Manually Allocate A Game's for Nexus Mods App Feature Suggestion

[minor sky]

Hello guys, I am here to say that the Nexus Mods App is working great and it fit like a glove. The only suggestion I can ask for is a feature where we can manually allocate a game's folder, Vortex has this feature and it helps.

There's a ticket for this in our GitHub but it's not planned in the short term. Why do you need this? If you install a legal copy of the game via Steam or GOG (Heroic on Linux), the app should find it

Because Vortex has it and I really like it, why not implement it, and also sometimes I have to do it manually

So the app currently relies very heavily on having a legal, vanilla install at the start of managing the mods. Best way we can ensure this is to check with your game launcher.

Vortex cares a lot less about the state of your game when you start modding

The developers don't plan to implement it? No one else interested?

It really helps sometimes even if you have a legal license from Steam or something

A good chunk of those who want it are pirates (although some aren't!). The ticket for it is here:

Thank you

Although beside that, the app is perfect and 100% better than Vortex, I could say better than MO2 too

Like I said, it fit like a glove

@little night Hi again, so is there a possibility to plan this new feature?
