Nexus Mod Manager Guide by 'TheStigma'

----------------GENRAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE-----------------------
Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) is a tool that automates the installation of mods to Skyrim (and some other Bethesda games) - thus making the process a lot less intimidating for non-technical users. It also lets you easily keep track of what mods are installed and active at any given moment, so that your installation does not become messy (and potentially buggy) from an accumulation of half-installed mods and such. Since version 0.12.11 I feel this tool is now a better option for most users to install mods as the program is now reasonably stable for the most part. The writer of this guide is not part of the development team - nor affiliated with the mod manager author or Skyrimnexus.com (check the linked download page if you want to check the official information available).
Step1: Download Nexus mod manager using the following link:
http://www.skyrimnex..ent/modmanager/
If you have downloaded this program earlier - make sure that it is it up to date. Especially versions before 0.12.11 will tend to crash a lot and is thus not recommended. The program has an in-built update check (and button to check manually). Use this to update if you have an earlier version or simply download the latest version (0.12.11 at the time of writing, 29nov. 2011) from the link above. Development is on-going so you are generally advised to update whenever the mod manager detects a new version (you will get prompted with on-screen instructions when the program automatically detects an update).
Step2: Install the program normally as you would any other program. You can use the default installation options if you are unsure about anything it asks you during installation.
Step3: After installation - run the program (using default installation you will have a new program icon on your desktop you can use to start it). You will be asked at startup what game it is supposed to manage for you. Choose Skyrim obviously.
Step4: Actually using the program to install mods:
- When first starting the program you will be prompted to log in with your Nexus account. If you don't have one just sign up for a free one from the website:
http://www.skyrimnexus.com/index.php
- You may also be prompted (on first running of the program) to help the program find the Skyrim installation directory. If needed, simply browse to the main directory you installed Skyrim to. Usually this will be automatically detected however, and if this is the case this step is skipped.
- The program menus should now have loaded up. Let's get some mods.
Now you should go find a mod from skyrimnexus.com you want to install.
Just as an example: http://www.skyrimnex../file.php?id=30
You will notice there is a button called 'download with manager'
(note that in mods where you have options of variations of the mod you can usually select a specific mod package by first clicking 'download' to get more download options).
press that - and the mod will download in nexus mod manager (under the 'download manager' tab)
It will remain there as long as it is downloading - but after it is done it will show up under the 'mod' tab
The mod will now be ready to install.
- Once you have one or more mods downloaded and ready to install (visible under the 'mods' tab) you can simply select one from the menu and press the button for activating the mod (hover mouse over the buttons for descriptions for each). The mod manager will handle the rest. You will notice there is also of course a button for disabling a mod. Now you have an easy overview of all the mods you have installed and you can enable and disable them with the click of a button. Be sure to exit Skyrim before adding or removing mods obviously.
- That's it basically. You can now just run the game. If you are using an alternative executable (such as the 4GB Skyrim mod) you should run that .exe directly rather than using the in-built 'run skyrim' button - as I suspect this button just runs the default .exe directly.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Exceptions and other stuff you should be aware of:
- Some mods will not be compatible. That is to say if you try to install 2 mods that both alter the same files then there will be a conflict. The mod manager does not directly take this into account and give you a warning at this stage so you will have to be aware of this yourself. If you try to install a mod that alters files that another mod already altered you will get a prompt that asks you if you want to overwrite the files or not. If this happens you should usually answer no, and then disable the mod you just tried to install afterwards so that all the other non-conflicting files are also removed. If you want this mod then you will have to first deactivate the conflicting mod (the mod manager will tell you which mod had conflicting files) before installing the other one.
