So it can't really qualify to be called in a similar way... :)

So instead, to make sure that even if Tannin is in the team, people don't get the wrong idea, how about NNMO which means NNMO is Not ModOrganizer (what? At least some of you will understand the joke. And maybe the joke inside the joke. But this one is common knowledge now).

I don't think we've heard anything about whether it will have a variation of MO's file system. I imagine it will, at least as an option. The whole point of this merger is to take the best bits of both, not to dumb down MO by removing its main advantage.

Mainly because I simply don't like the name "Mod Organizer". Nothing against Tannin at all!

So, consider that name vetoed.

+1 the community has already been calling it this anyway

And yeah I definitely expect a virtual file system, they did hire MO's developer to make it after all... Edited February 8, 2017 by opusGlass

Darn okay. Any confirmation for/against a virtual file system, Dark0ne?

Edit: And might I suggest you call it NEMO? NExus Mod Organizer? It's an appropriate name for a merger of Nexus Mod Manager and Mod Organizer, it sounds adorable, and it invokes the same "I'll use two letters if I want to," attitude that USLEEP had before it got ported to the Special Edition.

+1 for NEMO!

As far as I know, and don't quote me on this, we plan to allow you to pick how you want the file management to work from a number of options, but some might not be done by launch.

Similarly, we're making the software as open source and as easily extendible/extensible as possible, so if we don't do something, some devs could. Modding the mod manager, in essence. Modception. Edited February 8, 2017 by Dark0ne

Another name suggestion: ModNX

As in "Modern Nexus" and/or "Mods with Nexus".

 

Also, are you guys already interested in people beta testing your new mod manager? I'm certainly interested in taking a peek at your new mod manager, and how well LOOT is working with it.

Please do not steal from us the only good mod manager that has ever existed and replace it with something that isn't any better than the much older offerings.

+1 My thought exactly.

*edit*
Didn't see Dark0ne's answer before posting. Nexus Mod Organizer made the most sense to me. Oh well... as long as it is able to use a virtual file system like MO, I'll use it, regardless of the name. Edited February 8, 2017 by inawe

TacticalAce wrote: Very nice! So basically most of the hard work is done and you guys need someone to make it look pretty. I hope you guys can get a UI designer soon, I have been absolutly fiending for this mod manager to release. I was an avid mod organizer user but decided for SSE I would just wait for the new fully supported mod manager. Seems Like its still a couple of months off but its good to know progress has been great! Thank You!

If you're wanting something simple to tide you over, try out my tool, BMO. It's on the Skyrim Special Edition site. I plan to switch to NMM2 if it's decent but this is a nice, non-invasive way to keep your mods separate and organized in the mean time. (Disclaimer: intended for advanced users, most people probably won't like it.) Edited February 8, 2017 by opusGlass
