Hi, I was looking into recompressing all of my .omods to something that makes them activate and deactivate faster (I'm guessing 7zip, data file compression = very low, and omod compression = none). I don't mind if it takes more disk space to store. Is there an automated way for me to do this? I have hundreds of omods and repackaging them one at at ime will take a very long time. I prefer an automated, and especially unattended procedure.

Actually BAIN (the Wry Bash installer) allows you to use 7zip files at whatever compression you want. I always do the lowest possible and non-solid.

I think though OMODs are just renamed archives. You could try rezipping an archive then rename it to have an OMOD extension.

In the OBMM "Settings" menu, you have an option for a compression boost. You could try that. I don't know if it works on already compressed archives though. I don't think it does. Worth looking into though.

Based on the tooltip of that "Compression boost" option, checking it will only make omod creation slower.

Oh, yeah. Oops. I misread your post.

No automated way of doing it

you would have to extract each omod and then recompress them, low 7zip and no omod compression..

mods that do not have obmm scripts you could put into one omod,

but, those that need scripts to install correctly you could not..

or use bsa's instead and place all your mods that are not mesh or texture replacers in bsa..tes4files utility does a great job doing this.

Thanks Corepc, it would seem so, from the looks of it. Oh well, I'll just do it one at a time... should take at most a couple of hours per session, per day...
