Returning to NMM / Questions

[jeb22]

Hey all,

I used to play Skyrim with mods all the time a year or two ago, and I'm not sure if something has changed since I have been gone. How do I make sure my mods are installed and running? I remember whenever I used to install mods via NMM it would usually show them in the plugins, and I would be able to turn them on/off from there. I'm not seeing them now.

Ultimately,I'm trying to get the 'dance of death' mod to work. As a prerequisite, I have to have SKSE and SKYUI installed. SKSE is definitely installed, I know that for sure. I'm not sure if SKYUI is running correctly, and if it is, something has to be wrong with Dance of Death, because I'm not seeing its interface show up in the system menu as it is described in the info section of the mod.

I'm unsure of what to do from here, am not really technically proficient when it comes to any of this stuff, and would appreciate any direction someone can give me.

Thanks in advance

(I am running with the lastest version of NMM)

Do you mean the MCM menu? It usually takes a while for it to pop up. After entering/exiting a few cells it should appear you will get a notification in the upper right corner saying "MCM has registered (1) new menus"

 

just play for a while you should see it if you have SKYui and SKSE setup properly.

 

You should know if SKYui is working properly immediately, first off it will NOT give you an SKSE error, and then you will notice the new UI layout when opening your inventory.

I use both NMM and WyreBash, I use NMM to download and install my Mods, I use Wyre to manage the Mods once installed, I find the built in BOSS in Wyre is great for putting things in the right order and unchecking mods and seeing other mods go orange if I break compatibility is very useful
