Hi, I'm trying to mod Morrowind right now and I was following the "Morrowind Graphics Guide" from Nexus. I'm using MO2 while following the "Gopher" videos. I'm following his steps of installing mods via dragging the zip files into the manager and then installing them manually by specifying the data directory. I'm still doing the "essential" mods with bugfixes, etc. I'm wondering: How should I install "BAIN" files? They are usually divides in parts, like so: 00 CORE 10 FIXED TEXTURES 20 BC MUSHROOMS Sometimes there are also multiple "versions" of a mod, like so 10 Fixed vanilla textures 20 BC Mushroom Patch 20 BC Mushroom Patch - Smoothed 30 HD Textures I was wondering how I should approach such files? When I pull up the read me's they usuallly say to "download the parts seperately". Do I install 00 first and then repeat the process with 10, 20, etc? Or can I just select them all at once in one go? Thanks for the video, btw. I'm gonna post this in the main commentsection too, to see if anyone else knows what to do. Edit: the patch I'm talking about specifically is "Morrowind Optimization Patch", but as I've said I've also seen others with files with "double numbers" like 3 "10" options and 3 "20 options", so I was wondering if there was a main method for installings mods like this.
Dude, if every major mod program had a video like this, I would have saved countless frustrating hours of my life. Thank you very much for making this.
Just watching this for Skyrim special edition must say really easy to understand and follow, thank you this has saved me a lot of time trying to figure it out myself!
I had to reupload this entire video due to an update MO2 got that overhauled the entire Instance Management system. I took the chance while remaking this to try and make the video flow more quickly for those who are impatient.
We thank you for doing so. There's of course going to be those people who don't understand what you had to do and only see the smaller picture. This video is the absolute best one to follow. Especially for me since I was actually reinstalling this mod organizer.
RIP. But thank you for doing this m8. This would've taken me longer than I care to know in order for me to figure out what I was supposed to do if it weren't for you. You're a dead set legend m8.
So when I install a mod on mo2 can I launch the game with the desktop shortcut from steam or do I need to launch it through mo2 or create another shortcut?
What a legend, this was insanely helpful, informative, and easy to follow! Tbh I was completely overwhelmed when I first booted up mo2 but fortunately that didn’t last long with the way that you slowly and calmly explained everything. Normally tutorials don’t give the viewers time to breath due to just how fast paced they are, fortunately you’ve masterfully avoided this and I cannot thank you enough for that.
I normally don't comment - but I just simply had to pop in and say that this is hands down the clearest tutorial on anything I've watched on RUclips over the years. The editing, pacing and clear speech. Thank you so much for putting in the effort. Inspirational!
I never comment on guide videos, but you're something else my guy... Its rare to see somebody be thorough about guides for different games because it seems like they just want a good video to place ads on but this video wasn't like that, you actually went step by step no shortcuts and gave an explanation for everything! Props to you my guy and keep up the good work, super underrated!
This video explained everything so well, I'm getting into modding and this explains just enough so I dont get confused or scared of messing something up. Thanks very much!
I agree with Jared, step by step this was one of the best videos I have ever seen on how to install a program properly on a PC. If there was an award I could give you I would. Great work, thank you very much for your hard work and efforts.
Dude I cannot explain how much trouble i was having figuring this out by myself, really thought it was simple cause i used to only use console version, honestly if it wasnt for your crisp and clear video right here i would still be lost. thank you so much for existing!!!!!!
Am just at the end of 2 weeks of online training at work for new position.... our trainer was not bad at all.... but you sir are next level. Really could not ask for a better instructional presentation. Thank you (yes I know I'm commenting on a 3 year old video but I figure if appreciation is deserved it must be given... regardless if its a few years late lol )
Thank you for this! Having bought the GOG version of Skyrim, and feeling nervous about updating Wrye Bash to accommodate this new version (since it manages multiple games), I decided this was the perfect time to try out MO2, something I've actually wanted to do for some time. After having used Wrye Bash for many years, I was a bit apprehensive about learning how to use a brand-new (for me) manager, but I checked out your tutorial, and despite the fact that I normally prefer written guides for things like this, since they allow me to progress at my own pace, this was actually PERFECT. You are thorough, clear, and you don't rush through anything or miss any steps. After watching, I've just installed the Unofficial Patch and a couple of my favourite mods with MO2; so far, so good. Cheers!
