ReeChan Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 So when I try to install mods with fomod files this error pops up. - An exception occured in the script - there's a lot of info in the 'see details' drop down but I can neither type it all nor post the screenshot but basically it's telling me that it doesn't have permission to do what I told it to even when running as admin unless I'm doing something wrong, I don't know, this is the first time I've had so many problems installing things with NMM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 What you describe is a common error when he game is installed in "Program Files". The best solution is to move the game to a different location on your hard drive. There are instructions available on Steam on how to do this. Also, NMM has never been the best choice for installing FoMods. Fallout Mod Manager (FOMM) is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeChan Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 Welp... FoMM did the trick, no crashing for any mod install, thank you for reminding me it existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Some people are finding that even after updating NMM to v0.65.4 they still get a "script exception" message when installing some mods (such as UIO and MCM). This seems to be resolved by this suggestion from user ElysianMod:* Run NMM as an "Administrator privileges" account.* Go to NMM "Settings".* Enable "Add Shell Extensions for Supported File Types".* Then restart NMM.(Supposedly this fix will be included in the next "unofficial" update after v0.65.4 to NMM on GitHub. Currently up to v0.65.6.) -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
