📋 About This Mod
This is a simple mod manager I created.
If needed, all you need to do is locate the No Man's Sky folder (for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky).
It should work with both the Steam version and the GOG version but has only been tested with the Steam version.

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community trust with 509 endorsements and over 11k downloads
- Handy features like drag-and-drop install and save backups
- Works with both Steam and GOG versions, though only tested on Steam
⚠️ Cons

For No Man's Sky players who mod their game and want a simple tool to manage mods without manual file juggling. If you're on the latest game version, this may not work, so check compatibility first. Skip if you prefer manual modding or play on GOG without testing.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod manager doesn't auto-detect the game folder, manually point it to your No Man's Sky installation directory (e.g., Steam\steamapps\common\No Man's Sky).
- Use the save backup feature before installing mods to avoid losing progress if something goes wrong.
- If you're on the latest game version, test with a single mod first to ensure compatibility, as this tool hasn't been updated since 2017.
