Stripping Back Mods for Testing - Crash Help

I'm testing a Mod on a modded save, and have created a new profile with just the mod I'm testing and PAK Utility. I'm getting a crash on startup, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me which mod(s) or lack of mods are causing the crash.

Strange. Fred says 3 mods, but I only have 2.

Conveyor chain actor crashes are more often based on what's in the save file than what mods are currently installed

Thanks. I'm not familiar with Conveyor Chain actor - literally to do with my belts/conveyors? ...or is that some term of art from UE? I think I may have built a few conveyors using Aquila's Flex Splines, so might it literally be a mod that messes with belts? Just put Flex Splines and a couple other belt-related mods back in and now it loaded. Thanks for your helpful hints.

Interesting, so removing the mod was causing crashes? Were you able to track it down to a specific belt mod? any updates? would like to know so the mod page can be updated accordingly

When I opened the save with ONLY Flex Splines, SnapOn, AutoLink re-enabled, the crashes no longer occurred on loading. I did not narrow it down any further because I was trying to do something else. I also had PAK Utility Mod throughout the testing. In any case, one of those first three seems to cause saves to crash on loading if it was removed from the SMM profile. If I can find some time I'll go back and eliminate one at a time and see what I get.
