I've been having irregular issues with textures not loading, so I get just the model with a plain colour. This has happened with weapons, armour and the loading screen models. Next time it happens, I'll try to remember to take a screenshot.

Thought I'd post here and ask if anyone could help with ideas on how I could go about tracking down the reason why (and if someone else has come across the issue before).

I'm guessing it is one or more of the mods that I have installed:

_{You might be out of vram. If they've been showing up purple or black for instance, that's a very good sign of it. Used to happen to me all the time. You might want to start using the low res versions of them unless you want to bother with getting a better graphics card. Mine is 512mb, and is outdated as of now, but if I keep stuff 1024 or lower, I don't run into those issues anymore. I use most of those, I know the circlet one caused that to happen a lot for me. Turn it down to 1024 if you can handle it, by sizing it in gimp for instance. Might help some.}

Sorry for the slow reply, I've been awol for the past few weeks. Thanks for the tip, I'll see if it happens without the circlet mod, next time I feel like running Skyrim. Can't really replace my video card though, as I run a laptop.

And yeah, the models were showing up as either black or a violet purple, all shiny like.
