simsrw73 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 On the MODS page, double click a mod. A detail panel will open on the right side. There you can edit the mods metadata, including the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathanchang Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Only installed mod can be edit. Double click an installed mod, and you will see some info pop up on the right.Simply edit the mod name. You can manually change mod version and categories here as well.

Loveblanket Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Why would it not allow you to change the name of downloaded only mods? That makes it pretty painful to have to manually search for oddly named mods. Vortex should not have released until it at least had the functionality of NMM.

Besides, you CAN rename mods - in Mods section double click and change the name in the right panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeowulfSchmidt Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Vortex should not have released until it at least had the functionality of NMM. Given that there is likely some functionality of NMM that will never be implemented, that basically means that Vortex would never be released. As well, this is an alpha, which is clearly posted in multiple places on the download page. It's not a stretch to think that there might still be some features not fully implemented. Programs like this are never feature complete. There's always something. Claiming that it shouldn't have been released is like saying that one shouldn't taste the soup until it's on the table.

Krytern Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 It isn't released, it is in alpha, not even beta yet so there is a lot of work for them to do. I do hope they add the option to rename downloads at some point even if they aren't installed. What I could possibly do by accident shouldn't take away functionality.

I'm guessing that's never been a problem for anybody. It's like saying I can't change folder names in windows because I might accidentally erase it. The bottom line is that it's the most basic functionality you could ask for and it already exists for installed mods, so there is simply no reason for it not to be there for downloads.

I'm not asking for an outrageous feature, it's basic functionality that already exists for part of the program, renaming files is basic functionality in almost every program of this nature and it's silly not to make it available for downloads.
