I’ve been using Linux exclusively for over seven years now, including for gaming (believe it or not), but only now is the first time I’ve been in the mood to get mods for my TES games working.

Anyway, I searched how to do it and, as per usual when it comes to Linux, found a bunch of different instructions documents with a bunch of different approaches. Anybody have an opinionated recommendation for the one that’s the most up-to-date/preferred by the community currently?

    I think manually modding really sucks. I got it working in the past using MO2 but the easiest way is probably to use SteamTinkerLaunch to install MO2 or Vortex, it does everything for you. That’s also how I mod Cyberpunk using Vortex in my system, works perfectly fine.

      Trying to use SteamTinkerLaunch to install Nexus Mods was a nightmare for me. It was so bad that I wiped my Linux install and installed Windows.

      That Windows install didn’t last long, but ever since I’ve just done things manually. I’m going to keep doing that way until NexusMods.App is ready.
