Technical question about mod translations with MO2

[N.Gamma]

Hello,
I have years of experience doing translations for the Skyrim and Fallout series. Now I have finally decided to use the Mod Organizer 2 for Skyrim SE. But now I have the question in which directory are the plugins, so I can open them with xTranslator? With Nexus Modmanager they were always in the data folder, but MO2 creates something like a virtual directory. Or do I always have to pack the translations in a zip file and then load behind the original mod?

With MO2 open, right click on the mod then select open in explorer that will put you in the directory of the mod organizer mod folder, no matter where your version of MO2 installed it too.

You can create a folder, or use an existing folder, and have MO2 use that folder.  I use a C:\Modding folder myself as its just easier for me to handle. Just don't forget to move your mods, downloads, or you're changing to the new folder. 

 

Click the "Settings" option in MO2 to select the source folders.
