[OLD] Broken/Updated Mods & CC: July 2023 Horse Ranch Patch + Aug. bugfix + Patch 1.100

I dunno if anyone else is having this issue, but all my mods are working okay, but I can't get a save game to load with Tmex's alien, compatibility, mermaid, story, vampire and/or werewolves scripts installed. The game loads, the same starts to do it's thing, and then an LE message appears on my folder and the game spins on indefinitely. I have to kill it with Task Manager. This is post patch, I've eliminated all culprits but those (his other mods I use are in and the game loads fine). So FYI?
