No problem until after I spoke to Delphine and she tells me to speak to Malborn in Solitude. Diplomatic Immunity had started, was at the 'meet Delphine in Riverwood' stage. Loaded pre-Diplomatic Immunity save for Game 1. Hopefully I'll be back later with good news. Namely, go to Steam and validate/verify the game files. Thought: could switching back and forth between games as I did for a couple of days cause the glitch? Maybe the next thing I should try is something I should probably have done first. And even if a problem developed, I don't see why it would affect the first game. With Game 2 I installed all the mods in 1 big batch before starting a new game. I haven't even started the main quest yet. I went on a carriage ride to discover a couple of places and was able to fast travel no problem. Game 2, I completed the AS, ended up in Whiterun, and didn't try to fast travel until I 'discovered' Whiterun and Whiterun Stables outside of Whiterun. If that's the case, then I better get that over with. I didn't know Diplomatic Immunity could mess with fast travel. That shouldn't affect the alternate start game (game 2). It is Skyrim, so it could be glitched, of course.

On the vanilla start game I've been instructed to meet Malborn in Solitude, but I haven't gone there yet. Or just long enough to travel? Will saving and then undoing god mode fix fast travel for the future? FWIW, I've only done your typical fast travels: from one exterior location to a 'discovered' map marker. Will I have to keep it on for the rest of the game? I don't think I want that. Thanks, I'll try god mode and see if that works.

When I tried to fast travel again w/o using the console, the message appeared and I can't go anywhere except on foot. The console command is only good for one trip. First I fast traveled from near there, via the console and enablefasttravel 1. I'm attaching Game 1 logs from right after I tried to fast travel from Windhelm Stables.

The fast travel issue occurred at the same time for both games. I started Game 2 using the Alternate Start mod, recently, but still have many hours into it. The only change I made to game 1 was to replace zaz animation package 7.0 w/ 8.0+. Even within this pool of commonality, Game 2 has updated versions of a handful of mods. They do not have all the same mods, though there is a large number of mods common to both. I have two games going, each under a different profile in Mod Organizer.

Happens both on and off my horse and with different companions. No updates made (except one, I'll explain below). After several hours, days, of gameplay I am getting this message.
