And If I'm not going to update mods frequently, there's no point in using the mod manager for this game when manual installation is much easier without requiring any tool.
You use the mod manager for convenience not necessarily to update mods since it gives you a load order to better organize mods,more easily install them,know if those are working, know what is overwriting what(and solve eventual conflicts) and remove them safely
Which is something I said multiple times in my posts
Manual install can be much easier(not that much comlared to a mod manager) only if you know what you are doing and provided you do it correctly which is why im not recommending it for newbies
But if you find a simple 1 step installation too complicated, then I guess you can stick to your mod manager as even my grandma knows how to extract files from archive.
Never said that it's too complicated i just said that i wouldnt recommend it to people who are new to modding
The extraction process has nothing to do with what im saying it's what happens after that which causes issues
And what I'm recommending is simply installing a program(the mod manager) that takes care both of the extraction and the process of putting the files in the right place and running it
So nothing impossibly difficult to do and certainly not more difficult than manually installing a mod(actually easier since the user does only 10% of the job with a mod manager
)
Im happy to hear that your grandma is that gifted
I'm taking specifically for KP but it seems you want to continue making general statements that makes no sense for this game
I was talking about KP and nothing else regarding the statement I made and never mentioned anything else unrelated to that(And I never did in each one of my posts)
The only one that brought up a game(skyrim) that had nothing to do with the topic is you
So what you are saying here has no basis
especially when you haven't even modded the game recently.
What you claim is both irrelevant to the topic and makes no sense
Just because im not modding karryn's prison now it doesnt mean i dont know the methods of mod installation for KP or how they work
Those methods are still the same (manual install,vortex,MO2) and I never said anything that diverges from how you install mods with those
Even modders recommend Vortex over MO2 if you already take their advice of using a mod manager over manual install
"Modders" could literally be anyone so you are making a general statement that has no relevancy in this topic
The point im making is not about recommending a mod manager over another so this is again something unrelated to what im saying
The guide for karryn's prison modding(
You must be registered to see the links
) claims that vortex is recommended but it never says anywhere that it's outright superior to MO2 or that MO2 shouldnt be used so ultimately it's up to personal preference
I never said that MO2 should be chosen over vortex because it's straight up better i was just recommending it over the other mod manager for newbies because I find it more intuitive(but as I said this is not the main topic of the discussion)
Instead the installation method that is outright not recommended for karryn's prison mods is the manual installation for the same reasons i explained in my other posts
And the guy who made the guide is not some random dude on the internet but one of the main modders for karryn's prison
so you're just wrong on both topics.
I'm not
One topic is irrelevant to the point I was making and in the other I was recommending a mod manager over manual installation which something also recommended in KP modding guide
