Thank you for the report. I'm going to PM you for some additional information and questions. Anyone else who reads this, I will probably just remove the files. I no longer have the mod running on my current load order, because I'm working on a few other things during another play-through. I could load the EAI Framework up and my mod, but the way the framework "works" is by building in the background. A lot of variables come into play that you aren't anywhere near to witness. So, it is nearly impossible to say what all problems can occur. I made this mod, another with farmers, and one with several teams of monster/enemy slaying patrols, all using the EAI Framework. I had them all running at the same time with Organic Factions and Extensions and never experienced a single crash. That being said, I have also played with only a few stable, well maintained mods and had issues after only a few hours of play. A lot of times, it is just a matter of how a certain script fired at any given moment and whether something else affected its proper execution. When that happens, the information is "baked into" your save, sort of a glitch that is permanently added that may cause problems later, or may go unnoticed forever.
If you use "Animal Tweaks mod", hunters are quite defensive and I rarely see them fall in my game even with extremely hardening mods. Furthermore why are you worried about hunters since they respawn? and if you made them protected there is no need to boost their stats.
If you read the description, you will see that this was inspired by the Enhanced AI Framework. The sole reason I made this was to test the framework. After using it for a while, and seeing some of the NPC interactions, I thought others might like to check it out as well. It sounds like you have no need for the mod, since you are already satisfied with your hunters. Thank you for your comments.
Do you think that Skyrim AI engine can be improved with 10 scripts? AI Framework is a too big name and one has to start to hazardously experiment with Skyrim game-play.
ArisGM: If you're not familiar enough with the content of the EAI Framework, or what [pushdown automation] is, you might want to read up on those before making further comments. If it's not your personal play style, that's fine, please enjoy other mods.
I looked through your list. Nothing really stands out as a problem, though AI Overhaul might be an issue. I'm pretty sure it changes packages, which could conflict with any that my mod changes. You might try sorting the load order. Did you use the esp or the esl flagged esp? I apologize for the late reply. If you do figure it out, please let me know, and I'll add it as an issue in the description. I have other Enhanced AI mods that I've created, but haven't released, and I've never had a crash issue even with over 300 mods sometimes running. But if there is an issue, I would like to let anyone know before they waste their time downloading this. It is definitely not a "must have" type of mod, just something that can add a little extra entertainment at times.
CorpseLetter: Thanks for the heads up. As per above, I've seen several reports and Papyrus log dumps that indicate that "AI Overhaul" mod might be causing problems. I'd check again to see if taking that out of your load order solves your issue.

Why didn't you ever release these other mods?
Here's my modlist:

I've been away for quite some time -- just came back to the Skyrim modding community. Kudos on the build, glad you found the framework useful!
glad to see we're getting more use out of EF
