Commando1701 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Hi. Does NMM use BOSS? I think I've seen a few times it looks for some kind of masterlist, but wasn't looking at it long enough. If it doesn't do I have to download it separately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldofscotty Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 You have to install it originally then NMM updates it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blaa.nOx Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 You have to install it originally then NMM updates it I´m pretty sure I never installed boss but NMM regularly says an updated masterlist is available?!I think it makes use of it automatically- at least certain features like load order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobusExtremus Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 To my knowledge, I never installed BOSS and yes, NMM seems to want to download the updated BOSS masterlist. It seems that every time I let it load the udpated BOSS list, my current savegame hangs upon loading. I end of having to kill tesv.exe and load a very early savegame. Once in the game I can load my current savegame and continue. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldofscotty Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Perhaps in the later versions of NMM it does it for you but I have no idea. I know a few months back you had to do it yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totalwarman Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Seems strange because the loading bar never reach the end. I don't know if i have the boss activated or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsoran Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 This is the latest I could find on NMM and BOSS integration, looking at the changelogs there seems to be little change between versions 15.8 and 16.4, but its rather late and I may have missed something. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/news/article.php?id=78#comments I have both installed and as far as I can tell, NMM will update the masterlist but I have to run BOSS to sort mods according to the list.

CarlCorey Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 For me, NMM will update the master list and then, when I run BOSS later, it downloads it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsoran Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) For me, NMM will update the master list and then, when I run BOSS later, it downloads it again. Just had a look, it will do if you have update masterlist ticked in the BOSS gui. I have two locations for the masterlist, one in my BOSS directory and one in My Documents\Nexus Mod Manager. It does appear that both apps don't use the same masterlist. I wonder if its worth nipping over to the Mod Manager forum and asking whats going on ....
