Compatibility patch submission section with ratings and auto search

[Thane411]

Im having quite a bit of stress as a new user trying to get all the fantastic mods that are available together and i've thought of an idea that (is prob thought of already) might make it a lot less stressful for new users and encourage more mod use.

Its just having an automated tool like Boss go through your list of mods after you install them fresh and automatically submit a list of links to compatibility patches that fix problems with the mods youv'e installed, categorized by the amount of matching mods they claim to fix. The more they fix, the higher on the list. Or, even automatically download and apply compatibility patches that meet a certain rating requirement. That way, if someone has used 15 of the same mods your using and they've painstakingly gone through Tes5edit before you've had to, you can use his patch and possibly make and submit your own that covers even more mods.

I think a rating system would be in required to weed out lazily done work. Perhaps advising people to only rate after many many hours of play time or even after finishing a whole game.

The program could highlight the mods with green that are covered by compatibility patches and highlight mods red that aren't. And orange for mods that are unknowns that show potential conflicts.

Anyway, just some thoughts of a new user who might not know all of the challenges that would make for. In fact, definitely doesn't...
