Greywynd Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Vortex 1.4.15Windows 10 x64 (all updates)Game: Cyberpunk 2077Games folder: F:\GOG Galaxy\Games\Cyberpunk 2077Total mods: 7 + (CET) CyberEngine Tweaks installed manually - Vortex install of this mod did not work. (screen shot attached) Several mods recommend using hardlink deployment such as Simple Menu (install text from Simple Menu)Vortex Mod ManagerI recommend using Vortex so you don't have to fiddle with the game's folders and sub-folders. That reduces the likelihood to mess up a mod install. Furthermore, it allows to check all your installed mods for updates by a press of a button. The more recent versions of Cyber Engine Tweaks can be installed via Vortex as well.IMPORTANT: Vortex's Symlink Deployment method no longer works with CET version 1.10.0 or more recent. Go to Vortex's Settings page, Mods tab, change Deployment Method to "Hardlink Deployment" and redeploy your mods. If you can't select "Hardlink Deployment" you must move your mod staging folder to the same partition (drive) the game is located at. Under Settings on Vortex - in the mods tab - I only have one option available Symlink Deployment (screen shot attached). Am I missing something or is my Vortex broken?

Greywynd Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 In order to use HARDLINKS, the Mod Staging Folder must be on the same drive as the Game is. Okay, thanks! It looks like it decided that {USERDATA}\{GAME}\mods was a good idea - which is I suppose fine if you install everything on your boot drive... who does that?

Well it depends on whether you download the ONE-CLICK INSTALL version of Vortex or the CUSTOM INSTALL version of Vortex... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
