Vortex [Plugins] How to import/Export Load order

[miclans]

Hi everyone

I'm looking for a way to export my Vortex load order for Fallout 4. So others can easily import it.
I found the "loadorder" and "plugins" files in this location C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Fallout4, but it does not give anything.

Can anyone help with that?
[Yes, I know that Vortex has LOOT integrated. I need to export a custom load order]

Just copy the loadorder.txt file. Copy this address below into File Explorer to get to it.

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Fallout4

You can also open this via "Open -> Open Game Application Data Folder" on the toolbar of the Mods screen.

Thank you for replying. As I mentioned, I've already found the loadorder.txt file, but if I share that, how can someone use it to easily get my load order? 

You can manually set the load order according to the "load order" text file, but it can be very time-consuming. Is there a way to import loadorder into Vortex?

It sounds like you're talking about the Collections feature, which allows you to export all mods and load order data into a bundle for others to use. 

You can learn more about it here: https://modding.wiki/en/nexusmods/collections

I thought the collection was for sharing installed modlist only. Turns out it will include the load order data also if I create one.

Thank you for your help and the link. I'll check it out.

One more thing: Wabbajack is not required to install the Nexus mod collection?

Wabbajack is unrelated to anything official

Alright, I guess that means I should forget about Wabbajack.

Thank you!
