What happened to NMM? Will Vortex just replace it when I install Vortex?

[LokiWolf90]

Or is Vortex something else entirely?

 

Was NMM discontinued or can I still use it? Cause I'd prefer to still use it if I can but the version on my comp no longer works.

Of course you can continue to use NMM. Although Nexus Mods has not supported NMM for the last couple of years (and this has been made known far and wide), there is a thriving community of NMM enthusiasts here: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/Nexus-Mod-Manager/releases

 

When you say your version of NMM no longer works, are you saying that you can no longer download mods with the "Mod Manager Download" button. If so, then use the "Manual Download" button. Manually downloading and installing a mod takes only a few extra mouse clicks. It's really quite easy. There's an NMM Wiki available if you need help with that.

I'm pretty sure i know what you're asking.

 

The answer is that if you wish to continue to use nmm, it will remain unchanged from here on out as it is no longer supported.

 

If you do not download vortex, nmm will still handle download buttons as far as i know.

 

If you wish to switch to vortex as your mod manager for the same or any other game, you will need to start modding from scratch. If you have mods downloaded already you can open the archive folder and drag and drop those mods into vortex and install them fronm there, you dont have to download them again.

Anticipating your next few questions...

 

1. You can download the newer version of NMM here, on github

 

2. Roll back to 0.16.08 of Vortex

 

3. This is how to associate Vortex with NXM links on NexusMods

Thanks for this question , the answers were what I was looking for . I didn't realize that NMM was actually discontinued , because I still got update notifications up to just maybe a month or so ago . I don't read forums normally unless there is an issue . Thank you .

But what happened to Vortex and where to get a mod that is similar to it?

Your post makes absolutely no sense.

 

Vortex is not a "mod" and this is the "Vortex" forum, so there's no need to ask what happened to Vortex, because it hasn't gone anywhere

He also necroed a three year old post. Not bad for his first time at bat.
