Guest deleted34304850 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Vortex really didn't like a lot of adult mods. And a lot of the adult mods were, not something I needed however. I needed the adult mods due to just wanting everyone to better looking skin in Skyrim for a more realistic effect and said mod needs the adult mods or no skin and so far I haven't found any good skin mods that are purely here in nexus that are for men. [Not topic derailing give me a few] I'd find a few good skin mods for women but yeah dang Vortex just practically spassmed at a lot of mods not liking each other and I'd fix the priorities and load time but then some of them would need a different pre-req thing loaded that isn't compatable with the other stuff. So having nice skin or being a vampire (Better vampire mod) or having nice armor and weapons (Better Armor/Better weapons mod) had just been a very bad combo I guess with very few ways around it. I like that it helps me figure out what works together and doesn't though so at least that's a plus? I guess I have to figure out a way to work with it being unhappy with various factors. It's it's own puzzle I'd say. I hope it ends up having some sort of compatibility mode added in or something that can help out a bit for those who are less mod savy than everyone else. (I wouldn't go to the extent of saying I'm stupid or anything, I just have a hard time with modding stuff..... Ack.) NMM will be missed. :sleep: Time to start of fresh again. Using Vortex is really hard.... A lot of people's guides of making things cooperate are so vastly different so it gets distracting and confusing. vortex is a mod manager, it neither likes or dislikes mods, its a mod manager it manages mods. it has no way to know what a mod contains outside of the files that are in the mod. for instance, it has no idea that a mod that brings in a new gun is different to a mod that brings in new armour. to vortex it is just a mod. it is not judging your mods or you for installing them. using vortex is different, but its not hard. you know what makes it hard? when you use it without doing any research. in terms of the issues you're having with mods requiring other mods - surely you had the same issues with your previous mod manager, whatever it was, and you resolved them. vortex will also allow you to resolve the same load order issues but you have to know what you're doing and how to do it in vortex. in these forums are dozens of posts that are similar to your post. in each post the issues have been overcome with help from the community. my advice - read those posts - ignore all the BS and look at the actual solutions and apply them to your difficulties. By now, every issue a user has faced through not following basic instruction or not understanding the program have been overcome. The answers are out there. you just have to find them.

sopmac45 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I use adult mods but don't use sex ones. So do a large number of others. so your view is wrong on adult mods. What is right for me can be wrong for you and vice-versa, just in case your post was to reply to my statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizietemblesssma Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Off the recent discussion topic but back to the original question here's my tuppence worth; learning to mod the later fallout games with NMM I was presented often with having to choose which mod should overwrite the files of another, if I chose wrong then a) I didn't always know which mod that was I had overwritten and b) I had to go and re-install the other mod, because its files really had gone from the game's installation!With Vortex no files from a mod are overwritten, and the process by which Vortex asks you to choose which version of a file is made a hardlink in the game installation nicely shows you what the mod was that you chose to de-prioritise (that's not a word is it).Clicking on the little lightning sign allows to swap priority of files with two clicks. If this was possible with NMM I managed to never find it!So even though I played through all of FO4 and modded the hell out of it by the end and was very used to NMM I wish I had had Vortex instead when I started.

DoctorKaizeld Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I agree it has a lot of features that would have been great to start with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmm200 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 vortex sucks and very confusing. after my subscription is up with nexus i`m through with them. nexus is just a bunch of money grubbers. Interesting attitude about the biggest free repository of mods anywhere, and multiple free mod managers.Enjoy your travels - elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