- There is one notable exception to the conflicts mentioned above. Many mods include a readme.txt which are just instructions - so if that is the only conflicting file then you can overwrite (or not overwrite) when you install other mods without it causing a problem. The readme.txt is not actually used by the game. If you install several mods this will happen a lot - so don't be afraid to overwrite the file as long as it is just readme.txt (or a similar name that indicates it is only an instruction).
- In a few cases you will want to install more mods that have file conflicts anyway. Usually you should only try this with mods that don't alter how the game actually works - ie. usually texture mods. If you do this then you need to pay attention to the sequence in which you activate the mods - because the latter ones will replace conflicting files from the previous ones. As said you should usually only try this with texture mods or similar since these mods will not mess up your game if you do something wrong when trying to mix together mods (it just won't look as you wanted it to). Mixing functional mods in this manner however could have disastrous consequences and should be strictly avoided.
- Note that in a few cases there are mods that are actually several mods all in one. This may be because the mod has optional files you can install to tweak how it works for example (such as 'Enhanced Blood Textures' which has an optional addon 'blurry screen blood' for example - or 'Enhanced Night Skyrim' where you actually choose one file package for altering the stars, and one for altering the galaxy and you are free to mix. In these cases when you install more than one such 'part' from a mod - the mod manager will say that you already have the mod installed and will ask you if you want to update it. It is usually suggested that you answer 'no' in these cases so that each mod-part will show up as a seperate mod (making it easier to enable/disable bits as you wish). If you choose 'yes' then it just merges the second part you installed into the first part so it only shows up as a single mod in the list. This works too - but is less convenient if you wanted to chance any of these optional files later to something else - ebcause you would have to deavtive the whole thing and redownload/install all the separate parts including the ones you didn't want to swap out.
- A few mods require one extra step. After installing, some of them will add an extra module file under the 'plugins' tab. You will need to tick that box for the corresponding mod you want to run. Note that disabling a mod should remove the plugin - so generally you should just make sure to have all the plugins ticked on that page. If you want to disable a mod then it is better to do that via the disable function on the 'mods' tab. This keeps it nice and tidy.
- The vast majority of mods will install correctly via the mod manager. A few however simply don't do anything when you activate them. I am not exactly sure of why - but likely this is just some missing instructions in the file package and can probably be updated to work if the mod author is notified. If you are in doubt if something is installed correctly you can simply check the file package and see where the files in it are supposed to go (by looking at the file structure in the compressed file) - then activate the mod - and check in your skyrim folder afterwards if the files were put in where you expected them to go. Mods that for whatever reason don't install correctly don't seem to do anything at all and are thus not very likely to cause any problems at least. You will just have to manually install these for the time being (and perhaps notify the mod author to rectify the problem in future updates so it can support automatic installation).
- The mod manager checks for new versions of mods automatically and notifies you (you get a yellow warning icon next to outdated mods). This system seems to essentially work - but be aware that you should not trust this system blindly yet. The problem seems to be that a lot of the mod authors seem to not be familiar with the system yet and either forget to update the online version status, or mark new versions wrongly. Therefore it can happen that you get weird situations like mod manager saying that you have version 1.2 installed and that the newest version is version 1.0 (the author hasn't remembered to update his version number on the mod page). Just be aware of the problem in the case of some mode - notify the mod author to fix it - and use a little bit of common sense and you should not end up too confused. Likely this problem will diminish with time as serious mod authors become more familiar with how the system works.

