I am still importing my game and then I have to do the clean up before testing running the game. So far I like the UI. Those that don't, just admit you don't like change ... LOL

I'll have to test this on TTW see if it can handle large file installation like MO/MO2 can. NMM could not or mostly not and was suggested not to be used with TTW.

I hope more skins are released. Bright is too bright and default is Nexus Look.

You can edit the theme to change the colors, fonts, and font size. Just hit the Clone button in settings for the Theme tab. If you know CSS, you can manually edit it more in-depth.

I've got it set to handle nexus download links, however it doesn't seem to be working.

Don't release an alpha if it doesnt even work. NMM was a step above alpha and was a monumental piece of garbage, couldnt imagine what the finished version would have been like. and as i previously said it is very very sad that with two "attempts" with making a mod manager that they cant do basic functions. the prehistoric FOMMS And OBMM which are betas and not maintained any longer are still much more useful then these two half assed attempts.

Awesome to see it coming. I might actually be able to play a decent game of Fallout 4 or SSE sometime.

and still i think you are rude here. if you don't like it you can just simply pass it and you don't even need to say anything. i did try it out and it's working fine with me despite a few bugs that's will be fixed soon. if you can't get it to work with you then i think simply this is your own problem that's all.

Do you understand what an alpha is? By definition, an alpha is expected to work in some subset of cases, nobody should expect it to work for every possible use case. Judging from the posts here (I haven't had a chance to try Vortex for myself yet) it works for some people, which satisfies the requirements for releasing an alpha. If you want some guarantee it will work for you before trying, wait for it to finish alpha and get through beta to an official release before trying it out. Otherwise you have to accept the risk that the developers have not resolved your particular use case yet.

Game not recognized Mods not recognized, nameless end no option to install Mods disappearing after installation or not working correctly

I will wait till the Vortex is out of alpha and Beta for now.
Will stick what works, Nexus mod manager maintained via GitHub Current Nexus Mod Manager v0.64.1 by DuskDweller.

Wish the developers of Vortex at nexusmods.com the the best. ;)
Will checking regularly how it going with Vortex.

The game is Fallout 4. I have reinstalled vortex 2 times and 1 time after reinstalling the complete game fresh and wasted halve a day. uninstalled vortex and NMM( which was unusable after vortex installation) then reinstalled NMM and Fallout 4. No further info then that, so for me its useless to wast a post on on vortex-feedback page(s). To give your developers team totally no information at all. Current setup of Fallout 4 and NMM works.

The above sound harsh, but do not mean it that way. its just the facts. ;)

Really curious if Vortex can install mods bigger than 2gb.
