I need help with nexus mods cause my game is really starting to piss me off with it saying stuff isnt there when it is

You'll need to provide a lot more information than that. What is saying what is missing, just for starters. Usually I would take this to me that you're missing masters and if you insist the master is there then it's usually load order related. But that's just a wild swing given the complete lack of information provided.

There are a few things that we need to try and help.

1. MO2 or Vortex
2. Have you performed a clean install since this started happening?
3. What is your current load order?
4. What is saying "stuff isnt there"?
5. What "stuff" is it looking for

Cool story bruh but how about coughing up some useful information instead of complaining about how pissed off you are? Two other people here have posted in a clear and concise manner the type of info you need to supply if you're expecting to get any real help.

So how about it?

so i did on someone elses comment if you can see it dont need to be a ♥♥♥♥ about it

[SuperSledgeNY]

One of the folks here asked you 5 questions, you answered ONE. If you don't know what a "load order" is, find out. Use Google, it's there for a reason. If you don't know "how that stuff works", start learning by reading some tutorials and watching some videos on how to properly add mods to your game.

If you're not going to supply some info that we can use to help you, then yeah, I can be a ♥♥♥♥ all I want.

instructions were unclear. Dialog terminating.

I read your first and second message, all i understood is you installrd some mods and you didnt see them in the game or you arent sure if they are really loaded.

You need to talk clearly if you wanna get help. Describe the problem in details. I know z-gen is talking with a few words and expecting to get understood.. but as you see, this is only causing conflicts and unnecessary message traffic.

what makes you think im genz? im just not good at explainings stuff

my app that im using for the mods is vortex and my mods arent showing up cause im missing the ESM even tho i have them in my folder, thats my problem what else is it that i need to explain?

[joefitts63]

All right. Here are some explicit instructions for you. Fire up Vortex. In the left hand column, under the MODS section, click on PLUGINS. This will give you a list of all your active plugins. Near the middle of the headers is one called LOAD ORDER. Click on that and it will sort the list by load order. Then list each name in the second column in the order they appear in the list. That will provide your load order so someone might be able to help you.

i did answer the questions i was asked you just don't see it that way and don't you think i've looked it up? multiple youtube videos went and never explain any situation that may occur like my situation cause it doesn't happen enough times to the people making the video for them to cover it, i'm never told that certain mods need to be in a certain load order, so no you don't need to be an ass about it you can calmly ask instead of going off on someone who doesn't seem to understand and be nice but apparently your brain lacks the function of sympathy for others so you chose to be a jackass and not help, all i'm asking is for some help and people are calling me stupid for not putting enough info into the description, instead you have to be a jackass, so if you want to help, help, if you don't have anything nice to say then shut the ♥♥♥♥ up and don't say anything okay? so if you aint gonna help me in a friendly manner don't respond back to me

Resorting to personal attacks now? I guess that's actually what you're good at because your post attacking me is the most you've said in this entire thread. If you think I've been a jackass, then so be it. I've been called worse by much better people than the likes of you, so have fun, good luck and good riddance.

everyone cool your jets. op is already frustrated with there modding and clearly has some research to do about how modding works.

load order is the order that your mod file are loading into the game this is important. for example:

say you have 2 mods. Mod1 and Mod2. Mod2 has a dependency to Mod1 which means in need info from Mod1. if Mod2 is loaded first then when it tries to look for the information that it needs from Mod1 then it will cause errors as the information from Mod1 hasn't been loaded yet.

not all mod dependencies need to be loaded before the given mod but sometimes its required. also remember that your plugins also need to be enabled.

OP came in looking for a "fix everything button" and someone to point them to it when what they need is a full length tutorial which are widely available. The forum sticky has info, the steam guides has info, Google/youtube has video tutorials, etc. etc.

The topic post is absolutely devoid of anything anyone could use to help them and 10 posts later the OP still hasn't given us anything we could readily assist with.

Best I can tell is Vortex is saying something isn't installed when they're reasonably sure it is. Perhaps Vortex is asking for a prerequisite mod or compatibility patch and OP is confusing it with the mod they're installing. This is the kind of stuff you would use screenshots and detailed information for.

Don't use NMM. Use Vortex. It's simpler, easier, and smarter than NMM.

Since it's looking for the .7z that means it's looking for the packaged/zipped file, not the extracted folder. It would be in a staging location, like where you downloaded your mods to or where NMM downloaded them to--not in your Fallout 4 folder.

Then NMM would have to be told to install that .7z and it won't like if you move it. This is a process that Vortex makes as easy as dragging the file over to it's window and dropping it. Vortex makes it's own staging folder from the files letting you delete whatever you download if you want.
