If configured correctly, it will load up your full load order into LOOT from the virtual file system.

#How to update mod organizer 2 install

For your LOOT issues, install LOOT into MO as a managed helper program that you can start as needed. Or everything should run through MO in an optimal setup, your choice of course if you want to use it fully. It's an entire mod system for dealing with modding the game, everything runs thru MO once you commit to using it. You said in your opening post 'as if my entire Skyrim is in MO's iron grip' - that's kind of the point to using MO.

#How to update mod organizer 2 zip file

Let MO manage your files by installing them from a 7z or zip file and they'll work as they always have but with the added benefit of conflict detection so you'll know if you have mod override issues. So it can certainly be done but it kind of defeats the purpose if you choose to still use loose files. If you don't load a mod as a managed mod in MO, it won't detect any conflicts in a mod for files, meaning you won't be able to simply choose winnners/losers of the mod fight by reordering mods as some mods won't be managed. The problem lies when you have unmanaged files in MO that the program can't index or control - using loose files means you lose out on one of the primary advantages of MO - easy conflict detection. You can use loose files with MO and they'll work fine in the sense that both the game and MO will load the files into your game.

I don't know if this new LOOT simply displays that the Update.esm is dirty no matter its condition or whether it actually reads the plugin to see whether it's dirty or not, but right now it says Update.esm is dirty despite the fact that I have indeed cleaned it. For example, I've never seen the Update.esm disappear, and even after I did the workaround as explained, LOOT doesn't seem to pick it up. I'm basically scared because I couldn't see what it's doing and its results, and all the tools aside from TES5EDIT are new to me. I didn't know MO would go so far as using a virtual file system. There was a time when I had to use the then-buggy TESVGECKO to get something done, then Wrye Bash was ported to Skyrim and things were infinitely easier, I assumed that MO is a natural progression.

I understand that plenty of progress have been made in Skyrim modding front while I wasn't active, and I thought this Mod Organizer thing would work better for me in the long run if I can understand how to use it, considering the plethora of features it has that are clearly made to make modding Skyrim easier, such as conveniently launching LOOT and TES5EDIT, NMM didn't have that (whatever version I last used).

Open it and check that the 'Have MO manage archives' is activated. In the right panel of MO there's a tab named Archives.

Add this package into the MO's downloads (copy it to the directory you have chosen in MO's setting or open the Downloads tab in MO and drag and drop the package there).

#How to update mod organizer 2 manual

I use my own mods and they need manual loose files overwrite, how do I do that with MO? It feels wrong, as if my entire Skyrim is in MO's iron grip. STEP warns that TES5EDIT will be unable to see anything if I don't run it from MO. What about the DLC masters? How do I clean them? LOOT asked me to clean them but the STEP guide provides no information about the DLC masters. That's not how it worked back when I manually use TES5EDIT without passing Mod Organizer, the cleaned master simply sits there chilling without any workaround. The guide does say that I could create a mod in MO that will overwrite the update.esm (or so it says) but I'm feeling mighty uncomfortable. I'm currently at 'clean your masters' phase and I'm incredibly confused at this step:ДЄnd sure enough, it disappeared. Since STEP recommends using Mod Organizer, I rolled with it. I'm currently starting fresh and look to STEP project because I've heard good things about them.
