This might be a dumb question and i probably just messed something up on my end, but for some reason after i got ME3Tweaks set up and working, now when ever i download ANY mod that isn't even mass effect related (like fallout 4 mods for example), It opens the ME3Tweaks manager instead of NMM community edition which i have been using for the last two years prior. Not sure what i could have messed up but I obviously did something. I have tried doing different things such as un-linking ME3T from nexus mods, but for some reason even those aren't working.
Any suggestions? Never mind I figured it out, apparently when I authorized ME3T on nexus it somehow removed authorization for NMM-CE, just had to re-authorize it.
Other mod manager's (such as Vortex) automatically register themselves on boot. Unfortunately this means I have to do the same or mine will pretty much never work.
You can setup forwarding to your apps for games by going to the Nexus integration in the top right and then editing the handler for specific apps. When you select the exe of another manager, it will typically auto populate with what you need, as I looked through other managers to see what they needed to be called with to handle a nexus download.
You can also turn this feature off in Mod Manager settings.
you probably checked your browser's checkbox to "always use". you are alternating between two ways to handle the link, so don't check that. go into your file associations/defaults menu inside your browser's options, find the one set for mod manager, and delete the saved answer so it has to ask you next time. then don't check the box next time, just say yes whenever it asks you, or swap to nexus if that's what you're using that time. at least, that's what i would think is happening, not the mod dev. i just got off my it job and came here to see if i need to launch the game from modmanager when i saw your comment haha
I just wanted to leave a quick comment of appreciation for your work - I just updated a bunch of MELE mods and thanks to your mod manager, I was done so much quicker than I expected. Thank you so much for developing and constantly updating it!
Hey man, I don't really have any questions. Just wanted to say how much I admire the frequency in which you answered people's question about their issues, and how even in 2024 there was an update for this mod. So I hope you got satisfaction out of helping all sorts of people with this, and wish the best for you.
P.S.: I am just now getting into modding and was so pleasantly surprised when I saw how detailed everything on this mod's page is. So decided to comment.
I was considering how I could approach you regarding your attitude to the older systems which some people preserve in order to be historians, of a sort. Windows 7, for example, other than not receiving patches, is objectively better for this sort of thing (a twitchy single player shooter), than Windows 10.
Then I saw this post. If you want it, build it. Here's the source. Here's how it's done. Backport away. What a wonderful, and perfect, response to any doubts I had! Thanks for your time making this, if it doesn't work on my crusty old original games, in their native environment, I'll try and fix it, and be grateful. Thank you.
I once launched this mod manager and it worked, but the next day it stopped running, although the task manager shows that it starts but immediately closes.How to fix it?
ok so ME tweaks now tries to force itself open each time I try to download ANY mod manager mod for ANY game even ones it does not support and it is kinda pissing me off; how do I turn that the hell off so I can just download the file normally?
thanks for the reply; preferred manager? where and what is that? is that a site feature somewhere? it use to just download the file directly i would like it to go back to that if possible.
I am trying to use Oblivion Mod Manager, but the actual web site nexus when I click on the download for mod manager download opens ME Tweaks instead and I do not seem to have an option to turn that off so I am able to download manually; that is actually what I am asking.
Just click manual download on the web site? It always gives you an option to. Whatever manager you register for nxm links will handle nxm downloads which is initiated by you clicking download with manager. The other manager you want to use needs to configure itself to handle nxm links. If it doesn't support it then it cannot download through itself. Ask the oblivion scene how to use it.
the reason I am asking here is because METweaks is the one that is doing the downloading and I am trying to change that; I normally (almost always) download manually and don't like using mod managers at all but sadly some of the mods that are out there are poorly set up and are designed with mod managers in mind with NO simple options meaning to use those mods at all I have no choice but to use a mod manager of which METweaks which has worked great for me in the past is now sadly interfering with other games that also download nexus mod manager files and I am simply trying to find out how to turn this off within METweaks if that is even possible
Again, this has to be done in the other mod manager you want to use. My mod manager registered itself for use with the nexusmods nxm protocol. The other app you are trying to use needs to register it. This is simply how nexusmods designed their download with manager feature. Take it up with the developers or community for the games you want to mod. Mod Manager doesn't have a way to deregister itself because users can either download manually or whatever next app registers itself will replace ME3Tweaks mod manager' registration. There can only ever be one at a time and mine auto registers on boot.
You can disable auto registration in the settings but it won't clear the existing one (and I'm not implementing this either).
Hi there, i am still using Windows7 because i do not like what Microsoft did with Winows 8 10 and 11. This came came out and runs of Windows xp and Windows7 and yet this is only optimized for WIndows10. I am going back to the Trilogy because on ps4 Mass Effect LE does not f*#@ing compare to the PC Mass Effect with Keyboard and mouse.
Dlc mods just don't appear in the game, even though I had a successful installation and they are present in DLC folder. I have a steam version of the game and successfully installed both DLCs before that, so I have no idea what's causing this. Any help?

Game or DLC pirated = no support
Any suggestions?

You just don't care about old PC players.

Easy to say, didn't it?
Easy to fart something like "buy a new PC", didn't?
