@1tvluj7cdbze Did you test with only newly downloaded mods and custom content, in a new Mods folder? If not, please do so now: Move the existing Mods folder to the desktop, then load the game to create a new folder, and quit. Download a fresh copy of one mod confirmed compatible with patch 1.96 and see whether it works. Let me know, and we can go from there.

@puzzlezaddict trying that now, but what counts as newly downloaded? could it be something i previously had and redownloaded? i am just going to download something completely new, but i just wanted to know.

  @1tvluj7cdbze By newly downloaded, I meant just a freshly-downloaded copy of any file, whether you'd used it before or not. Now that you've established that a new file works in a new Mods folder, you can try moving some of your previous files to the new folder too. If they don't work, you'll need to download fresh copies.
  
  Keep in mind that some of your current copies may be fine while others are corrupted, so test everything at least once. (You can do so in batches rather than individually.) Please also keep in mind that some of the content you normally use may be outdated, so if fresh copies don't work, you'll need to wait for updates.
