Looking for some help with trouble shooting.

I released a mod for Honeyside but people are crashing when they try to enter it. This is the first mod I've ever released and I don't know what's wrong with it.

I've tested the mod and when I load a game where I haven't been into Honeyside before everything works okay. When I tried to load a save where I've already been inside I CTD.

Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Have you deleted any vanilla objects? That's a no-go.

Instead of deleting them, just set their Z position to -30k and set them as initially disabled. The crashes occur when the game tries to reference a deleted object. But if they're disabled and far away nothing untoward should occur.

Sigh I wish I knew that before I spent DAYS on the mod. Well at least the remake will go much faster since I've learned a lot from the mistakes I made on this one.

Thanks so much guys. <3

in the File/Data menu when you select your mod and click on the Details button, you see a list of changes.

Entries with a "D" in the second column are stuff that is deleted by your mod. Press Del to ignore the deletion entries, and the deleted objects are back (undeleted :) ).

Best move the stuff you want to keep to another place before doing so, and the deleted stuff won't mess up your house. After that proceed as Ali described, leave the objects out of the player's view and disable them

So I've removed all Deleted items and refinished the mod. Now while testing everything looks fine till I try to reload an older save where I had already bought Honeyside. Anything else that might cause that problem?
