luigistyle Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 What the title says. Plugins specifically do not appear to work at all for Fallout 4, despite them being marked as enabled within Vortex. All non-plugin mods work fine. I'm on Vortex 1.4.9 on a 64-bit system on Windows 10 with 16 GB of RAM. I have approximately 40 mods installed. My plugins are as follows: *ArmorKeywords.esm *Homemaker.esm *TrueStormsFO4.esm *Binary Speech Checks V.4 Hard.esp *PA_Overmodded_Edition.esp *Consistent Power Armor Overhaul.esp *CPAO - Power Armor Overmodded Patch.esp *Companion Infinite Ammo.esp *BostonFPSFixAIO.esp *TrueStormsFO4-FarHarbor.esp *TrueStormsFO4-NukaWorld-FH-Compat.esp *DarkerNights.esp *TrueStormsFO4-EarlierSunsets.esp *DeadlyRadstorms_Climate_10.esp *EveryonesBestFriend.esp *FAR.esp *dD-Enhanced Blood Basic.esp *dD - Limited Blood Decals.esp *Give Me That Bottle.esp *Insignificant Object Remover.esp *LegendaryModification.esp *LongerPowerLines3x.esp *LooksMenu Customization Compendium.esp *Lots More Facial Hair.esp *LooksMenu.esp *SSEX.esp *Lots More Male Hairstyles.esp *[777] Sanctuary - Reworked Roads.esp *PA_Experimental_Material_PAOE.esp *console.esp *3dscopes.esp *ValiusHDTextures2K.esp *W.A.T.Minutemen.esp *DarkerNightsDetection.esp *DeadlyRadstorms_Damage_30.esp *dD - Small Splatter Size.esp *TrueStormsFO4-EarlierSunsetsFH.esp *PA_Overmodded_Edition_Automatron.esp *PA_Overmodded_Edition_FarHarbor.esp *TrueStormsFO4-FarHarborExtraRads.esp *TrueStormsFO4-GlowingSeaExtraRads.esp *Armorsmith Extended.esp *Scrap Everything - Core.esp *Scrap Everything - Automatron.esp *Scrap Everything - Far Harbor.esp *Scrap Everything - Nuka World.esp *Scrap Everything - Vault-Tec Workshop.esp Thank you in advance to anyone who responds!

HadToRegister Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Where exactly IS your Mod Staging Folder?What's the path to it?Also, I hope you're not opening up the built in Mod Manager Menu to check if the Vortex installed Mods are enabled, because that will cause Fallout 4's plugins.txt to fight with Vortex's plugins.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luigistyle Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 Where exactly IS your Mod Staging Folder?What's the path to it? Also, I hope you're not opening up the built in Mod Manager Menu to check if the Vortex installed Mods are enabled, because that will cause Fallout 4's plugins.txt to fight with Vortex's plugins.txtMod staging folder is G:\Vortex Mods\fallout4 (or {game}), whereas the game folder is G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout 4 I'm not sure what you mean by the built in Mod Manager Menu. If it's some sort of menu in-game that displays all installed mods or something of the sort, then I have never been in it. I've just been using Vortex to ensure that my mods / plugins are enabled.

HadToRegister Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Go to the MODS tab in Vortex, right click on any mod and select "Open in File Manager"This should bring you inside the Mod's folder, inside the Mod Staging Folder. Are there files in that folder? Do you see an esp, maybe a bsa or ba2 etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
