Grouping Reorganization

[Deleted55156592User]

One of the biggest issues i have so far is the constant shuffling of the group manager when i am trying to define groups and load order. Every time i add a new rule, the groups shuffle and move locations, making it incredibly difficult to actually create and organize new groups. Cant that page just be static, so when you add something, you dont have to keep moving it so you can see the groups and the order they follow?

From my experience with Vortex, I would recommend that you initially let Vortex handle the issues of groups and load order. After starting up your game, if you find it not running properly, then go back and make adjustments. Typically, you'll not have to make many. In my case, Vortex is managing three games (six profiles) - one with about 200 mods, another with about 125 mods, and another with about 65 mods. Vortex has placed almost all of my plugins into the default group and then sprinkled the rest into a variety of other groups. In only two instances have I had to reassign a plugin to a different Vortex group. I've had no need to create custom groups. My games run beautifully.

 

Mod conflicts (i.e., overlapping files) are a different issue from groups and load order. You may want to resolve those conflicts before you start up a newly modded game.

Still an issue, kind of amazed I haven't found my then a couple results when searching about this. Then again considering how most well known mod authors tell everyone to switch to any other mod tool or do it manually over using vortex, maybe not many of us actually clicked into that area. Not like I'm expecting this to ever be fixed, I'm sure it's the end users fault for not being able to clearly track lines that are more scrambled then f*#@ing spaghetti thrown against the wall.

Even if you don't add custom groups the list is still less useful then a 3 year old explaining a tax return.
