uhsender Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Hi hi, so I'm running Vortex version 1.4.15, on 32-Bit Windows, and I'm having a problem launching RDR2 through the Vortex Launcher. When I have RDR2 activated, and press play in Vortex to launch it, the Rockstar Launcher opens up, and informs me that "This Social Club account doesn't own Red Dead Online, please ensure you are using the correct account and try again."I verified that the account was correct, as I can run RDR2 through Steam itself, and play both RDO (where I verified it was the correct login), and the Single Player game.In the Rockstar Launcher, I only see Red Dead Online in my library, which confuses me further. I just wasn't sure if this was a Rockstar sided issue with their launcher, screwing up Vortex? Or is there something wrong on the Vortex launcher?I don't know whether or not its relevant, but both Vortex and the Rockstar Launcher installed on harddrive (C drive), while the game folder for RDR2 is within Steam, which is installed on my second harddrive, (D drive)Is the hard drive difference a problem? Do I have settings in Vortex wrong? Is the Rockstar launcher acting weird? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhsender Posted August 1, 2021 Author Share Posted August 1, 2021 Also for clarification, I'm just trying to play RDR2 single-player with mods. Not interested in Red Dead Online, that's just the message that pops up when I try to initialize the entire game from Vortex Furthermore, I did a clean install of Vortex, Rockstar's Launcher (which initialized through Steam when Launching RDR2), and RDR2 itself on steam, just in case, but to no avail. I currently have "0 Active Mods" in Vortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 If you have 0 active mods, then you haven't Deployed themYou need to1. Install2. Enable3. Deploy.once you have them installed you don't need to start the game with Vortex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhsender Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 Holy crap, I don't know why I never considered this.Thank you! Is there any reason to need to run it through Vortex in the future? Otherwise I'll just skip along on my merry way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only Mod Manager that MUST run when you start a game is Mod Organizer 1 and 2, because of their "Virtual File System" So, try starting the game as normal, through Steam or that Rockstar Club unnecessary DRM on top of Steam DRM and see how it goes. Report back if it worked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
