So first of all: as an arachnophobic I am a big fan of this mod and I am incredibly glad this exists.
For those who download this in the future, though: Creation Club content is only semi included. Arachnia uses a default Frostibite spider model, so the mod uses the fail safe method: You'll see a floating weird fox that just floats there. As so, the Pets of Skyrim CC is more or less covered. Looks weird, but no spider. But The Contest CC uses a new model for the boss spider, so the Web Mother is very much still there and very much still terrifying because this mod does not include that one model as it was released in 2021 (and the mod is from 2016).
I do believe there is another mod similar to this one that deals with CC content but yeah. This one does not so do not make my same mistake of not thinking and taking that quest expecting Insects Begone, a 2016 mod, to deal with a creation club pack from 2021 lol
So after some experimenting, I realized that this mod might seemingly cause my game to crash the instant the Web Mother's spawn is triggered during the Caught in a Web quest from the Creation Club addon, the Contest, in Cronvangr Broodlair. I believe it's not the Web Mother but the quest itself that's been broken, as I'm unable to trigger any of the points beyond '30' (the numeral designation for the point in the Caught in a Web quest, particularly when the Web Mother is supposed to drop down). The Web Mother does not generate unless I trigger that part of the quest, so I can't kill or disable it, or I can disable it but I crash all the same. For the record, I never played Skyrim SE long enough without this mod, which otherwise runs considerably smoothly, so I don't know if it's the mod or if it's me, and trust me when I say I have no desire to find out unless I really really have to. What's more, I believe I got Spiders Begone and Chaurus Begone separately from Bethesda.net via Skyrim SE.
I've been using this https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/37319?tab=description Supposedly it isn't perfect for everyone, but I haven't run into any big problems with it.
Think I've come across the weirdest Skyrim glitch using this mod. When fighting the Invading Bears (Spiders) in dungeons or caves they'll randomly glitch into the air and get stuck in the ceiling

AE version (with CC stuff) for those too lazy to search for it yourselves

Anybody else had this problem managed to fix it?
