Mod Organizer 2 Development Status

[LePresidente]

Hi, Just thought i would place this here kinda to give feedback on what the current status is and Items that I simply don't have the skills to fix.

 

Latest Release:

 

2.0.8.3b - https://github.com/LePresidente/modorganizer/releases/tag/v2.0.8.3b

 

Items Requiring a C++ Developer (Things I can't fix):

 

These fixed themselves (Shrugs)

 

Profiles:

 

Custom profile locations are  currently not supported, Please either use portable or the %appdata% locations for now, I'm planning on adding a new option when creating the profiles called "Custom Location" that will create everything in the location and setup all the internal settings correctly.

 

Games Supported:

 

Currently due to time restraints I will be looking at only fixing the SkyrimSE and fallout4 bugs, Please use MO1 for the others if MO2 has issues with those games.

 

*Note on the silence up till now*

Sorry for the long delay there was work happening in the background, And I kinda went into radio silence since a few of us were stumped by the memory issues, Should be a Test release here soon as well once we are sure it will work as expected. I was against making any claims until now due to that people were comparing my "quick fixes" to Tannins work as a whole which is not fair to tannin's great contributions or myself for just getting things compiling in general. So I have waited for some sort of testing to take place and the project to get some momentum. 

 

Fixes coming in 2.1.0

 

1. Building with VS2015 and QT5.9.1
2. All memory bugs have gone by magic (I'm serious no idea how, Using Qt's Binary install has helped)
3. ESL support has been done by Helidoc and Silarn [WIP] 
4. Tutorials are back and working and updated (Thanks to Silarn)
5. Few null exceptions are caught now, So no more hard crashes due to firewall/network issues
6. sort button uses the new loot api that supports esl
7. A few SkyrimSE/Fallout4 fixes (e.g fallout4 mods don't deselect anymore after running loot)
8. Local profiles and saves are working, Though tester has notified us disabling local profiles doesn't work so still [WIP]
9.  

Issues in 2.1.0

 

No issues in latest test build

 

 

You can find the test builds on discord in the testers channel.

No wix installer yet though I have been slacking

Can't believe you guys are still making this thing better! Great work!

[Shadriss]

As a random question - many guides now make use of 'sections' of mods - IE, mods all in a particular vein. Is there any possibility of being able to create 'Headers' in the mod list as an actual object, as opposed to creating an empty mod instead? The latter works (sorta), but are really easy to lose in the lists, as they look just like any other mod.

[Guest]

Grouping of mods is coming.

[Shadriss]

Much yayness.

[parsafaramarzi]

i just migrated from mo1 to mo2 but my categories didnt migrate did i d smth wrong? cause if i didnt it would be a shame to have to recategorize my 700+ mods

[GSDFan]

If you created your own categories then you can look for categories.dat from the MO1 and copy it to MO2. Put it in whatever your base folder is and restart MO.

nope such method didnt work. also i just encountered another issue in which  bashed patch after being rebuilt doesnt go in overwrite and is not modified at all

bodyslide generated files also dont export is smth wrong with my instalation?

[Guest]

If BodySlide does not generate new files, it will overwrite the old ones, in case this is not the desired behavior bodyslide has the ability to output the generated meshes into a folder by pressing CTRL before pressing Batch Build.
