#Mod organizer 2 update install#
So starting with a small script I found on Github (, author never responded to my pull request), I slowly built on it until I had a tool that could in a single command install any mod on the list with minimal manual configuration.
Unfortunately there seems to be a lack of both native Linux mod managers, as well as mod managers that actually install mods the OpenMW way. Faced with the task of installing the large list of OpenMW-compatible mods on (because why wouldn't you play OpenMW with hundreds of mods installed?), I did not like the idea of doing everything manually.
