The easiest way is to create new mod (right click -> All mods -> Create empty mod) and move everything from Overwrite folder there. The easiest option is to just delete the back up, as you don't really need to keep them.įNIS, SKSE AND EVERYTHING ELSE: Any log files created by these that appear in the Overwrite need to be moved into the different folder. The folder will be removed from Overwrite, and appear in the left pane. Or copy, and paste it into it, and delete the original from the Overwrite.Īnother option would be to right click the Overwrite Folder, and select create mod. If you want to keep them you can create a folder elsewhere, and drag it into that. SEEEdit: When you clean your masters it will place a back up of the original plugins into the Overwrite Folder.

This will let you know the Overwrite contains files. Keep an eye out for the triangle containing an exclamation mark near the top right corner turning red, and a number appearing. Double clicking it will bring up the main folder it contains, but to access the contents, you need to right click Overwrite, and select open with Explorer. What you do with them depends on what type of file it is. Any files in Overwrite will take top priority when loading your mod files and will always overwrite any other mod in your profile. Creation Club ESL files will also end up here when downloaded. OVERWRITE FOLDER: The overwrite folder is found at the bottom of the left pane, and is used to store files MO doesn't recognise, because it doesn't know where to place them. These files are typically newly created files, usually generated by an external mod tool (i.e. If you want to remove it completely, right click it, and select remove. To uninstall, un-tick the box you ticked to install it. Sometimes the Data folder will already be showing. If it does, double click the mod in the pop up screen, right click the Data folder, and set it to data directory. When installing a mod with MO, it may say 'No game data on top level', and a screen will pop up. If it contains a plugin, it will then also appear in the right panel, which is your load order. INSTALLATION: Once a mod has been added it will appear in the left panel.

MANUAL DOWNLOAD: To add a mod to MO that you downloaded manually, click the computer and CD symbol (Install a new mod from an archive) on the main top left tool bar, navigate to where your mod is located, and double click it. It could be useful if you want the mods to be stored on your HDD, rather than your SDD, to save space. To do this click the tab with three dots opposite downloads, and navigate from there. If you did click yes, and you want to choose where MO stores the mod, click on the screwdriver, and spanner symbol, click the Paths tab, and point the downloads to a folder of your choosing.

It will automatically login for you when you press the Download With Manager button. Click the Nexus tab, type in your Nexus user name and password, and click the box that says automatically login to the Nexus. To sign into the Nexus with MO, click on the screwdriver, and spanner symbol (configure settings, and workarounds) on the main top left tool bar. You may want to keep an untouched copy of any mods you use, because it's not unknown for mod authors to hide them temporarily, or even remove them completely.ĭOWNLOAD WITH MANAGER:When you first launch MO it will ask you if you want to set it up to use nxm links, which means do you want to be able to use the Download With Manager button. Sometimes the mod is named differently on the download than its named on the Nexus, but it will share the name found on the files page of the mod (almost always), so check there to see what to look for if your struggling to find it. I tend to have about five mods downloading at any one time. This isn't a big problem if you plan for it by downloading the mods you will need in advance. GENERAL TIPS: If you don't have a premium account, your mods from the Nexus will only download at 1MB per second. The other is to click the Manual Download button, and this will download it to your download folder. One is to click Download With Manager under the file on the Nexus, and this will download it directly to your mod manager. If a mod is hosted on the Nexus, you can add it to MO2 in two ways.