Thank you for this easy to follow guide. I've been modding the hell out of bethesda games in the past but stopped playing them altogether in 2019. Needless to say I forgot a lot of stuff when it comes to modding. Your guide refreshed my memory perfectly. Time to start again!
Thank you! I've been using MO2 for months now and had no idea I could change the theme. Dark mode makes it a lot easier on my eyes. I've also been looking for how to add more than 1 game and you provided that as well. Great video!
If all the guides described everything in such detail, then everything would be much easier, thanks to the author for such a wonderful, simply the best guide.
Just wanted to say this video was incredibly informative, I could follow on with just your voice but the visuals were amazing for when I got stuck or confused. Amazing content Subbed and liked :) Checking out your other shit now.
dude thank you. this is my first time modding and this video was straight to the point and not confusing (especially for someone like me who struggles to understand pcs) I am very happy :)
Finally made the move over to MO2 now as well. Cant get used to vortex and always run into problems when installing a lot of mods. Thanks for this amazing tutorial!
OMG!!! I've watched at least 10 other videos on how to use MO2 and I wanted to jump off a cliff with each one. but this video was 1000 times better at helping someone like me who knows only the bare minimum about computers to be able to get some mods going. Thank you so much for this.
It's almost uncanny how such an old game still has an active community with modern tutorials. I was fully expecting a notepad-bandicam-complicated-outdated-slow-style tutorial, this was a pleasant surprise! This video made installing it... Too easy... Very rare for this type of content.
Most probably everyone but me knew that you no longer launch the game from Steam but use the "Run" button, a filled triangle next to the word "Run", on the upper right of the Mod Organizer 2 screen. That loaded my mod into the game.
Outstanding video, thank you for making it. I would like to add that it wasn't mentioned the user needs to click the 'Run' button on the top right of the Mod Organizer 2 window to play the game with the mods. Running the game through Steam doesn't seem to play the game with the mods. Cheers!
Thank you for not making me listen or try to follow along with Gamer Poets video. I tried MO2 two years ago, but his videos mostly just left me frustrated. Your video is SOOOO much easier to follow along with and you have a pleasant voice.
Have used your guide to modding the game before, for people on this journey for the first time; TRUST THIS FELLA, seriously it's so fucking amazing when it's done. It's a long process but it's so worth it. I'm going to be doing it again (new computer) and I'll be liking every video & try to comment on each and every video as well to help out with analytics. Thank you DarkPopulous, yer doing gods work feller
Awesome tutorial, Absolutely perfect! i never modded in my life or ever used MO2 but seeing this for the first time from you i understand it fully :D Thank you so much!
Well done. this is a great start. I hope that you continue on with different modding tools ( wryebash, bethesda archive extractor, bethini ) and techniques ( overwrite folder management, plugin/file conflict resolution) . I’d also love to see a video comparing the features of MO2 and Vortex.
You Sir are so good at tutorials that I nominate you to make a tutorial for all these other wannabes on how to tutorial. Thank You! This help out a lot.
Been following through with the videos and so far this is the easiest approach to modding. I'm not very experienced and Fallout New Vegas is a favorite of mine. Now I have a PC and trying to play without any adjustments is almost unbearable. Thank you so much for the vids, and keep it up! Would love to see in depth modding videos like these for more games too!
I know this is an old video but I just wanted to say thanks for the awesome tutorial :). Now I've just gotta figure out what mods I want to play with again after years away from Fallout 4 😂.
bro your tutorial was precise and easy going , its helpful for experienced poeple , but also very helpful for people with little to nothing of experience like me !now I will search if you have a tutorial fo install Zedit because mine wont find Fallout 4 no matter what I do !
Thank you for this tutorial.... I'm a step closer to adding New Vegas. I will remember to add it as a Global Instance..... It'll be fun to try to get this right!
Thank you sooo much. THAT was the clearest explsnstion I have ever heard, I now know how to use the damn program. You should make some more guides, or someone should employ you to do so. Once again THANKS!

