Hello, after updating my game recently, I noticed that it would crash after the title screen, I fixed that issue, then when loading, my plumbob on the loading screen was replaced with the image of a llama, usually the image when the game can't find something.

Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title, Adjusted Title to fit

  • Okay, so I finally fixed it. It was a hair cc file, I can’t recall the name of it because I found it last night.

    In the list of broken mods for this patch, most of them have been updated already, but the 50/50 method worked, just try putting a few files into your game at once to track down the one thats causing issues.

  • I too am having this problem but am struggling to narrow it down. Is the item you deleted still in your trash folder? Maybe we have the same one
