Uploading my first mod BA2

[kitcat81]

Hello everyone! Please, help me to understand how to upload my first mod, I spent a few hours trying to figure it out, but most threads that I can find are either for Skyrim or don`t tell anything about BA2 . I have MyMod.esp , MyMod - Main.BA2 and MyMod - Textures.BA2. I put them in a folder with the same name as my .esp. Don`t know what to do next. My mod does not alter any files and it`s a really small mod, but it uses a few models from one of the DLC. That DLC was added as one of 2 parent masters in CK. I`ve never uploaded any mods at all and have not created any mods untill now. I want my mod to work with NMM.

First, congrats on making your first mod.

What you need to do is create your file structure so it looks something like this -

Create Data folder. Your MyMod.esp , MyMod - Main.BA2 , and MyMod - Textures.BA2 will all need to go in here.

You can then place the Data folder in the other folder you mentioned that you'd made. Then all you have to do is create an archive (.zip file) of it using 7zip and your ready to upload to the Nexus and create your mod page.

 

Bear in mind that many users who use the latest (beta) version of NMM are having trouble installing mods using it, and that Nexus have stated that they no longer support it (due to recent developments) and are actively working on a new mod manager.

Great thanks! I`m happy to know that I`m in a step from completeing this "operation". You saved me at least an hour of sleep. I heard of this problem with NMM, I have not updated my NMM since 0.61.23 version. Had a feeling that it`s better not to do it as people were complaining about updates. Well, I hope that it will get fixed or that another mod manager will appear soon enough.
