Welcome back and merry Christmas after 21 months or so. your good where you are! Head for Fifi's mod list to ease into a relatively ctd proof mod-world and then get adventurous to taste...it ain't called a mod soup fer nuthin'!

This game is quite a pain to get going, but as Aktungbby said you would be best heading for a megamod lists like Sobers or FiFi's.

But none of these can guarantee you won't get any CTD's though, it will take fine tuning on your end to flush these out, some spend more time trying to get it to work than actually playing, myself being a good example.

This is too much for me... how many mods must one use to get this game to be any good ...

It's very hard to determine a number of mods that would optimize one persons playing experience, I would recommend taking a look at the Sobers Megamod thread and FiFi's modlist threads.
