Fores New Idles help

[GothicKitty]

It fixed the same issue for me, I had done what I had done on the 5.0.2 version by adding a shortcut to the desktop causing that error. I moved it back into the folder suggested and it worked. Thanks for this post about that.

I don't use NMM, I use Mod Manager instead, but I had to set up the generator to run through Mod Manager. I'm thinking your issue might be the same. It's like the game won't recognize Fores New Idles -- the mod AND the generator thing -- unless everything is run through whatever manager you're using (NMM or Mod Manager).

 

Gopher has some videos that explains all this. I know, I know, I hate watching videos too, especially when the person spends fifteen minutes going, "Umm, I can't remember. Maybe if I...no, wait...hang on...that's not it...ummmmm"

 

Ugh.

 

Gopher's videos aren't like that. They are precise, concise, and very professional. He's on YouTube somewhere around here:

Sorry, I can't remember which specific video it is that explains running Fores New Idles through whatever manager you're using.

 

Edit: I think it's this video:

 

 

Like I said, it explains how to run the generator through Mod Manager, not NMM, but the basic premise is the same.

 

Edit AGAIN! This video here is more geared toward NMM. I haven't watched it, but it might be of use:

If you're using a mod manager like NMM or MO, in order to make any alteration to C:\Program Files\ subdirectories, you must run the manager as Administrator. This solves the issue for every single mod that the manager calls. If you're brave and install your mods manually, you have to run FNIS as Administrator for it to work properly. And don't forget that FNIS generates files you should assemble as a new mod in MO for it to actually work.

 

Edit: If you have space, I'd recommend making a copy of your vanilla instalation so that the Steam Launcher doesn't mess with your modifications later. And if you do so, I'd also recommend not putting it in a protected directory, like C:\SkyrimLE or something like that.
