Davlenagain Posted October 13, 2013 Posted October 13, 2013 Sorry for posting this here if its the wrong place. I have used this site for years and the NMM since version 10. But, it seems that mods, especially skyrim mods are taking a long time to install. I tried to install a mod this morning. from when i hit the button to when it actually started to install. took almost 25 minutes. I am not sure if its something I have done or another issue, but i would like any suggestions. Thank you for your time.
Tulsa299 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 either a problem with the newest version of nmm ( Iv'e noticed an increase as well) or your rigs performance... I've also noticed nmm doesn't like me multitasking, sometimes i'll get an error after trying to install a mod with say chrome or media player having my attention. That hadn't happened before
Deleted31005User Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Or you can go old skool like I do, manually download and install mods, no need for NMM :)
EnaiSiaion Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Don't use NMM. Either install mods manually or use the Nexus to find them and on the Workshop bind them download them. If you need a (bugged) program to download zip files containing typically 1-2 files then I have a revolutionary blanket to sell you.
RazorXE Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 I very rarely use NMM, and when I do use it, Its for mods with an indecipharble folder structure. But all the times I have used it to install mods Its taken a long time compared to simple manual installing.
myztikrice Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 If you use a better manager like Mod Organizer you can just tick or untick the mod to install/uninstall, instead of extracting it everytime. I don't know why people keep using NMM. If it wasn't from the Nexus it would have been dropped like a sack of bricks a long time ago. It's like relying on Internet Explorer when Firefox and Chrome are out there.
Rennn Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 There's no reason to use NMM for most mods. For some with many options NMM is actually better, but most of the time, especially for simple mods, it's better to do it manually. Aside from that, I don't know what the issue/bug/problem you're experiencing is caused by.