• Dec 19, 2017  Nexus Mods is a very popular resource for PC gamers looking to download and install mods to make changes to or enhance their experience in.
• The NMM helps the user acquire mods by acting as a download manager for the Nexus Forums and File Pages(the Nexus). If a mod is not available anymore on Nexus, of course. Nexus displays only folders that contain one or more mods. More on that later.
• The Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) is a free and open source piece of software that allows you to download, install, update and manage your files through an easy to use interface.
• Manual only install mods - posted in Skyrim Mod Talk: I just realized theres some manual install only mods on Nexus. In the upper right corner theres only an option for download. The confusing part is that when I go to the files section of the mod theres an option to download it with NMM. This is really troubling because I have dozens of mods where a couple probably arent working due to me not.

History[edit]

Nexus Mods was founded by Robin Scott and a friend in August 2001 as a fan site for the Bethesda Softworks game The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind under the name of Morrowind Chronicles.^[1] After the success of Morrowind Chronicles, Scott and the friend he was working alongside founded a company by the name of GamingSource and created the website TESSource, which allowed users to upload their modifications and content for games in The Elder Scrolls video game series. Scott soon became tired with the revenue of the websites being split when he was operating the websites by himself, and made the decision to break away from TESSource in 2007 and founded his own website under the name of TESNexus. Scott made use of the TESSource website with his new venture. This resulted in more than 200 additional games being supported by early 2017.^{[failed verification][3]}

As of January 2013, Nexus Mods had a reported five million users.^[6] Scott indicated in 2013 that the Nexus sites would remain free of corporate investment in the foreseeable future, also avoiding direct ads. Revenue instead came from premium memberships, with the site otherwise free.^[7] As of 2014, it was one of the largest gaming modification websites on the web, with over 971 million downloads since its initial launch, and a member count of more than 8 million registered users.^[2]

In November 2015, Nexus Mods announced that due to the release of Fallout 4, the website had over ten million registered members. In December,^[6] the website reported a possible security breach of account names, and recommended that its members change their passwords.^[6][8] Financial information was not breached, as the website uses PayPal for all transactions.^[9]

Notable mods[edit]

Mods hosted on the site can change games in a number of ways, from adding a first-person perspective^[10] to adding fully developed worldspaces with voice-acted quests.^[11] Mods for The Witcher have been built for improving immersion,^[12] and Nexus Mods is highly noted for its support of the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and is often regarded as the largest website supporting modifications for games in The Elder Scrolls series of games, with sites like PC Gamer and Kotaku referencing Nexus in multiple articles regarding modifications for The Elder Scrolls series.^[13][14]

The website's hosting and publication of various mods has been covered in the gaming and computer press.^[5] In 2016, Forbes praised the 'Alternate Start - Live Another Life' mod posted to Nexus for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Special Edition in a feature article.^[15] In January 2017, a Fallout 4 mod on Nexus Mods was covered in the Daily Express,^[5] with other Fallout 4 mods reported on by WWG,^[16]Paste Magazine,^[17] the Christian Times,^[18] and PC Gamer.^[19][20]

Features[edit]

Nexus Mods requires users to register before uploading any files or downloading files over a certain file-size limit.^[2] User accounts integrate across all of the available sites, meaning a user only needs one account to make use of all of the Nexus websites. Each account and file page is also integrated with the Nexus Forums.^{[citation needed]}

The website gives users the ability to:^{[citation needed]}

• Upload files to their modification's webpage
• Create and display an information page about their modification
• Upload images of their modification
• Comment on file pages
• Browse categories to find modifications for their games
• Search for a specific modification for their games

In June 2016, wide-ranging theft of NexusMods mods for other corporate mod websites was noted in the press, with Nexus owner Robin Scott (Dark0ne) criticizing Bethesda's lack of response to the issue.^[21] That month, Nexus added an extra permissions system to the website so stolen mods on other websites were easier to see. Although there was already an extensive permissions system for mods, the addition to the system for console modding allowed users to select what their intent for the mod was in terms of use, and where they would allow it to be available. It also allowed 'console players to search the Nexus system for mods they can find via their console's Bethesda.net browser if they like the look of them.'^[22]

Supported games[edit]

The Nexus Mods network supported 838 games as of December 2019, and features a single forum and a wiki for site and mod-related topics.^[4] The main Nexus Mods web page lists the various games for which mods are available, along with the number of files, authors and downloads. As of December 2019, games with the most mods hosted were:

Recently, the Nexus Mods site expanded to serve as a host for mod files for any modifiable PC game.

Nexus Mod Manager[edit]

Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) is an open-source program associated with Nexus Mods^[23] available for the Microsoft Windows platform that automates the download and installation of mods for seventeen games as of January 2015, among them The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Fallout 3.^[24] Advantages of using NMM over manual mod installation include easy organization, installation, and uninstallation of mods. According to the Nexus site, NMM 'integrates with the Nexus sites to provide you with a fast, efficient, and much less hassled modding experience.'^[25]

Nexus Mod Manager has since been replaced by Vortex, the official Nexus Mods mod manager with improved mod handling and a more modern interface.
