LL Integration 0.8

 

LL Integration connects your browser, a local native bridge, and mod manager integrations for MO2 and Vortex.

The goal is to capture supported archive downloads, preserve their source metadata locally, and make linked mods easier to manage, update, or import into your mod manager.

This is now a beta release.
 

Beta note

 

I am mainly building this for my own modding workflow and sharing it because it may help others.

I will track bugs and update when I can, but I cannot promise individual setup support for every environment.

Game compatibility note
 

LL Integration is listed under Skyrim SE because that is where it was built and tested first, but the tool itself is not Skyrim-specific.
MO2 support should work with other games as long as MO2 downloads and mod metadata are available.

Vortex support is newer and depends more on the game’s staging/deployment setup,

so other Vortex games may need additional testing or fixes.

Confirmed so far (mo2 only) : Skyrim Special Edition and Oblivion. Other games are not confirmed yet.

Feedback is welcome.
