Load (plugin) order management (for applicable games).

Profiles (ability to switch between different mod configurations seamlessly).

Mod isolation (game directory is kept clean).

Since then, several members of the modding community have stepped in to continue development (the birth of 'Mod Organizer 2', which Step refers to as simply 'Mod Organizer' or 'MO'). Mod Organizer was initially developed by Tannin before he retired as the lead MO creator/developer to became the lead developer of 'Vortex' (by Nexus Mods). This makes enabling and disabling mods very simple and clean and without potential for breaking other mods or the game itself.

It relies on a virtual file system (VFS) to deploy mods during runtime, which preserves the integrity of all assets in the game's 'real' file-system. Mod Organizer (MO) is an open-source program designed to simplify the installation and management of mods and modding tools for beginners and experts alike. Step does not distinguish between the two. This guide pertains to Mod Organizer in its most contemporary state, which today is officially 'Mod Organizer 2'.
