Armor mods invisible on player.

[Nova]

Exactly what the title says, absolutely no armor mods appear, every other mod i have works, just not armor mods.
I had this problem and made a post about it like a year ago and no one could help me, im hoping someone can now.
Since then i had stopped playing, came back months later, did a full playthrough with no problems, left to play other games again, came back and now the problem is back and i cant figure out why.

We need more information.
- Have you enabled modding, so that archive settings are set in INI-file?
- Which sort of armor isn't appearing. Is it something like CBBE/BodySlide?

[Nova]

Dunno about that first one.
Second one, literally no modded armor is appearing, from any mod, all vanilla armors work fine but anything that comes from a mod isnt.

[Nova]

And i do have CBBE installed.

See information about INI-files from here. It is the first marked chapter.

If you believe that CBBE gear isn't showing, then run BatchBuild on BodySlide for both body and gear.

[Nova]

I just realized none of my mods even require CBBE, should i just uninstall it?

[Ilja]

CBBE comes with vanilla conversions for all armor. If you want to use it, then you need to Batch Build all through BodySlide for female preset you want to use.

Which means that you already have all the vanilla content, if you want to use it.

Otherwise you can give up from CBBE.

You need to preform a archive invalidation google it

[Nova]

I uninstalled CBBE
did the archive invalidation
and sorted everything with LOOT
and nothing changed.

What are the body the armour mod is for? Ie you need cbbe for cbbe armours or atomic beauty for AB armour mods you can't interchange, if you using generic body then the mod won't show

[Nova]

The mod doesnt say anything about needing a body mod like CBBE.
Im trying to use the mercenary pack but other armor mods also arent working.

[Ilja]

Which mod manager you are using?

[Nova]

Nexus.

[Ilja]

By "Nexus" I presume you mean the Nexus Mod Manager (NMM)?

It is bugged and no longer officially supported by anyone. It has a chance of installing files in to wrong folders, or just not installing them at all.

There is a GitHub page, where some members of the community still update NMM. Have you picked the most up to date version from there? Otherwise you could try making manual installation for armors and see if that solves the problem.

Though my honest recommendation would be to kick NMM in to garbage bin and move to either Mod Organizer 2 or Vortex.

MO2 is stable.
Vortex is the official replacement for NMM, but still in open alpha testing.

[Nova]

So I got vortex and I immediately had a problem with it, it won't let me log in, I press login and it takes me to the website, where it already logged in, and it won't log me in on the app.

[Ilja]

Do you have red round object at top right corner of the screen? It should take you to page, where you can click "Authorize" button. This will create Vortex login.
