Download Not Starting (Asia/Oceania) June 2024

Recommended Posts

Briefly speaking, when I tried to download a collection, there's a pop up "Failed to download collection", and "More" shows that "Network connect was not permitted, please check your firewall settings."

  • Which version of Vortex are you using?   1.11.6
  • Which game are you modding and which game store did you purchase it from? Hogwarts Legacy and Baldur's Gate 3 from Steam
  • Which mods are you trying to use?  https://next.nexusmods.com/hogwartslegacy/collections/uehwil
  • What steps did you take before you encountered the error?
    1. Go to the mod page
    2. Click ADD TO VORTEX
    3. Vortex poped up and the download start "pending".
    4. The download failed with the message I stated above
  • What is the specific error message you received? See attach

I have already tried following tests to help diagnose the problem:

  1. I close all anti-malware and firewalls and make sure Vortex is in the "allow application to go through firewall" list. 
  2. I tried to open Vortex in Admin mode.
  3. I tried to turn on/off VPN.
  4. I tried to download normal mods instead of collections (it successes).
  5. I tried to download collections from another game Baldur's Gate (it doesn't work).
  6. I tried to download collections of smaller size (a 5 MB mod, it doesn't work).

By the tests I can only come with a conclusion that my Vortex won't allow me to download collections no matter the size and game. I don't know how this happen 😞

Hello friend, sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues. 

Are you using any browser extensions in addition to your firewall/security programs that may be preventing the downloads? Have you tried opening Nexus using a different browser?

Emmm I never use any security-related browser extensions but switching to Edge did solve the problem. That's strange but thanks for the advice 🙂 Have a good day

I am in China and the Nexumods webpage can be browsed normally, but I am unable to download MODs. This has happened in the past two days, and I was able to download MODs normally before.All the Chinese users I know have encountered this problem.

Not sure if it's any help. Manual download works, just that downloads remain pending in Vortex app. I'm in Malaysia. Coincidentally, backbone mods for Cyberpunk such as ArchiveXL, Codeware and TweakXL gets updated today, which is how I noticed all the pending download statuses.

I welcome the dedicated Asia server, it has been pretty much crawling speed when Vortex was swapping between the three US locations (Los Angeles, Chicago and Miami) as download nodes for my location.

There is  the same issue in Korea. Some mods can be downloaded through Voetex, but some cannot be downloaded through Voltex.
Below MODs can't be downloaded with Voltex.

I can log in on Vortex just fine, but mod downloading is not working. I can download mods manually just fine so I think it's Vortex's problem.

No automatic Windows firewall prompt after opening Vortex. I'm using win11 and here's what I did:

1. I added C:\Program Files\Black Tree Gaming Ltd\Vortex\Vortex.exe in here and allowed both network types.

2. I added rules in Firewall "Advanced setting" both in and out.

 

Could someone please tell me how to set up the firewall manually?
