Snap n' Build is gone

[Medizy]

It appears that the mod author has removed it entirely, does anyone know what may have caused this?

Just a suggestion, in future be sure that when you d/l any mod files with NMM button you ALSO manually d/l those same files just for this kind of incident. Takes a bit of storage space and little work to manually install some mods but prevents any "lost mods" issues like this. You may never, hopefully, need to fix mods but this gives you that little insurance against this issue. I know its helped me with a few mods.

Doesn't NMM automatically keep a copy of the manually-downloaded mod version in its Mod folder? As long as you don't remove that folder you always have the original copies of the mods.

Yes, it does store a hard copy of all mods you have downloaded with NMM itself.

 

Open NMM and click here:

It will open the folder that the mods are kept in.

 

So long as you haven't selected the "Delete mod permanently" option, they will always be there.

True that, but its probably just then when you need the seperate copy itself.

Sorry but this is not true. When you D/L a file it will put the raw "Manual Download" version in that folder HOWEVER, if the mod author removes said mod then the raw file will also go away. I have all 5 of the SnB files in my personal backup but only 4 available in the abovementioned file. Main file Snap n Build is missing (after it was removed from NMM).

Yes as long as the original mod isn't removed like this one was. Then the file goes away.

Sorry, but how am I wrong? Opening that folder does take you to hard copies of all mods, that you can then copy/paste them into another folder for back-up. That's more what I was talking about.

 

Also, my SnB (one main file, of all packs together) is still there, even though it's been removed from Nexus. No manual install, only use NMM.
