NMM keeps turning off all plugins and mods

[Chotak25]

Hello, I recently started playing and modding F4

 

Everything was going fairly well my first time through. I had several different mods working with F4SE, but none of my custom armors and outfit mods would work, particularly those requiring AWKCR, but also some UI mods.

After trying a suggestion under the post "NMM and F4SE" (sorry can't figure out how to link), I screwed up NMM ability to detect F4, so I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, and rescanned with NMM.

 

I started installing mods again, but noticed that now none of them would work. I found in the games mod area that the mods were turned off, so I enabled them. The game started working and with all the mods that hadn't worked the first time around working properly.

 

However, every time I start the game, the mods are turned off again in the games mod area. When I go and check NMM, it has unchecked all plugins, including the main game and all the DLC plugins.

This didn't happen during the first install of my game, so I don't understand why it is happening now.

 

Also, I have tried sorting plugins with LOOT, but it gives me an error about not being able to write to the "plugins.txt" file in my AppData folder. Not sure if this could be part of the problem or not, I didn't use LOOT during my first install of the game.

 

 

My Fallout4Custom.ini has the lines

[Archive]

bInvalidateOlderFiles=1

sResourceDataDirsFinal=

[Data]

iLocation X=0

iLocation Y=0

 

The Fallout4Prefs.ini also has the line

[Launcher]

uLastAspectRatio=1

bEnableFilesSelection=1

Don't know if this'll help, but I had the same problem abit ago, and what I did first was update NMM to the latest ( if it wasn't already), and when it starts if it asks you about a file having read-only on/off, let it change it. After I did this most of the mods were staying checked but the ones that were installed in-game (with the in-game mod browser), kept unchecking. To fix this I had to delete all of these mods ingame, and then find the normal version on this site (or whereever else they are) and install them through NMM aswell.

 

If NMM doesn't tell you about changing read only options, then go to the ini files (specifically the plugins one you said about) and check to see if it is read only. If it is, uncheck it then let Loot reorder the files again. It *should* work. (After this, it should be alright to make the file read-only again, if you'd like)

updating NMM seems to have fixed this, thanks
