We have had a number of posts about users experiencing Infinite Loading Screens (ILS) or crashes at the start of their game. The Legacy Official Patches work just fine with either version of Skyrim Special Edition, 1.5.x or 1.6.x. There are several reasons for why crashing and/or ILS at the main screen can occur but these patches are not one of them.
The most common things that can lead to beginning of game crashes/ILS are:
A mismatch between your versions of Skyrim and SKSE /Address Library
SKSE-dependent plugins that are mismatched with your version of SKSE /Address Library.
Mod and patch version mismatches.
Having newer CC content and trying to run it with the older versions of the CC patches. Remember the Legacy CC patches have never been part of these official patches and are posted on a different page!
Running patches/mods that are missing their master files.
Corrupt file downloads.
Note: take the time to confirm your versions of all those things, rather than assume you are on a certain version.
Why does the patch for "Better Skill and Quest Books Names SE" change the order of the name in the books? The original mod puts the skill in parenthesis before the book name, which it does consistently for quests and everything, the patch puts the skill name after the book name causing inconsistency in the book names which is annoying given it messes up organization.
not sure if its a bug or it got moved/removed and i cant find the info because I'm blind to the things I'm looking for but is the chest that you can manually put items into for sorting gone now? or am i bugged?
Edit: nvm everything is fine. i reinstalled the patch and it seems to have fixed it
Using Guards Armor Replacer (full version), the armory displays for Windhelm and Eastmarsh activators are reversed, showing the opposite name for each. I thought I had Windhelm by looking at the stand, but I actually had Eastmarsh with a wrong label :p
Hey so, i have the Player Only Version of Cloaks of Skyrim installed, alongside Cloaks of Skyrim Retextured, however, because of how the official patcher works, DBM_CloaksofSkyrim_Patch.esp is never made. Furthermore, Curator's Companion requires that esp for the DBM_CoSRetexture_Patch.esp to function.
I'll be renaming the Cloaks - Player Only.esp to see if it works for the time being, but in any case i'd thought i would inform this.
Are the patches super-optimized or something with the latest update? All my previous patches showed a final size (not download archive size) of 100MB+ in vortex after install, the latest shows 65MB. Of course I could have screwed up something somewhere BIGLY. Just wanted to know.
Nexus says it's 155mb at the moment. Maybe try downloading it again. However I assume after install it would have taken out anything you're not using, so I guess the final size would depend on you.
LOOT doesn't know everything. It needs to be told what is right by Humans. The reality is, Legacy, at this time, does not support the stand alone Dev Avesa mod.

I'll check it out.
A comment chain states how to add the LoTD books to UBGR, is this a sufficient fix or is a patch required?

No other version is supported.

Thanks for clarifying :)
