cCheerSs Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Hello, I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place, but I want to know, is there any mod files that I can delete?Sitaution is, that I have about 25GB of mods in my Fallout 4 game, so there is .rar files in NMM folder of those mods and there is virtual install folder outside the NMM folder that contains unziped mods.I need some free space in my PC now, so maybe I can delete some of them? I want to keep something that if I will brake my game with the mods, I wouldn't need to download them again.Maybe I can keep the .rar files and delete everything from virtual install folder?

WastelandAssassin Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 the install folder is where the mods are installed toso if you aren't using these mods , you can technically delete these files (though it's probably best to delete them through NMM , so it will track the fact that you don't have these installed)you can also delete the rar archives of any mod you don't plan on usingand if you really need the space , you can also uninstall the game (or at the very least delete your save files , which could free a few GBs , depending on how many mods you are using , how many saves you have etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cCheerSs Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Oh.. I thought that mod files are inside my game's folder. So basically if I will delete .rar archives, if I will uninstall any mod, that I will want to reinstall later, I will need to download it again, or I will have those files somewhere else and I could install the mod? Hope I'm explaining myself understandable, english is not my native language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WastelandAssassin Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 from what I know , NMM no longer installs mods to your game's folder , it now uses a virtual folder (not really sure about that , as I use MO instead)the rar archives are the files you download from the Nexus , and these hold the files of the mods , and you install the mods from these archivesso if you delete these , you'll have to download the mods again if you wish to install theseI hope that answers your question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
