NMM is it's own disaster, MO has always been superior.

Seriously is it THAT bad?
I understand it might be buggy or unoptimized but I never had any crashes or broken mod whatsoever - and I was using NMM for Fallout 4, Skyrim (old and new version) and a bunch of other games.
NMM is horrible, particularly when it comes to uninstalling mods. It also completely trashes your game folder. MO is just better.

hmm that's a good point, I always think the way they did it is super unorganized - there are a million sub-folders for each mods...anyhow I somehow thought that was how FOMM worked too.
There's a reason Nexus finally decided to cut their losses with NMM, and they hired the MO developer to start a new mod manager for them from scratch without NMM in it at all :P

I read that last night, the new one's called Vortex i believe. Either way, Nexus still advertises and wants you to use NMM for now tho lol
Out of curiosity I was installing mods today with MO, and it says "Based on NMM" or something like that?
Interesting to hear MO2 is working with New Vegas, I read that it was having problems activating BSA's.

It's on the very front page of the mod site itself. No offense but maybe you should actually try reading yourself.
BSA Priority (3): (This feature was removed from MO2 by Tannin and is pending review)
BSA files are archives that contain assets like textures, meshes, sounds, scripts, ...
All vanilla data resides in BSAs and by default, the Skyrim Creation Kit packages assets for mods in BSAs. Traditionally you can not control priority between BSAs and "loose" files (that is: assets that came as individual files), BSAs are always overwritten. Therefore, if you wanted to use files from a BSA over files from a mod that came as "loose" files, you'd have to figure out and delete the correct files manually.
MO fixes this problems and afaik it is the only tool available to do so. In the UI, check all BSAs you want loaded and you're ready to go. Files from BSAs have priority according to their installation order (left pane) -> They overwrite files from mods with lower priorities and don't overwrite files with higher priority. The limit of enables BSAs is approx 8000)

That's BSA Priority. It's a different thing from BSA activation problems.
MO2 has no problems with BSA's. BSA activation problems would be not being able to access/read files in the BSA archive or even detect BSA's, for example.
