DerellLicht Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 A few months ago, when I previously played Elex II, I used Vortex to install several mods into it... it installed them with no issues, and everything ran fine. The first time I installed a mod, I would run the game from Vortex, but after that I would run from the game's desktop icon. This all worked fine. However, I went back a couple of days ago to start a new game. I ran Vortex first, and installed updated versions of my mods as required. However, behavior has changed a bit... when I run the game from Vortex, all my mods load, and everything is fine. However, if I run the game from desktop icon (installed via GOG), my mods are ignored, though the game runs fine... This is different from previous plays... what do I have to do, to be able to run the game *with mods* from the desktop icon?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydawg55 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Why don't you want to launch your game from Vortex? I do that to make sure the mods I have installed are included when the game starts up. Starting the game from its original launcher is supposed to just launch the vanilla (unmodified) game. Did you also have to install any game support extensions to Vortex for your game. I am not familiar with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, as I stated originally, in the past two play-throughs, I did *not* need to run Vortex in order to run the game... Vortex installed the mods and they loaded when I ran the game from the game icon... this has been true in the past for all other Vortex-supported games as well... It is only in the new run, that I am having to run Vortex first, before running the game; it's not the end of the world, but it certainly isn't of any advantage to run two programs for one game...
