With version 2. 0 it now checks mods conflicts.
At the time it only check the conflicts and tell you which files. So you can see all the files are conflicting and can take some action: disables all and enables just one. You can see the mod and file so u can try go to mod's authors and ask them to merge the mods that u want :D or you can do anything else that u want.
Its a bit slower with many mods, sorry. But its because mod manager have to extract all mods and check all files. Not my fault anyway, but on next version ill try optimize it.
