gdy3ar Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I've been using the Modding Beginners Guide so I can prevent my game from exploding every now and again. I get to the "Install a Mod" part of the tutorial and instead of installing something I don't need or what I wanted to install SkyUI. Now for some reason I get access denied errors along with errorcode 5. Does anybody have a solution? I posted on the original post but I've had no reply as of yet. Thank you Original Post - I was really liking this method until I got to the part where I had to install a mod. Instead of installing something I didn't want I opted for SkyUI. I kept getting an error message about some temp file and access denied then an installation error code 5 pop up. Is there a way I can fix this? I don't really want to have to go back to NMM because I like nice clean files but I can't install more folders without installing this one first (through choice... I want things installed in an order I like) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 (through choice... I want things installed in an order I like)what does this mean? what mod organizer are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdy3ar Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Basically I want to install the mods in an order I like, for example the Unofficial Patches, SkyUI, SkyRE, SMIM, texture replacements etc etc then use LOOT (ran through MO) to order it properly. I just choose to install the mods in this order so I don't end up overwriting textures I don't want to overwrite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 LOOT (ran through MO)dont use MOs LOOT it is outdated. use the standalone, the link to it is in my signature. do yo have SKSE? and have you started skyrim via Steam before modding?

gdy3ar Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 I've been playing and using mods for a while but I went straight to the NMM because it seemed easiest! I want to use more mods and I want to install them properly for a more stable game so I followed the guide. Yep, I've got SKSE and I started via Steam (played until completed the first quest. Unbound something? Using that as my clean save). That's the LOOT I have at the moment and linked it to MO as the guide suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 That's the LOOT I have at the moment and linked it to MO as the guide suggested.well done, lots of people dont do that. Yep, I've got SKSE and I started via Steam (played until completed the first quest. Unbound something? Using that as my clean save).first things first, no such thing as a clean save. next i recommend using Alternate start instead. are you able to install SkyUI manually?

gdy3ar Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Thanks haha, just following the guide! Yeah I use Alt Start for my proper game. I'm the type of person to restart a game a million times until I'm happy and the beginning was becoming rather boring. I can try, I don't think I've ever given manual install a go (unless I know where it's definately going!). I'm not even sure how to do it :O Because I'm too eager to play my game again I had begun to redownload and reinstall mods via NMM, but I'm happy to restart and begin at the start of the guide again if needed. But I have been wondering if it's okay to use both MO and NMM? Which do you prefer personally? I like MO however it seems like there's a lot to get used to but it also seems like it can benefit my games performance. NMM is great because it's easy to install and uninstall mods, but that's all really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 i use NMM havent given MO a go yet. i prefer NMM because i use it for several games MO isnt able to work with as far as i know. SkyUI is easy to install manually, its install guide on its mod page is quite good. though i found this it sounds like the same issue you are having: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/1451650-skyui-mod-organizer-nmm-cli-has-stopped-working/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdy3ar Posted February 17, 2015 Author Share Posted February 17, 2015 Half of me wants to give up and stick with NMM lol. Yeah I saw that last night. I tried deleting the FOMOD folder but WinRAR/ZIP wouldn't let me, apart from that the post didn't help me a hell of a lot. I think if I balls up my game again then I'll use MO and try installing SkyUI manually. Do you do anything other than just install the mods? Anything to improve game performance? I mean my PC is pretty good but laggy lately and I just want all the mods I love with as little lag as possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 well i dont have a great computer at the moment, but aside from limiting script heavy mods i dont do much to help my FPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
