Switching TO mod organizer FROM Wrye Bash

[Nariya]

I've basically gone through the step guide using wyre bash + downloaded several other mods and I was wondering is it possible to import that specific load order/ini tweaks ect. from wyre bash to mod organizer? Or do i have to completely uninstall the mods from wyre bash and redo the STEP guide for a profile in mod organizer?

There is NO WB importer. You do have to reinstall the mods in MO but you can do that in phases. Post #1545 of the Nexus MO forum describes this. Its explained for NMM but the pirnciple applies to WB.

 

What I recommend is doing the following:

• Copy the downloaded mods (zip files) to the /downloads directory.
• Start MO
• Perform a 'Query Info' on all of the files in the downloads section in the right pane.
• Install the mods.
• Optionally set the correct priority in the left pane.

The order of installing the mods is NOT important as this can be changed on the fly. A good article by humbye is "Setting the mod priority you want".

 

Should you decide to switch please do watch the videos made by Bridger and Deathneko11. Time spend very well. For bridger's video see the video section of MO on the nexus. Deathneko's ones can be found here in this forum. Also the MO wiki which is being fleshed out atm is very useful.

 

Welcome on board. If you have more questions feel free to ask them.

Alright thanks for the help. I should probably also reset my ini files too.

MO also has the ability for INI tweak files. See the advanced tab in the MO wiki, section "Mod specific ini tweaks". Good luck. I suggest migrating a few mods first, test and when you feel comfortable then to do the rest in phases.

The article "Migrating from Wrye Bash to Mod Organizer" has been added to the MO wiki in the advanced tab.
