DamascusExile Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 A little while ago, a brownout caused my OS to crash on my computer and I had to reinstall everything (not sure how that happened, but I digress). Anyway, I reinstalled Skyrim SE and Fallout 4 as well as NMM with all my downloaded mods for both. Neither had any issues before the re-install, so I didn't expect any problems. I went to play Fallout and a page came up that said that the save file was dependent on mods that were no longer there. I went into NMM and Disabled and Re-Enabled each mod (and re-downloaded any that failed to re-enable) and then went back to Fallout and it worked like a charm. All the mods were working normally. I figured the same would have to be done for Skyrim which I decided to go back to today and so, I went into NMM and did just that. I also added a few new mods that have come out since I was last playing Skyrim. Once everything seemed in order, I tried to load my last save file and it gave me the same save file dependent on mods that aren't there page. I didn't understand why that would be the case, so I re-re-installed Skyrim and the same thing occurred. I then went into the Mod section of the game itself and found that there is nothing in the load order. All of the mods are selected and active in NMM, but for some reason aren't being recognized by the game itself even though I launch it through NMM. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of problem or know any tips I could try? I'm a bit befuddled. Thanks! (Sidenote: I did also download the Skyrim Script Extender from Steam which I did not previously have downloaded, I doubt this would affect it, but trying to provide a little more info.)

HadToRegister Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 If you reinstalled skyrim, and NMM then most likely the hardlinks from the mod folder to the data folder that NMM created, have been broken because the config files from NMM were overwritten with the new one when you installed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediStudley Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I suggest using Vortex. I like it a lot better than NMM...also the developer for NMM has moved over to working on Vortex. the only time i ran into this, I wound up reinstalling Skyrim and switching from NMM to Vortex. Your mod list is short so I'm thinking you can delete the hard link files and then reinstall just the mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your mod list is short so I'm thinking you can delete the hard link files and then reinstall just the mods.I installed Vortex and made sure all file locations were correct and it fixed the issue. Skyrim loaded immediately and seems to have no problems with the mods I have active. Now I just need to troubleshoot the newer mods that seem to have conflicts with the older ones... Haha. Thank you for the suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
