Modfusion, designed for ultra simple no user interaction installs and uninstalls while still allowing massive reconfigurability for power users.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why use Modfusion?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Modfusion does not just install mods, it provides the power of Mod Fusion to all your mods, reducing load orders and automatically installing patches upon detection of required mods or DLC. It also has version checks to ensure all your mods are up to date and alerting users if they need to update a mod to use the patches provided by another mod.
Modfusion lets you to have over 255 installed mods with ease as Modfusion can merge an unlimited number of mods into a single file. [size="6"]No other mod installer provides this feature.[/size] Modfusion can theoretically support an unlimited number of mods.
Mod fusion also allows user configuration files that can dynamically alter a mod during the merge process, this allows for totally new levels of configurability. [size="6"]No other mod installer provides this feature.[/size]
While not all mods can be automatically merged with Modfusion, Most tweaks, patches and rebalances can be. If a mod is created correctly it should only need at most a single .esm or .esp to hold all its new records, Modfusion will take care of all the patches, meaning no more DLC patches and numerous patches for compatibility with other mods cluttering up your load order.
Detects when you install a new mod or remove one every time you run it, even if that mod is not a Modfusion mod. Modfusion will then install or remove patches for all Modfusion mods to support the current load order. No more crashes on startup because you installed the wrong patch. No more incompatibilities because you forgot to install a patch.
Modfusion scans your load order and alert you if any mods in your load order need a master file that you do not have. This is the most common cause of Fallout crashing on startup.
Modfusion mods can be uninstalled as easy as they are installed: Just drag and drop the mod's ini file onto Modfusion to uninstall it and temporally disable it. Or you can delete the mod and then run Modfusion. Modfusion will uninstall it correctly either way.
And the biggest reason of all to use Modfusion: Trouble free, one click mod installs!
You downloaded and extracted the mod. Thats enough for Modfusion to know you want to use it. Install multiple mods with only one run of modfusion.
