[Suggestion][Vortex] I'd like to be able to see which mods I have installed when selecting patches

[tybaltfestival]

When I am installing mods in Vortex, certain mods will have me select compatibility patches for mods I may already have installed.

The problem is I don't always remember which mods I have installed.

 

Currently this list is not visible while the installer options are showing, so in order to check I must cancel the installation and make a list of what I have.

 

I would like to be able to see the list of mods I have installed at the same time as I am picking compatibility patches.

 

Even better would be a way for the installer to tell me if I already have the mod installed, but I'm not sure how much of this would depend on the mod author.

 

I picture a list to the side of the mod installer that lets me search for/filter active mods, especially those which share files with the mod I'm installing, even if I'm not able to change their state.

 

Would such a thing be possible?

 

Many thanks

I'd like this too.
Either a way to drag the installer screen away from Vortex so I can scroll in the MODs tab or some other way.

Too often I go to install a mod that has tons of options and compatibility patches for several mods, and like the OP, I have to cancel the installation in order to go back and look at my MOD list in order to verify what's there and needs a patch from the Installer I just closed.

FOMOD can be designed in such a way that they auto-detect various plugins (and other files). It might be nice to pop it out into a separate window or something though.

 

I'll move this to the Vortex forums.

Which is great for the FOMODs that are written to do that, however, there's a plethora of older mods with installers that will never be updated due to Mod Authors leaving etc.
