Hello.

After the news about certain emulator closure, I was thinking...

Would be a good idea to download the mods locally (they don't weigh too much afaik), and after that, install them with some tool, to select specific game mods to install. Just in case they get lost for whatever reason, it's a good way to manage them.

Sorry to bother.
Thank you for your hard work.

No need to apologise! This is something I am considering adding. The idea being after clicking Download Game Mods, another Window will open, allowing the user to select which mods, etc. to download, then confirm and process it.

In the meantime, for archive retention purposes, you can toggle the Delete Downloaded Mod Archives option to OFF and all the zips will remain saved on your machine, rather than being deleted after extraction. To do this, see below:

  1. Open SwitchEmuModDownloader
  2. Click on Options > General > Uncheck Delete Downloaded Mod Archive
  3. Click on Download Game Mods

The mod archives will be preserved in within the /load/ directory, under the corresponding Game Title ID

Hello. Thanks for answering so quickly.

Yes, I saw that /load/ folder. The only issue there is that every folder is code named, so it's a bit hard to check which folder is for what game.

But I'm super glad that you have this idea in consideration.

Have a great day. :)
