phlaange Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Vortex fails to detect any of the installed Bethesda games that are working with NMM: Skyrim, Fallout 4, Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, Morrowind. No sign of Dark Souls, either. Not even in "Supported." Extensions for all of these are showing as "Enabled." Or does it not support NTFS Junctions? No, that can't be right, it's found Legend of Grimrock and No Man's Sky. Remind, again, why I'm using this tool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBizkit Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 It definitely supports all of the games you are mentioning. Are you on the beta build 0.16.8? (https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/1?tab=files) If one of the games Vortex supports is not listed under "Supported" in games view, it is because it has either been discovered, or it is already being managed by Vortex (and thus been moved to that group). Have you tried running a quickscan? Either by clicking "Quickscan" in the toolbar in games view, or by going to the "Let's get you set up" dashlet on your dashboard and clicking "Scan for missing games". If Vortex cannot find your games automatically, you can set the game location manually by clicking "Manually Set Location" on the game tile and pointing Vortex to the game's root directory.

phlaange Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 Yes, I ran a Scan for Missing Games. Yes, I ran a Quickscan. Yes, I tried changing the search paths to the root of both drives, just the Games folder on each of the drives, just the Steam folder and a number of other combinations. None of these things made any difference. If Vortex cannot find your games automatically, you can set the game location manually by clicking "Manually Set Location" on the game tile and pointing Vortex to the game's root directory. What game tile? I can't see a game tile for any Bethesda games anywhere in this application. https://i.imgur.com/wvdQahW.png Sure, I can see there are extensions for many games but I can only see tiles for 9 of them. https://i.imgur.com/YQj9f3G.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannin42 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 You have moved Vortex itself and have placed a junction point to c:\program files, right?I'm going to investigate again, but iirc we had this once in the alpha and it was a problem with the backend, not something we caused or could fix in vortex itself. EDIT: Yeah, afraid this is outside our control :(It appears to be a combination of electron and webpack, neither of which we can replace without a massive amount of work so for the time being the Vortex application itself (the part in c:\program files) can't be a junction point.

phlaange Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 You have moved Vortex itself and have placed a junction point to c:\program files, right? I've installed Vortex in a sub-directory of a Junction (using the custom location installer) that isn't \Program Files. Bit poor of electron/webpack. Oh, well. Mystery solved.
