Tried to Mod, accidentally lost Data folder, what do I do? - posted in Skyrim Mod Troubleshooting: I tried my hand at installing some mods. One of them involved extracting into/replacing the original data folder. Against my better judgement, I was really really tired when doing this.
You need to run Dual Sheath Redux Patch.jar from: C: Program Files (x86) SteamApps common Skyrim Data SkyProc Patchers Dual Sheath Redux Patch. (If you changed your installation drive, then the target would be Drive Folder SteamApps common Skyrim Data SkyProc Patchers Dual Sheath Redux Patch) It is recommended that you use LOOT with SkyProc patcher. It will ask for BOSS, but if you do not have it (and you should use LOOT instead) it will allow you to locate the LOOT.exe from your HD and use that instaed. Standard path for LOOT.exe is: C: Program Files (x86) LOOT It can be downloaded from: LOOT Ousing LOOT is simple.
You can use it as a standalone to sort your load order and to look for possible errors. It can be also used as a part of a SkyProc patcher. Once patcher knows where to find LOOT it will not ask you again. - Sort Plugins - (LOOT: Working) - Apply Once LOOT is done, close both LOOT windos, but leave patcher window open. It will now run it's course in 2 phases.
The time it takes depends of the amount of your mods, but it is relatively fast process. It is recommended that you run patcher occasionally, so that parent mod data is always fresh. Fade in professional screenwriting software crack free full. There is no need to stress about it, though. Game will warn you (as you saw) if data is not refreshed. Then just run SkyProc+LOOT combination and it is all fine and well.
It's stored at%localappdata% Skyrim plugins.txt (can be run from 'Start' » 'Search' or 'Run'), or C: Users [username] AppData Local Skyrim plugins.txt. You can backup and restore that if you want.
IMO, it's better to just use to take care of the mods' load order. LOOT can automatically decide the optimal load order of mods. Also: While sorting, LOOT checks for load order errors (such as incompatibilities and missing requirements) and notifies you of any issues that it detects. It also provides thousands of plugin-specific messages, such as usage notes and bug warnings, to help keep your game healthy. I use Nexus Mod Manager and lately when I start the vanilla Skyrim launcher it messes up the order of my installed mods. Just launch Skyrim or SKSE through the Nexus Mod Manager, to avoid the vanilla launcher messing up the load order of your installed mods.
