Things are a lot better and the crashes are gone. A few observations:
I did not know that 'Colonial Houses v1.53' included in <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr> 0.07 was the same as the 'New England Colonial Mod' available on steam (mostly 'cuz the names aren't the same.)
Enabling beta stopped the crashes. As I was not crashing before, I must have been using only the non-beta versions of CCJ and <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr> through steam.
I updated maritimes (from here) to 104.4, although I don't think this mod was involved in my crash issues. (I don't often play water worlds, and rarely even use quay buildings, let alone the full range of amazing stuff in maritimes... but I will disable it in-game and go through and get all the modular sets this week. whew!)
I changed my mod order and a ton of new things became available and the menus look different (yay). My mod list is now:
ridiculous storage
Maritimes (will disable today and get sets this week)
New England Colonial (from steam, will also disable today, but doesn't seem to bother <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr> 0.07)
Forest Deep v3 (will seek updated stuff this week when i get all the maritimes sets, but this one doesn't seem to bother <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr> 0.07 either)
1.0.7 Compatibility (may not apply to CCJ 1.75 but doesn't seem to bother either 1.75 or <abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr> 0.07)
CCJ 1.75
<abbr title="MegaMod">MM</abbr> 0.07
Mega Deco 0.07
to circle around to the original post, resource limits are happy now (no weird amounts at start, and no more crashes) after I did three things: a) enabled beta in steam, b) updated several - but not all, yet - mods from here, and c) tweaked my mod order.
played for 7 hours last night, and noticed my small market and hospital have made a happy face in my town!
