saves and mods (Nexus Mod Manager)

Post » Sun Oct 21, 2012 10:42 pm

Hi

I wish to take a break from Steam. For that I have to uninstall Skyrim as well. I've made backup of my savegames (700MB!). I have tons of mods installed via Nexus Mod Manager.

1). If I reinstall Skyrim some day, will I be able to load these savegames without all the mods installed?

2). Is there a way to create a backup of all the Skyrim mods within Nexus Mod Manager? So that if I decide to have all the same mods again, I don't have to find and install them 1 by 1 manually?

Thanks in advance

1. Depends on the type of mod. Smaller mods won't do much if deactivated. but large mods can cause fatal damage to game saves if not uninstalled correctly.

2. If you uninstall Skyrim, your mods will still be there.
