ThelebKaarna Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Howdy! Any way to NOT have ALL your downloaded mods show up in ALL your profiles? OK, so let's say you have "PROFILE A", which has 100 mods installed and activated (Skyrim SE for this example). You then go to: "Add Skyrim Special Edition Profile" (not by making a "Clone" of PROFILE A, but creating a whole new one all by itself). You name it "PROFILE B", setting both "This profile has it's own save games" and "This profile has it's own game settings" to "Yes". You then "Enable" Profile B and install and activate 100 new mods in it. So PROFILE A has 100 mods installed/activated and PROFILE B has 200. Problem is, when you re-enable PROFILE A and go back into it, you now see all 200 mods (it's original 100 which are still activated from previously, PLUS the additional 100 installed by PROFILE B - which are all in an 'uninstalled' state). Any way around this? I'd ideally love to be able to install a mod in one profile and not have it show up in all my other profiles. Any comments, ideas, workarounds, etc appreciated=) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 You could use the MODS Filter... And the PLUGINS filter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmm200 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Your only choice is to filter as above. Vortex only supports one directory per game, and all your mods for that game will be there.This is a choice I really don't mind. I view the mods for Skyrim SE as a palette. I have a base set of mods I always use, and freely swap in others depending on what I want this profile to do this time..I am running about six profiles on Skyrim SE ATM.

Any comments, ideas, workarounds, etc appreciated=) The filters work for me. I have a profiles situation similar to what you describe. By selecting the filter "Enabled" I see only the mods that are active for each profile. If I want to browse my "Disabled" mods, I then switch to that filter.

ThelebKaarna Posted December 4, 2018 Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 Thanks guys for the comments, most helpful! And thanks @HadToRegister for the screenshots, appreciate you taking the time. I had previously played around with the Enabled/Disabled Filter but didn't perceive its usefulness in this particular instance until now. Will definitely be using it more! Another thing I'm gonna play around with is using the "Highlight", and possibly even the "Categories" Columns, for Profile organization more at-a-glance. Fun stuff!
