  1. In response to post #43223160. #43223235, #43225810, #43226065, #43226570, #43226580, #43226675, #43226930, #43227145, #43227835, #43229000 are all replies on the same post. @ Moriador While I can't speak to using the CK with MO, because I haven't used it, I can say that what you described is what I think most of the problem with MO.... people don't understand it so they don't like it. How I came to understand it, was that MO "injects" a mods assets into the game's DATA folder when a mod is activated without actually writing it there, and possibly overwriting a file that is already there and permanently breaking a game. You are ALWAYS using the clean backup of your DATA folder because you never change it.. The reality is, when you use MO, every mod you install creates a folder with the mod's name (e.g. Steamapps/Skyrim/ModOrganizer/mods/modxyz) and all of the assets are extracted there instead of your game's actual DATA folder. You then simply "activate" a mod when you want to use it, or deactivate it if you don't. You have total freedom to go into the mod's folder and change or delete files at will if you please, either through MO or with Explorer. There is also a nifty function to "hide" a file in MO so it won't be used without deleting/destroying it.(great for texture/sound mods when you want to use some parts of 1 mod, and some parts of another mod) While this all might be moot at this point, because who knows how the new tool is going to work, I hope I made the MO virtualization make a little more sense. Yes, you launch your game from within MO, but I did the same with NMM, so it didn't bother me.

Well I personally believe it's silly to NOT use LOOT, but in MO if you didn't want to check your order, just don't hit the "sort" button. In MO the "sort" is a paired down version of LOOT without tag downloads, or you can install the full LOOT and use it as an shortcut from within MO. I would hope it will be the same type of setup.
  3. In response to post #43228135. #43228440 is also a reply to the same post. Why go right to negativity?? I think it is very UNsafe to say it is just going to be a "re-branded MO" It appears to me that they are wanting to produce a simple, yet powerful NEW tool for everyone to use with varying degrees of complexity based on need. I didn't read anywhere that they are "forcing" anything, I read that they are taking all of the feedback from BOTH tools to incorporate the best features into 1 "best" tool. I switched from NMM to MO 2 years ago, and found it simply wonderful to be able to try out different mods in different orders without breaking my base game. I will admit there was a learning curve, but not too steep, and I am far from an advanced modder. I for 1 am excited to see what these talented minds can come up with. For whatever this or that, I say all of them are in it because they want to give people the best modding experience possible, so lets give them a chance before we jump on our band-wagons and shoot harpoons because we "think" we already know what they are going to do...
  4. OK.. I got a shiny new GTX980ti from Santa (he's not so cheap anymore.. sheesh) and decided to get back into Tamriel and see some stuff and kill some things, the only problem is that no matter what resolution I set in launcher, the screen scales back to 1080p. (the resolution still shows what I have it set at in launcher, but still 1080 big on screen) I used to love playing Skyrim with nVidia DSR set to 1440p, because I could see so much more of the scene, and the HUD was nice and small on the edges of the screen and no need for AA. Let me qualify this with: I have completely removed all mods, it is completely vanilla now, with only the offical DLC (including the Hi-Res DLC).I am running Win10 64bit (not Pro)I have completely wiped out the game 3 times and re-installed, trying every tip I could find so far (removing XBOX, adding the dx11.dlls to the main file, cleaning the registry).I finally figured out how to turn off the cloud service in Steam so I have an empty "My Games/Skyrim" folder each time.NMM and Mod Manager are uninstalled and not going back in until this is fixed...I have uninstalled all "crapware" (Afterburner, MSI Gaming mod, etc.)I am not sure if it is an nVidia issue, a Win10 issue, or Skyrim issue, but I will say that I have tried 3 other games (all STEAM) and they work happily. (assuming Skyrim issue) Any suggestions at all are GREATLY appreciated, this is driving me nuts and I have been messing with it for 2 days now... :wallbash: It used to work, and I want it back.... PLEASE..!! :facepalm: :sad:
