Hey, I'm a little uncertain about Mod Organizer. I'm sure someone else has already asked, but I can't Find the questions and/or answers. Will there be some way to keep the mods for Skyrim and Skyrim Special Edition seperate? Will you be able to launch Skyrims Special Editions's script extender from Mod Organizer apart form SKSE? Will I need to reinstall Mod Organizer? Hopefully someone can help me clear up some confusion on this. BTW, I'm super pumped up for the release in two days!! :happy:

Later, once things are established, I'll probably remove my old game.

At the moment Mod organizer wont work at all with SSE, a game plugin for SSE to work with modorganizer is required. As Tannin is no longer developing MO this wont happen soon unless he kindly does it, someone else does or some hack to fool MO to use SSE is devised. Edited October 27, 2016 by masc

The game is now 64-bit, so even with a plugin MO won't work for SSE. MO2 might work once updated, but be very buggy. However it probably won't be updated. Edited October 27, 2016 by ousnius

Will we need to launch scan for all our games and be the same as Fallout 4 and Skyrim (as in very different page altogether)
or more of a Launch SKSE vs Launch Skyrim kindda deal? (same page but different launcher)

phalen wrote: I would like to know this as well, seeing as the game will unlock tomorrow, and I would already like to grab a few mods ahead of time. currently it does not give an option to scan for SE (0.63.1).

I know you guys are working on the new mod manager, but unless it launches by tomorrow, would you not need to do a quick updated for SE?

Yeah, MO2 is what we need but unfortunately that's not going to happen. It looks like we MO users will have to switch over to NMM or just do it manually. Make sure you squirrel away a backup copy of the pristine installation before trying to add any mods to it.

Welp - that settles it for me - no MO = not worth the switch ... for now anyways. Until NMM can handle resource priorities better SSE may as well not exist!

I wouldn't go that far. I love Skyrim more than I love MO. A 64-bit DX11 version of Skyrim is not something I'm willing to wash my hands of. I'll get used to whatever tools are available to make it work.

Fair play to you GRC and enjoy!

But the advantages of a 64-bit version - personally - do not even come close to swaying me back to the current version of NMM.

My setup is gorgeous, stable and buttery for hours on end - and I know EXACTLY how I made it that way - with the help of MO. I also remember the constant headaches of mod builds prior to MO coming on the scene - and honestly - this upgrade would really be a downgrade for my own experience if I had to settle for NMM.

This should clarify.
