MrTargren Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 (edited) Vortex 1.13.7 I've tried mods from Bloodstained, Torchlight II, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and they all seem to be giving me the same 403 error (see attached image). The client seems to be logging in fine, it's just the downloads failing when I hit the "Mod Manager Download" button (so the hint about "expired link" doesn't make much sense) Edited March 15 by MrTargren Added forgotten vortex version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot that. I updated to the latest when I was prompted, so it's 1.13.7. I've edited that into OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChemBoy1 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I have seen this error pop up from time to time as well. It is usually resolved by simply restarting Vortex. Here's the troubleshooting sequence to try: Restart Vortex (usually fixes the 403 error). Log out of Vortex, then log back in, then restart Vortex. Reinstall Vortex using the installer from the site (this will NOT affect your mod setup). Then repeat 1 and 2 if still not fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTargren Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 (edited) 1 and 2 haven't. I'll give 3 a try. Update: Nope. Uninstalled and reinstalled, and still getting the same thing. Edited March 15 by MrTargren Updated status Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChemBoy1 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Are you using a VPN, proxy, or any other kind of special networking? Something is preventing Vortex from reaching the Nexus Mods servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vortexposer Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) Where are you getting these links from? They don't look like normal addresses. https://www.nexusmods.com/kingdomcomedeliverance/mods/1883?tab=files&file_id=8134 Does this work?

Clicking on "Mod Manager Download" on NexusMods. I can do "Manual Download" through the browser fine. It looks like vortex is either making bad API endpoint connections, which is weird for the latest version, or there's something odd about my account that it's not allowed to download them (403 is "forbidden"). Unless it's DNS. ("It's always DNS^TM") Edited March 17 by MrTargren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
