Yes, now installs correct. Thanks @insomnious & @Nagev

Any response?

Vortex installs wrong, mods packed like this one: Restored High Quality Weather Icons and Moon Phases MOD FILE CONTENTS: High Quality Weather Icons-7558-1-1-1672958308.zip mods modHighQualityWeatherIcons The mod is packed in the “mods” folder and Vortex installs it with this folder, which is wrong - should only install “modHighQualityWeatherIcons” to: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt/Mods Hope for a quick fix! @insomnious @Nagev

This is an ss from a user of my collection, I don't know which versions. Why are you asking? Is it already fixed in latest Witcher extensions?

@insomnious Another thing that should be fixed - the Next Gen version does not need a "Mod Limit Patch", because the developers of the game added it when the Next Gen version was released, so it is completely unnecessary.

Thanks for fixes @insomnious@Nagev and @Phaz42 for the discussion.

I agree with @Phaz42

I think we should agree on this way and test it.

@Phaz42 Yes. Taking TW3 Mod Manager as an example, which works ~99% flawlessly in installing mods for W3 and never adds dlc to the loading order.

@el0quenz That's because they don't matter so why should they mix with other mods that actually need to be set in the proper loading order. As for me it's enough that you make sure the dlc is installed and not that it shows up in the LO tab.

THAT'S HOW: If dlcSomeModName mod doesn't also have a regular modSomeModName, then Vortex doesn't add it to the loading order and mods.settings file. and If dlcSomeModName does have a modSomeModName counterpart, then only the modSomeModName will appear in the load order and mods.settings file.

DLC folders do not matter in the load order for The Witcher 3, they simply should not be there. Vortex should only mark folders starting with: 'modABCD' to the loading order (mods.settings)

@Phaz42 Hmm, I guess you're right, I got confused because a year ago it was in the load order tab as a whole mod, not separately dlc and mods like now. Only in this way is it correct: [modBrothersInArms] Enabled=1 Priority=1 VK=BIA - TW3 Bug Fix and Restored Content Collection-7329-2-2-1683912038

@insomnious So we need another update.

@Nagev @insomnious @Pickysaurus Hi. I have to report this again. If a mod contains multiple subdirectories/parts, for example Brother In Arms contains dlcBrothersInArms and modBrothersInArms. Vortex sets both of these directories as priority in mods.settings, i.e. dlcBrothersInArms and modBrothersInArms. We need a patch that restores this to the previous state when everything was working properly, as you can see in the image below: Vortex should mark the entire mod for the loading order, i.e. “Brothers In Arms Mod”, not the modification folders.
