A modding utility for Starfield and some Elder Scrolls and Fallout games.

Pros of LOOT

  • Lightweight and focused solely on load order optimization
  • Supports a wider range of games beyond just Bethesda titles
  • Community-driven masterlist updates for accurate sorting

Cons of LOOT

  • Lacks comprehensive mod management features
  • Requires manual intervention for complex mod setups
  • Limited plugin conflict detection compared to Nexus Mod Manager

Code Comparison

LOOT (C++):

void Game::LoadOrderMethod(const std::filesystem::path& gamePath) {
    if (Id() == GameId::tes5)
        return LoadOrderMethod::timestamp;
    else
        return LoadOrderMethod::textfile;
}

Nexus Mod Manager (C#):

public override void SetModLoadOrder(IList<string> p_lstModLoadOrder) {
    string[] strPlugins = p_lstModLoadOrder.ToArray();
    File.WriteAllLines(PluginsFilePath, strPlugins);
    OnLoadOrderChanged();
}

The code snippets show different approaches to handling load order. LOOT determines the method based on the game, while Nexus Mod Manager directly writes the load order to a file.
