Unity Mod Manager not Detected (Pathfinder: Kingmaker)

[studentTwenty]

Hi! I'm having a problem with the Vortex mod manager. When I try to activate the Pathfinder: Kingmaker game to add mods (and what have you), it comes up with a message saying that I have to install Unity Mod Manager (UMM) to use mods with Kingmaker, and it offers a link to the UMM page on The Nexus. The only problem is that I already have the UMM installed.

 

UMM seems to be functioning correctly when I run the game, and Vortex works with other games fine, although I don't have it managing any other UMM games. I've restarted Vortex and run PF:KM multiple times, and everything that needs to have Admin has Admin.

 

Any ideas? If I can't use Vortex with PF:KM, no big deal - I mostly just want the Turn-Based Combat map and some extra portraits, so it's not that big of a deal to do it using UMM itself. That having been said, this is going to drive me insane if I can't get to the bottom of it lol.

 

Anyway, thanks for the help!

We're actually removing reliance on UMM entirely for 1.2.0+ so whatever problem you're having should be resolved then. In the mean time ensure the UMM tool of the Vortex dashboard is pointing to the actual location of UMM.

Thanks for the reply! I ended up fixing the problem by rebooting my computer, which I should have tried first in any case, lol. I'm looking forward to 1.2, then!

So, over a year later and I am still having this issue. Vortex says I need UMM, but it wont detect that its installed for Pathfinder Kingmaker.

Looking at the source code for the extension, if you've getting this error it means your install of UMM has not created the required registry keys: https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/vortex-games/blob/23e64bbf2d7d5fe7101983e024aa610c0f50a4eb/game-pathfinderkingmaker/index.js#L57

 

Try reinstalling the latest UMM.
