Request: Transfer or Import/Export profiles

[Grestorn]

I want to keep my Fallout 4 and my Skyrim configurations between the standard and the VR version in sync.

 

For that, I'd need a way to transfer a profile from the standard version of these games to their VR counterpart. This doesn't seem to be possible (that's why I had to create my modding-config for SkyrimVR from scratch in 0.14.0 after I had original done it with 0.13.6 - which didn't support SkyrimVR yet - by linking the SE directories to their VR counterparts).

 

Also, since the actual mod config, download data and profile info seems to be buried deep within Vortex' local database, there's no easy way to copy/backup/restore this information. You can only backup all of Vortex' data, which can be a bit inkonvenient.

 

Would you consider adding a way to export this data - especially the profiles - into some external file which can be saved separately? And maybe even be imported for another (similar) game?

 

I know you probably have loads of other things at hand, but I still wanted to make this suggestion, maybe there's a list for things to be done sometime in the future :smile:

Not that I need to tell you - but also make sure Feature requests are submitted through Vortex, so they can be tracked and not get lost.

Maybe this will help some other casual reader...
