Okay so i got past my previous "no menu after clicking new game", but now a different issue has arrived.. there is no wall when entering helgen in the carriage. I don't know why its a big issue, but for some reason the horses speed up on that last little road, crash into the gate (which doesnt open) and fly around. I would post a screenshot, but i don't have permission



I don't understand whats causing this, it worked fine before i got some steam workshop mods, and i didnt get anything that had to do with walls, helgen, etc. if someone can help, please do. more info will be given upon request

Disable any and all mods and remove any loose files in the Data folder that are not ESP/ESM/BSA files or did not come with the base game, remove any and all third party script extenders/injectors/etc, verify your files, and then try again. If the issue went away, reinstall mods. If the issue returned after reinstalling the mods, please see: http://www.gamesas.com/forum/183-skyrim-mods/

Ahhh, I was once as naive as that.
Skyrim mods are a very strange being, and mixing different mods can have some very unforeseen and sometimes hilarious issues.

For all you know, a modder who makes a mod that changes Lydia's hair colour, may have sneakily also deleted a piece of wall somewhere, just for shniz and gigs

Disable a mod at a time if you only have a few, find the cause. Probably just a random conflict as krosis said

I am having the EXACT same issue. No walls, horse cart crashes into the gate, start doing barrel rolls and then the game just quits.

Turned out two quest mods (the Bigger They Are and No Mercy) were giving me trouble. Are you perchance using either or both of those mods?
