cloudpersonn Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) Hello, Unsure if this is the right subforum for this. Sorry if it's not. Regardless, I'd like to backup FNV with all mods, saves and the ENB I've got, but I'm unsure how. (eg: what files to backup) Could someone help me out with this? btw, I plan to stick the backup in cloud storage.

dubiousintent Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Basically you just want to copy the installed game folder (<exclude the path to>\"Fallout New Vegas") and all the subfolders. The save game files, however ,are located in the "C:\Users\<youraccountname>\Documents\My Games\FalloutNV" folder, along with the INI files. Just copy that entire subfolder (FalloutNV) and any subfolders as well. Be advised it is going to take several 10s of GB of storage, depending upon the number of mods you have installed and save game files. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(eg: C:\Games\Nexus Mod Manager\FalloutNV\) Edited January 29, 2021 by cloudpersonn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Nope. Not for the game. NMM (or any mod manager for that manner) is a completely separate install. The information about the game is "configuration data" it stores. You can back it up separately in a similar manner, but as I don't use NMM I have no idea where the files it uses are located. Starting place would be the folder where it is installed and then the documentation. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
