Mo wont recognize my newly downloaded dragonborn dlc

[biglost3601]

I recently got the time to finally download skyrims dragon born dlc and when steam notified me the download was complete I was ready to play ...................... Until I realized MO hasn't acknowledged the dlc and only Nexus mod manager acknowledged it after I reinstalled the manager

Ok, let me firstly say, using both MO and NMM is not supported here as they employ completely different methods of managing mods and doing so will likely cause many issues with your game.

But, that isn't really the issue here I think.

 

When you first installed MO there were a number of files generated and stored in the MO folder that defined the game as it existed at that point.

 

I'm not aware of an UI method of re-checking the installed vanilla game files other than removing that install and re-installing. So if there is and someone else mentions it, please follow their advice and not mine.

 

Anyway, it should be a simple case of removing the existing installation, but preserving your 'downloads' and 'mods' folders and your ModOrganizer.ini and re-installing MO again. That should then re-initialise those files and list all the vanilla DLC.

 

I'm not sure if anyone else has ever installed MO and then afterward loaded the DLC, you may have come across an issue that might need adjusting.

Whenever you update Skyrim through steam, for example verifying integrity of your Skyrim cache, you have to first run skyrim launcher through steam in order for MO to recognize the changes. This is needed for the windows registry.

I had to run launcher myself after i move the steam install out of c:\program files to c:\games and verified my cash before my profile could be loaded.
