so everything was going well, until i downloaded 2 cars ( 1 DLC and 1 ELS ) and a siren setting limiter, i did everything right but on start the game just crashes on "loading story mode with rage plugin" and idk why but i changed the mods folder name to _mods and that fixed it but now all the mods i had arent showing

When you rename your mods folder to _mods it disables all of your mods.

 

The crash is probably caused by one of the vehicles you installed (The one in the mods folder). Remove the files related to that vehicle and check if it runs.

 

After doing so, make sure you rename your _mods folder back to mods to re-enable them again.

so i have 1 DLC and one ELS, just to be clear i have to delete both the DLC from dlclist, the ELS's and the YTF, YTD etc files?

The ELS folder isn't in your mods folder. If you are on about a vehicle with ELS, then yes.

 

Any mods you have installed in your mods folder you will have to delete if you don't know which one specifically is causing your game to crash.

 

If you can't remember/find the mods you have installed, I recommend you delete your mods folder and start again installing mods one at a time so you know next time which mod in specific crashes your game.
