8. Exporting a profile

Exporting a profile

In the profile dropdown there are 2 options for exporting a profile. The export profile option and export code option

The export profile option is designed to export a profile in such a way that reimporting it later produces an install that is exactly the same as when you exported it

The export code option will quickly produce a code that contains more basic information but can still be very useful for quickly sharing a modlist

Export profile - What it does

  • Copies the modid and fileid of every mod in the profile and adds them to the manifest
  • You can add a fileid to any mod that does not have one.
  • Copies fomod settings for any mods in the profile that used fomod
  • Adds the Overwrite folder, and load order settings to the output .amethyst file
  • Importing via the inport manifest button will install the .amethyst file exactly like a collection and auto apply any saved fomod settings

Mod Source

The source button will give these 4 options, this is what they do

  • Nexus - Downloads from nexus, Requires the modid and fileid to be set
  • Direct URL - For mods not found on nexus you can add the url to them here, They will show up as off site mods in the install window
  • Bundle - These mods will be copied straight to the .amethyst file. If the mod doesn't have a download link you should use this. This is useful if your modlist has something like a dyndolod output that you want to keep
  • Ignore - The mod won't be added to the exported file at all

Export Code - What it does

This will encode various information into a string that can be imported, It encodes the following

  • Nexus Mod ID and File ID
  • Archive size (if available)
  • Fomod settings used to install the mods
  • Separator name and position
  • Mod load order

It does not include off site mods or non nexus mods, It's basically just a nexus manifest as a compressed string

To export and import using a code + an example

  • Simply press the profile dropdown and click export code, A box will appear with a long text string you can share.

  • It is recommended to share this using something like sharetext.io as it can be quite long

  • To import simply use the import code option and paste the code in, A collection window will appear where you can install as a new profile or append to another one

Here are some examples you can try. Below is an example for Skyrim SE that installs some basic mods.
