Nexus Mod Manager - Setup problem

Recommended Posts

Just re-installed DA:O for some playthroughs... went to open up NMM, it saw that DA was there, but goes into setup before being able to activate mods. I have all my games installed on F:/ because my SSD is on C:/ For the virtual install, it won't let me get past when directed to F:/ drive saying it's expected to be on C:/. I ran in admin mode, and the last option still says it expects the folder to be on C:/... Dragon Age is not installed on my C: Drive... any idea how to solve this, or am I going to have to use a DA specific mod manager or push mods the old fashioned way?

Question: Did NMM correctly identify your installation drive and path? Asking because if so, it seems strange that NMM would recognize the non-standard install for one part of the configuration, then fail to recognize it for the other.

 

But as very, very few mods for DAO are placed anywhere except the player's own "\Bioware\Dragon Age\packages\core\override" folder, (I believe DA-Redisgned has a few such files, as did an early version of JB3, and of course the single-player expansion mods) you could simply let NMM use its default location for that option and install the special cases manually.

 

Yeah, it's a work around. Yeah, the NMM coders should fix it. Maybe...

It's one mechanism to help prevent the NMM from working with some of the most common pirate versions of games.

For me it identified it correctly at first but screwed up the path in the setup. It insisted that it was in C (my SSD), when it correctly identified it in D.

 

While Dragon Age is relatively easy to mod, I still prefer NMM just as a luxury. In general just a lot less copy pasting and DAUpdater.

@ahriman87; Yourt issue should be discussed over on the NMM "Open beta feedback" forum since it's not an issue with DA itself. But I'm planning on doing a clean install of the latest version of NMM on my own machine this weekend and I'll see if that tells me anything.
