    Getting some consistent crashes related to (BGSWaterCollisionManager::bhkWaterfall*), and this seems like the only water related mod I've installed recently.

      Please file a bug report so I can track. As well as additional info (place it occurs, reproducibility, crash log, etc)

      FYI, I'm getting the same types of crashes. They go away with this mod disabled. All referencing: BGSWaterCollisionManager::bhkWaterfall

      Hoping that these are fixed now, removed the dynamic water meshes that had no need to be modified anyway.

      Somehow, even with the fix, I still get that crash, which is repeatable, but goes away with this uninstalled. :/

      Interesting. I don't touch anything related to collision, and I can't see how the Shader Property flags or the Lighting Influence value would have anything to do with it either. Open a bug report with the crash log, the process you use to recreate the crash, and any other mods you have that affect the same meshes this mod does. I'll investigate once I have that info.

      For what its worth, preliminary testing with 1.3 seems to have at least reduced crashing in SkyrimSE.exe+051E543 (game version 1.6.1170.0). I've had none so far, and before with version 1.1 it happened randomly, but at least once in about 30 minutes regardless of where in the world I was.

      It was quite fortunate that RadiantWings identified this mod as the potential culprit, as it might have taken me a while to locate the issue. The crash log really contains nothing more in terms of hints other than that it was likely caused by some actor in some cell colliding with water. Water particles make sense in hind-sight.

      Example crash log in the spoiler tag below. Most likely what happened in that one was that a mudcrab (0xFF000E32) in Wilderness (0xFF000C91) splashed a puddle, or something similar. This is entirely assuming RDX and RBX actually had anything to do with the function where it crashed. I didn't look at this in a debugger, it's all speculation.

      Genuinely helpful info here, thanks kGnome. I've gone back and checked some of the crashlogs from when I was trying to reproduce and it will sometimes feature a Character pointer near the top of the stack, though not always. Roughly where were you when you had this crash?

      That specific crash was most likely in the mountains above Rorikstead, i.e. on the path to the little tent camp with the 2 dead lovers, between Rorikstead and Old Hroldan. These crashes occured basically everywhere though, as in, just running from Windhelm via Falkreath to Markarth it would crash anywhere and at any time.

      It's unfortunate that the cell ref id can't easily be translated to an actual cell to confirm the location. Tried with xEdit and the game itself (prid). I'll see if I can find it somewhere; maybe the save file.

      Make sure the crash logs you compare to have the exact same faulting offset (assuming your game version is also 1170), otherwise we're dealing with multiple problems. I generally require at least 2 or 3 of the topmost callstack entries to be identical, but it really depends on what is going on in the faulting offset.

      Automated patcher is a while off. You can list mods that conflict here so I can add them to the list to patch - no guarantees though.

      @hdf2 just overwrite Forgotten Retex and Little Things you won't be losing anything, and Little Things is just redundant attempting to fix a lot of which CS Particle Patch is, webs, dust, mist etc. Also I have Placed Light and there's no conflicts with the main mod, I think you mean the Placed Light Embers XD patch

      i was having serious ctd's with natural waterfalls and its water overhaul with this, but having CS Particle Patch load before fixed it.  The strange thing is that it was crashing in areas without a lot of water, like the top of Elderblood Peak and riding across the Whiterun Plains.

    Thanks for your hard work. I use it by overwriting Particle Patch and the changes are noticeable, especially in water.
    Very good job (=

    By the way, could you consider the idea of separating the patches from the main mod?. In my case I use your patches for ERM and SMIM, so to keep a correct order in my modlist, I have created empty mod folders (MO2) to place the patches and thus place them under the original mods. If the idea doesn't convince you, I don't mind to keep doing it this way on my own. Thank you very much.

      Hot tip: if you reinstall a mod and rename the mod during the reinstallation process it will create that new mod folder and leave your old one alone ;)

      Thanks for the tip. That was my idea in the first place, but when choosing the modular installation, the second step needs at least one component to be installed in order to proceed. This can be solved by changing “SelectAtLeastOne” to “SelectAny” in the Components part of the fomod, a change I would appreciate for future versions.

      Thank you. Only one drawback, and that is that the option to install only the ERM patch does not install anything, although the folder and the mesh is in the zip file. I am very short of time, so I have not been able to stop to look at what is wrong, sorry.
