(NSFW). I wouldn't recommend using MO's 'import' method, since things can go wrong and it's fairly easy to do things manually. Just do the following:. 1: In NMM, under Tools select 'Uninstall all active mods'. 2: Exit NMM.
3: Navigate to NMM's 'skyrimmods' directory. Move all the files from the 'mods'-directory (but none of the sub-directories) over to MO's 'downloads'-directory. 4: You can now uninstall NMM and start using MO.
All your old mods is now available on MO's 'downloads'-tab, and you have to baby-sit the installation of a single mod at a time. 5: To guard against any left-over files from some mods adding files to the data-directory, you can delete the data-directory for so 'verify integrity of files' in Steam for Skyrim.
After verifying files, always run Skyrim's launcher once to make sure everything is correctly configured. Note, depending on how you installed SKSE, ENB etc., chances are you'll need to re-install SKSE etc.Step 1 will take some time, but since you don't need to baby-sit this process it taking some time doesn't really matter.
Greetings All!In an effort to recover from extremely-frequent Windows crashes, I elected to buy a new SSD drive and install Windows 7 64-bit fresh onto that. I still have my old drive. It's mounted up as a secondary drive.I'd like to get back to my previous Skyrim configuration. So, I've already downloaded and installed Steam, Skyrim, and BOSS onto the new drive. I've downloaded Nexus Mod Manager, but I haven't installed it yet.
But now I'd like to:a) Restore my mods' installations.Restore my saved games.c) Restore Nexus Mod manager (so that it 'sees' my already-installed mods once again).Can anybody advise me on procedures to do all of that?I would assume that for 'a', I'd simply locate the directory where the mod files are installed on the old drive. And copy all that stuff over to the exact same path on the new drive. And the same thing for the saved games (though I have no clue where those might be located).But as far as getting Mod Manager to see all of that, I'm not so sure.Thanks!-= Dave =-Posts: 3444 Joined: Thu Jul 19, 2007 4:07 pm. That is basically what you have to do. By default:Installed mod is saved in your install game directory. Typically C:Program FIlesSkyrimDataSaved mods by NMM are saved in another directory, depending on your choice when you install NMM.
Mine isC:GamesNexus Mod ManagerSkyrimModsI would reinstall from the archived downloads rather than the mod files themselves. This should give you a cleaner reinstall.Now, since SSD space is precious, you can put these archive directories on another drive on your new install. I have done this with all my mod managers so my SSD only has the games on it, all the archives and extracted mods take up space on my data drive, and only my installed mods are in the game directory.
Yes, the Data Files folder where the extracted/installed mods does need to be in the Data Files folder in the game install directory. I am just talking about the zip files that you download from Nexus.Posts: 3451 Joined: Wed Aug 15, 2007 10:29 am. OK, thanks very much for the information!I've located the archived mods and have moved them over to the same path on the new drive, then fired up Nexus Mod Manager. It complained that I hadn't initialized Skyrim yet, but it let me past that.
How To Clear Nexus Mod Manager 1
So I was then able to tell it exactly what paths to use for the Mod and Install Info directories. I then shut it down.Installed SKSE. (Almost forgot about that.)Launched Skyrim, just to get it to initialize and detect my video card settings, and then I shut it down again.
How To Uninstall All Mods Nexus Mod Manager
I was HOPING it would have done something that would confirm what directory it was going to use for saved games.I located my old saves in F:My DocumentsMy GamesSkyrim.I'm thinking Skyrim itself will probably try to shove the data onto C: (even though I do have another non-SSD drive available. It'd be nice to do quick-saves without seeing my screen hesitate.).I was about to tell you I wasn't seeing the saved game directory on my C: drive, but I just spotted it. So, all I need to do now is copy those over, then fire up Nexus Mod Manager and start installing mods.Guess I'll know if this all works later tonight when I actually play. (I'm currently remoted in from elsewhere.)Thanks very much!!-= Dave =-Posts: 3439 Joined: Tue Jul 11, 2006 6:37 pmDisplay posts from previous: Sort.
