Some Mod Installers are Not Available

[Zikimura]

I get this message when I just started the process of setting up my Vortex. Does anyone know if it really means that I won't be able to use the save feature in my games? I'm a little confused and googling it didn't show me much.

I don't think it will affect your saving, but it will prevent you from installing mods that need to use the save folder.

If you have the space, you can just move the game to your C drive and not have to worry about it.

Correct. It is just letting you know you cannot install config files and save game files using Vortex due to the game, staging folder, and Local AppData folders being on different drive partitions.

The game only supports hardliniks, which is the reason for this limitation. You can use the "Never Show Again" button to suppress the notification.

What kind of mods would those be?

So far, would you say the current mods are not those types for Stellar Blade?

I think mainly they would be save games themselves.

There are config files and save files on the Nexus, yes. You would just have to install them manually. You can still download with Vortex, but then you will get an installer error message with a button to open the relevant folder where you can manually copy the mod files from the staging folder.
