- Random thoughts about the utility:
- What an user usually do when following a mod guide is this:
- Read instructions from Guide
- Go to Nexus' page of requiered mods
- If MO is used for downloading the mods
- Then
- The mod files and the .meta are stored in the MO's Download folder
- Else
- Only the mod files are stored in a harddrive folder
- Now you have the following possible outcomes for the files downloaded:
- 1. Mod files with the original name or a different name
- 2. .meta files with info or no .meta files
- Mod author provides the template with the required mods for download
- The APP check in the user download directory to check if the required mods are downloaded
- The APP tells the user what mods are missing
- Now the user starts installing the mods according to the guide.
- The user chooses the mod installer and do the procces, here the user should use the suggested name for the mod in the guide
- but sometime the user use another name.
- The APP check in the user MO's mods folder the installed mods and check the required mods installed.
- The APP will tell the user what mods are missing for installation and if any mod is installed different to the guide.
- The user usually runs LOOT for plugin sorting, however sometimes specific plugin order is required.
- The APP check in the user MO's profile folder for the avaliable plugins and loadorder.
- The APP will tell the user what plugins are missing and ideally from what MOD and also checks the order and inform the user what is different from the guide.
- The APP also could check for integrity of the whole or partial installation using a calculated HASH for the MODs installed.
- That way, one can check if the mods were installed exactly like the guide instructed.
