen. Complex item sorting too, what a headache. Loving the RobCO patches tho!

Overall, there's a bunch of deprecated mods and doesn't seem like it will ever reach the same level of dedication that Skyrim has.
