Nexus Mod Manager

I need help, this is driving me nuts. Mod Manager will not add mods and yes I have it set for modding. It worked there for a while and now when I goto the mods tab, then add, then click on the mod, nothing and I mean nothing. I have to do it manually. Any ideas?

 

I am running windows 7 ultimate. And before anyone say anything, at the moment I don't want 10 I am completely satisfied with 7. But from what I hear I may be forced to go to 10. Thanks a lot Microsoft for dictating what I can do with my machine. Bunch of jerks. i HATE EM', but what can ya do!!(ok, i am done venting on that).

 

If you need any more info let me know.

My usual copy/paste is not quite the direct answer to your problem but it might be a good alternative.

----------------------------------------

The latest versions of NMM (from the last few months actually) are really bad about not properly installing and activating mods. Unfortunately they've also stopped supporting it while they work on a new one from scratch. I suggest either switching to a somewhat older, more stable version of NMM or switching to Mod Organizer 2 which has recently started receiving support again with a new developer.





Make sure you also followed the ini file instructions to enable mods, this also enables the game to be able to use loose files. It's easy to forget this step in a full re-install because you only have to do it once. I've forgotten myself. http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/Fallout_4_Mod_Installation


Mod Organizer 2 is pretty stable and works well, it's what I use. The only issues Mod Organizer has is that it is a little more prone to crash when using external apps like FO4Edit, LOOT, and the Creation Kit. Thankfully though it's more annoying than showstopping. The crashing usually happens when exiting one of those programs and thankfully the crashing seems to happen after whatever changes you made were saved. Even more thankfully, since Le Presidente took over development the exit crashing with other apps has significantly reduced.
