Why isnt vortex downloading mods

Why do I need to deploy them if I installed them already. Mod location see bellow. Thank you. Last edited by sibbirius ; 24 Apr, am. Showing 1 - 12 of 12 comments. Maybe stupid question: You did the following first? Before you can mod Fallout 4 you need to modify the Archive section of the game's configuration files to allow mods to run in the game. Don't panic, you must do this in order to mod your game. This is what you need to edit: You need to add the following lines to the Fallout4Prefs.

Vortex deploys the mods you enable in your fallout dir, there is top right a message if it should deploy as far as i remember. That means you have a download dir, but the deploy is as far as i remember the game folder. I didn't like Vortex and installed mod organizer 2 which is in my eyes far more user friendly and easier. Still not working, I restored everything, did the steps from esbvb09 and can install the full dialogue lines mod. I tried mod organizer and found vortex to be a little more user friendly.

The apply button was disabled initially, like the deployment method had already been applied, but still I couldn't deploy mods thanks to a deployment method not available error or whatever, but after changing the method in the drop-down menu to something else and then back seemed to reenable the apply button.

Then I clicked apply and deploying mods worked. Still haven't seen if mods actually loaded in game but at least it got rid of the red rectangle in the menu.

Plus this might have been that I messed something up weirdly in installation though, so idk if it'd work in most cases.

Ever since I updated Fallout 4 Vortex stopped putting deployed mods into the Plugins list. I'll download and deploy the mod but it's missing from the plugins and won't work in-game. I have the newest version of Vortex and mods are set up to download on the same hard drive. Showing 1 - 12 of 12 comments.

Did You start the game with F4se? Originally posted by bunny de fluff :. Did you set vortex to use f4se to start game? Did you update place everywhere?
