How to move Mod Organizer Mods from one disk to another

Pretty much this,

 

I do not want to have to spend a lot of time acquiring my mods list, troubleshooting, writing patches, and the whole shebang all over again at the moment.

 

Moving it from a Rotary Drive to a Solid State Drive.

 

I'm presently installing Skyrim to the SSD.

 

Simply overwriting Skyrim Directory in whole has presented numerous issues including executables failing to start and false reports of .dll's missing from the Win7 installation.  Yes I checked critical plugs and drivers reported missing are in fact correctly placed in Win7.

For just mod organizer I did this, and worked pretty well:

 

* Just do the normal Skyrim installation.

* Then install SKSE directly on the Skyrim folder.

* After this install Mod Organizer somewhere on the new drive

* Then add at least one mod (any one) to Mod organizer

* Then copy/paste the whole content of Mod Organizer/Mods/ from the old drive to the new locetion where MO is.

* Do the same for the "overwrite" folder

* Restart MO.

 

 

How is performing the new "Beast"?

Well hopefully you saved your mo into a separate folder than the data folder, in which case just move that folder. 

If you didn't you'll need to transfer your profiles and mods folders the rest you can just re-download.

 

Personally I don't think much of having skyrim on a ssd, run your os from there. I mean the pure gold that ssd space is apparently worth isn't really worth the minuscule fps boost it gave me last time I tried.

Ah, ok.

 

Yes the issue with starting Skyrim was tied directly to just trying to shortcut a lot of work by dragging the installation from one folder to another.

 

I just reinstalled Skyrim from Steam, did the graphics options, and started the normal game without an issue...

 

D: Agghhh! So much work!

 

Making this computer work!

 

haha alright going to re-read what was just said and maybe get some exercise here.

If you downloaded the manual install(not installer) of Mod Organizer, you can just move the whole directory of Mod Organizer.

 

For me I move the Mod Organizer in the Skyrim directory(where TESV.exe is ) so that I can browse everything easier.

FPS boost on a SSD? Pretty much zero.

Load time improvement? Huge.

So those errors must have something to do with MO trying to access Nexus Mod Client information then?

 

I don't need MO to serve that function...

Still no dice.

 

I haven't been working on this all day mind you but dang!

 

I just had Skyrim running in normal mode, then added the mods as perscriced, installed skse, and ENB drivers... Now the base game wont run, even got a missing MSCRB100.dll error, tracked that to System32 in windows it was missing for some reason,

 

Installed the Microsoft C++ Redistributeable,

 

No dice.

 

Im tired I did deadlifts today and running out of steam tonight.