We know enough now, thanks bruv

When he said "good job" i felt that

Me too man, me too
Just watching this for Skyrim special edition must say really easy to understand and follow, thank you this has saved me a lot of time trying to figure it out myself!
Glad it helped you.
Glad this still works! Could not have gotten modding without this. Great walkthrough!
These are the kinda guides that I like. Clear instructions on the proper section being talked about.

This is how every tutorial should look like! Well spoken, well explained, well shown, hat down, keep up the good work and thank you!
Literally the best most clear and concise beginners tutorial for MO2 on yt imo.. great work bro!

3 years later and this is still super helpful! thanks man
Excellent. I really wish more mod tutorials were like this.
This video explained everything so well, I'm getting into modding and this explains just enough so I dont get confused or scared of messing something up.
Thanks very much!
This is GREAT! Was just refreshing my mind after my hard drive crashed and this explanation was so much easier to follow. Thank you.
You... deserve a medal, thank you so much for being this thorough and highlighting where we need to click. It's very appreciated.
I agree with Jared, step by step this was one of the best videos I have ever seen on how to install a program properly on a PC. If there was an award I could give you I would. Great work, thank you very much for your hard work and efforts.
Incredibly high quality tutorial. A lot of noob explanations, but as someone who was once a noob, it is appreciated.
Dude I cannot explain how much trouble i was having figuring this out by myself, really thought it was simple cause i used to only use console version, honestly if it wasnt for your crisp and clear video right here i would still be lost. thank you so much for existing!!!!!!
This was exactly what I was looking for. step by step clear instructions, thank you!
i wish i could put a thumbs up on this multiple times. the clarity, the dry wit, there's even a flashback LOL. thank you so much.
These videos are a godsend. Everything is perfectly explained. Thank you
tks a lot sir. 3 years later and still help. I'm new to this game and this is the only video that easy enough for a dummies like to understand.
This is such an excellent and detailed tutorial. Thank you! Carry on, Waster.
just subscribed to you only for this video. This is literally the best tutorial ....no squeaky voice , subtle humor just the way I like.
Man, wish I had seen this months ago. Thanks for a so very clear step by step. I'm switching from Vortex to MO2 so this is a life saver :)
One of the, if not thee best installation tutorials I ever saw. Well done!
I've been looking at several MO2 tutorial vids .. this is by far the best and easy to understand.
Dude! This has to be the best tutorial I've ever seen. You have saved me a lot of headaches. Thank you SO much.
Really appreciate how detailed this video is. I am stupid with computers and it really helped me out a lot. Thank you
Wish all tutorial videos were this clear and easy to understand, especially for idiots like me. Well done. Subbed and belled. Cheers, Harry.

5 hours just to come across you, my goodness what an absolute save!!!!
dude thank you. this is my first time modding and this video was straight to the point and not confusing (especially for someone like me who struggles to understand pcs)
I am very happy :)

