Aandark Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 I'm new to modding and Vortex so I'm sorry if this is a bad question or easy fix... I just installed Vortex, It identified my game, I added mods to my list but there is no launch button on the Fallout 4 Image. It's listed in my managed games under the games tab but I don't know how to launch it or how to fix it if I've done something wrong. My cursor is hovering over the Fallout 4 image, so a play arrow should be showing but it's not. Can somebody please point me in the right direction??

showler Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Is Fallout 4 currently being managed? Like, do you have the "mods", "Collections", "Plugins" and "Save Games" tabs listed on the left? And which Fallout 4 image are you hovering over? The one at the very top left corner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm hovering over the fallout 4 image in the games tab under managed games. I have the options under the 3 dots in the right corner of the image that lets me open game files, etc but I do not have a start button, which I'm assuming should be in the very center of the image we are discussing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showler Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Nope. Go to the games tab near the top left. Fallout 4 should be listed under the "managed games" section at the top. Hover over it there and you'll get the "activate" button. Click it. The Fallout 4 image should appear in the top left corner of Vortex. That's where the "play" button will appear.

showler Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 Now for the important part: You DO NOT need to launch the game through Vortex. Doesn't matter if you are using mods, using the Script Extender or playing vanilla. As long as any mods you've installed are deployed properly in Vortex launching the game through the more normal means works just as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
