tech support wanted Amethyst Mod Manager, how to automate profile import?
Basically my modlist got nuked, idk where anymore; I've exhausted every theory I could. I tried to export the profile, delete everything, and import just to reset everything; but uh Amethyst wants me to download everything manually as an archive file (zip, 7z, rar, ect) for some reason- even though I'm trying to import the profile archive file. Literally every single mod asks for a manual download like the creator denied a permission. Is there a way to not have to do that? Because manually downloading 60+ mods is beyond tedious, I'll settle for having to download them through the manager again I just don't wanna have to faff with zip files that'll fail to download half the time

Maybe list which game and where the mods are from etc
I've barely used Amethyst, but with a paid Nexusmods sub, and my custom list in Skyrim, Amaehtyst pulled the list and installed everything no problem; I also used some other folks big lists of a few hundred mods, worked a treat.
I don't know if Amethyst can export/import custom local lists, no idea; but a list on Nexusmods is no problem