Wow..this dude is THE BEST TEACHER I've ever had!!! VERY CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS...THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so much for the detailed and organized video on setting up MO2. You are my life savor!
Holy hell, you are a great man for making this short sweet and to the point.
8:55 the "good job!" 🥺💜 so precious🤲
The best MO2 installation guide on RUclips. Subscribed!
Finally made the move over to MO2 now as well. Cant get used to vortex and always run into problems when installing a lot of mods. Thanks for this amazing tutorial!
Glad I found this, finally switched over after vortex being inconsistent junk, thanks for the guide
so glad this tutorial is clear and gets to the point immeadetly
Step by step clear instructions still work in 2023. Thank you.
I hardly comment but you did such a good job, hope your channel gets big
OMG!!! I've watched at least 10 other videos on how to use MO2 and I wanted to jump off a cliff with each one. but this video was 1000 times better at helping someone like me who knows only the bare minimum about computers to be able to get some mods going. Thank you so much for this.
Keep up the good work DP!
Thank you.
It's almost uncanny how such an old game still has an active community with modern tutorials. I was fully expecting a notepad-bandicam-complicated-outdated-slow-style tutorial, this was a pleasant surprise!
This video made installing it... Too easy... Very rare for this type of content.
Those types of tutorials also used this music too right? xD ruclips.net/video/TKfS5zVfGBc/видео.html
This is a lovely video! If you ever have an urge to make a video on more advanced uses of MO2 I think it would be useful and well received.
Thank you man, wish all mod related things had a tutorial like this for dummies like me
Great tutorial. Very straight forward. Thanks so much!
Most probably everyone but me knew that you no longer launch the game from Steam but use the "Run" button, a filled triangle next to the word "Run", on the upper right of the Mod Organizer 2 screen. That loaded my mod into the game.
the best mod manager video out there.
Awesome work man! I approved it on the MO2 page. I appreciate all the work you put into this!
Thats amazing, thank you do much! Glad you like it.
you're the man, Pop. Hope to catch you back at a stream soon!
I'll pop in next time i see you online ^_^
Amazing video! Thanks for the walkthrough!
Very precise video, left me with no further questions!
Outstanding video, thank you for making it. I would like to add that it wasn't mentioned the user needs to click the 'Run' button on the top right of the Mod Organizer 2 window to play the game with the mods. Running the game through Steam doesn't seem to play the game with the mods. Cheers!
Thank you for not making me listen or try to follow along with Gamer Poets video. I tried MO2 two years ago, but his videos mostly just left me frustrated. Your video is SOOOO much easier to follow along with and you have a pleasant voice.
When he said to download the mod, he recommended i thought you needed FOSE to work mods in games using mod managers
@@joseph233382 what do you mean? You talking about when Gamer Poets says F4SE and it sounds like he says "fours"? That's what it sounds like to me.
Have used your guide to modding the game before, for people on this journey for the first time; TRUST THIS FELLA, seriously it's so fucking amazing when it's done.

Awesome video, I didn't even need audio to follow along. Well done.
Man this is the most thorough guide. So much so that i feel either like a 6 year old or a 60 year old haha
Appreciate the tutorial. Been 6 years since I played games with mods
This is a truly great video. I am forever grateful for this (I was an extremely lost vortex user)
Awesome tutorial, Absolutely perfect! i never modded in my life or ever used MO2 but seeing this for the first time from you i understand it fully :D Thank you so much!

You Sir are so good at tutorials that I nominate you to make a tutorial for all these other wannabes on how to tutorial. Thank You! This help out a lot.
Bro! thanks for uploading this, although the owners of the mod updated the download steps I was able to follow along very easily! 10/10 👍
So nice to see a simple walkthrough on this
Been following through with the videos and so far this is the easiest approach to modding. I'm not very experienced and Fallout New Vegas is a favorite of mine.

Best Guide ever.... after 5 years of ........ Modding..... Thank You ☺☺
Fantastic Tutorial M8! Was using Vortex before, This is so much easier.
Dude, this program straight rocks like a champ, thanks for the tutorial my guy!
Thanks for a recent updated one. small things like this help lots in reassurance.
I mean I already knew most of this but, honestly this is a solid tutorial
Really appreciate the updated guide. Thank you so much!!
This is one of the best tutorials I've seen.
I know this is an old video but I just wanted to say thanks for the awesome tutorial :). Now I've just gotta figure out what mods I want to play with again after years away from Fallout 4 😂.
Great thanks.
There's no way to explain everything more clear.
Definitely one of the better tutorials out there. Thanks mate.
