What mod(s), what’s the crash message?

Filthy clothes are in the main game, not (or no longer) a mod.

For stable 0.E: Open the data/mods/No\_Filthy\_Clothes folder and open the modinfo.json in any text editor. Remove the whole `"obsolete": true` line from that file, including the comma one line above. Now you should be able to activate the mod in game.

Also, since you’ve written that you removed the “filthy clothes” mod from the folder, I think you might installed the new version over an older version, which would explain why some of the mods no longer work. You might want to make a new, clean install so you don’t try to activate older (not compatible) mods.  
After that, you might want to take a look at [TheGoatgod’s mod compilation](https://discourse.cataclysmdda.org/t/community-mod-compilation-e-v-1-0c-experimental-v-0-09b-gmc/22725) and see if some of the “older” mods are available there (and should not crash, as s-/he does her/his best to keep them up to date or at least working).

Which is funny, as that one’s actually the one mod that crashed the game recently…
