How do I change the mod deploy order in Vortex?

I DO NOT mean mod load order when launching a game.

I mean the deploy order directly inside of Vortex.

I need mods deployed in a specific order to be bale to trust that Vortex did everything in the order I want it to.

You don't. But if mods have conflicting files you can choose which file is used. Which is the only purpose of controlling deployment order anyway.

On the mods page, the only thing to be concerned about is the conflict resolution rules. It's those rules that govern the results, not the deploy order.

you seem to have some definite opinions on this, so care to explain why you "need" this?

I can.......

A program called GFV needs the esm & esl files placed *BEFORE* the esp files.

Vortex, for some unglodly reson, puts them in BACKWARDS order, meaning that if you install an ESM file & then install an ESP file, the esp file loads FIRST, in load order & plug-ins.

Besides, ESM & ESL files should be at the top of the list anyway.

Everything you said was incorrect.

 

ESM and ESL files ALWAYS load before ESP files. This is a function of the game and Vortex can't affect it.

 

If you think that ESP files are loading before ESM/ESL files, then you have the list sorted by something other than "mod index".

 

Also, this thread was about deploy order, not load order so you are discussing the wrong thing anyway.

Go to "My Doicuments /My Games /Fallout 4" & see for yourself.

The loadorder text file & plugin text file shows them being loaded in the wrong order.

........Unless you say the game somehow no longer uses these files??

Maybe one or more of the mods you use has an improperly set esm flag. This often happens when someone messes up in making an esl-flagged esp, they make it a master file as well, at least in Skyrim SE/AE. I hope that I am writing it properly. I have never had the problem.

 

You can use xEdit to check the mod headers.

i can't see your stuff.

but what you described, and how you describe it would be a fundamental, game breaking scenario, where the game would never load successfully. for anyone. obviously that isn't the case.
