!!!YOU MUST TO PREPARE!!!

 

Use Your Resources

 

Cut down on time and effort.

 

You likely have a phone or a device that holds an SD Card. If you have something like that, you have the option to store to those cards. A 32 GB SD Card can most definitely hold all of your files.

 

If you have other devices that are capable of connecting to your computer via USB á la Flash Drives, chances are you can save some major time and data.

 

Make this installment the cleanest.

 

If for some future reason, you just need to revert to the vanilla state (original product) of a game, before you begin anything that initiates updates, use a file unpacker (Google WinZip/WinRar) to compress the vanilla state into a small zip file somewhere in a safe spot so it won't be spotted by the processes mistakenly (usually in the same directory as the parent folder).

 

You'll want to defrag your computer before proceeding with updates, that way nothing behind your game gets put on top of it.

 

Become a gaming librarian.

 

No, you don't need glasses and pig-tails. All you need is your browsing history. Simply open the page through your browser, and run a search for all related material that you've browsed. You can easily move those bookmarks to a bookmark folder for easier future reference.

 

Take the time to divine.

 

It's your PC

 

Take care of it. Make its unending job easier. Create proper directories and indexes for all of your of the games resources. Try not to leave any updates, mods, and downloads relating to the content far from the installation folder. You may notice things such as start-up speeds and subtle performance increases the next time around. Maintenance will become easier as well!

 

!!Prepare and Save Time!!

Note: You will have to run Fore's generator tool GenerateFNISforUsers.exe (part of FNIS Behavior) every time you have installed or uninstalled FNIS, or an FNIS based mod. In addition, when you uninstall a mod that uses FNIS Creatures, you first have press the "De-Install Creatures" button, before you run the "Update FNIS Behaviors"
