Just wanted to add that Battletech is still in need of a fully featured mod manager. We have small but dedicated playerbase and strong modding community (343 mods but only 858k downloads so it doesn't show up on main page).

Modding is done via running a modtek (https://github.com/BattletechModders/ModTek) - an injector that modifies base game DLL file, needed to run once per game patch - and dropping mods in /Battletech/Mods folder. Modtek could probably be extended to support arbitrary folders and thus multiple modset profiles.

Savegame management is a bit more complicated but there exist a savegame editor (and also a very basic mod manager).
