Is this mutually exclusive with SMF + other confused questions

I'm a little confused on this versus Simple Mod Framework.

Is it possible to use Mod Framework and SMF together? Some mods are for SMF only (ex. Nexus Mods), other mods are for Mod Framework only (ex. the content packs listed on Itch).

If that's not possible, is there a way to get SMF mods to be usable with Mod Framework, or a way to get Mod Framework mods to be usable with SMF?

I started the mod framework here, but most of the modding community did not join me and eventually created SMF over at Nexus and Discord. Sadly, there is no compatibility between the two frameworks. It is possible to port mods across, but it might be tedious depending on what features of each framework are used.

However, both frameworks can create rpkg patches based on any game installation, even if it was modded before. So you can use different patch levels for each framework and remember to update the framework with the higher patch level last. For this framework, the patch level can be altered in flags.json.

Interesting. No idea how to get MF mods with SMF, and my modding knowledge is limited to installing and playing mods.
