BleachBones Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 So Long story short I've been wrestling with This website for the last few days, and out of 32 mods I downloaded from this site, 24 need updates. I'm using MO2. I looked for the most recent versions, I just don't know what to do anymore. Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showler Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Beyond Skyrim Bruma shows 1.6.3 on their page and you have 1.6.2 so that seems correct. The others don't appear to be getting the version number correctly since they're showing a date rather than a version number so MO2 is pretty much just telling you there's an error there.

AaronOfMpls Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) Indeed, and you can manually set the correct version number on those if you know it or can find it. (Especially on off-Nexus mods, since MO2 can't grab their info automatically.) Also, if you download any Nexus mods manually (instead of the Download With Manager option), you can put the zips/7z's/rar's in MO2's download folder. Then before you install them, go in MO2's Downloads tab, and right-click them > Query Info, so they get the right metadata on mod name, version number, etc. Edited January 15 by AaronOfMpls slight clarification Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiusrsatti Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) sometimes, even with the correct query info (in download tab, right click and query prior to install... you must tie your nexus account into MO2 settings for access and to be able to download through MO2 so that you don't have to manually query mods from Nexus), and the correct version number on the install, if the mod page wasn't updated to match latest version, MO2 will show red version data. it's also possible that MO2 can misidentify the version on install, and label it wrong... see next item on mods that you didn't query info, weren't downloaded through MO2, or you can't remember which version you installed, you can open the meta.ini file inside the mod folder, and maybe 90% of the time the install file will be named with the version number and displayed inside. you can enable another column, Nexus ID... this column will basically just let you know if the install is tied to the Nexus server for the version matching feature to work properly... this requires the query info to work correctly, prior to install it might not apply to your current installs, but if the mod in question has multiple mods with different version numbers, like additional patches, only 1 version number will be relevant, whichever is tied to the Nexus mod page, usually the main mod, so all the patches with different versions will show outdated or not matching latest version Edited January 17 by radiusrsatti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
