FOMOD issue with MO v0.9.3 *AND* Nexus download problems

[alogston]

I've installed Mod Organizer for the first time and am trying to add mods to a fresh install of FNV.  However, MO is not liking any FOMOD mod.  I'm getting the "no game data at top level" error, but there is no data directory to set, just the FOMOD.  The "plugin" referenced in the MO instructions is apparently not coming up, because all I can get from that point is the grayed-out install in the installed mods pane.  This is true of every FOMOD I try to install.  I've watched Gopher's videos, but he appears to be using a different version of MO and they didn't help with this issue.

 

Additionally, when I attempt to download a mod from Nexus using MO, I'm getting a "SHM error:" box and then failure.  Is this a problem at Nexus's end?  Because I can download manually with no problem.

Go into your settings then click on Nexus then use your username and password and check auto login then click on "associate with download manager" links theng go into the workaround tab then type in 0 .52 .2 under NMM version then hit ok. Once completed if you use FireFox - go to Tools then options then go down to nxm then choose the nxmhandler.exe under Mod Organizer's main directory.

First, under the "Workarounds" tab there is nothing asking for the NMM version.  All that's there is a box for Steam App ID and load mechanism.  Second, Mod Organizer's directory does not contain any nxmhandler.exe file.  Do I have a faulty install?

Did you follow this part of the STEP guide? https://wiki.step-project.com/Mod_Organizer#Recommendations

and did you install the installer version of 1.2.11?

I didn't realize there was a newer version of Mod Organizer because 0.93 was the version on Nexus.  I downloaded the most recent version from Sourceforge and it solved the problems.  Thanks!
