MO: FNIS does not create Tools folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data

[Nameraca]

Good morning,

 

I'm following this guide.

 

 

FNIS V6_2, downloaded via MO from Nexus Mods.

 

Everything is run as Admin.

 

Basically, the TOOLS folder is not created when installing the mod via Mod Organizer. Neither are the other two. The mod says it's installed correctly.

 

I had to reinstall Skyrim last week, so perhaps this has something to do with it? I made sure to delete my Skyrim Folder completely from C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ once done with the uninstall.

mm if you use MO then the folder is created in MO's overwrite directory

The only thing in that folder is SKSE.

 

But it's in fact in the mods Folder in Mod Organizer in Program Files.

 

Thanks!

 

Works!

Are you sure you're right clicking on data to make sure it's installing correctly?

Follow the STEP guide for using FNIS with Mod Organizer and you should be fine (link in my sig).

Well, in the STEP guide, it links back to the video I linked above.

 

I get this result.

 

Mod Organizer is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Mod Organizer

 

FNIS is: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Mod Organizer\mods\Fores New Idles in Skyrim - FNIS\tools\GenerateFNIS_for_Users

I'll just follow the STEP Guide for a clean skyrim Install, then re-follow the STEP guide for proper modding. Must have made a mistake somewhere.

 

EDIT: Ok, success. My mistake was not running it through MO.

 

Sorry for being bad. Thank you!
