Sharing a full compilation of mods with Votex

[Shmutty]

Why not an ability to share all your personal mods, load orders, plugins and everything else you've done to a particular game to everyone else using the Vortex? It would be like a curated compilation of all you favorite modifications in a one and done download.

 

After being severely disappointed at the reviews and prospects of FO76, I turned back to the faithful FO4 and began digging into all the wonderful mods that had come out since I last played. While sifting through master mods, dependencies, conflicts and other what not I wondered why there was no comprehensive 'One mod to rule them all" out there that I (a shameless computer illiterate) could click a couple of buttons and enjoy someone else's perfected game build.

 

So my question is: would it be possible to add this functionality to the Vortex mod manager? Immediately I think of permissions that would be needed from modders to use their hard work as credit is due for adding hundreds of hours of enjoyment to a game. Is the mod manager even capable of supporting such a feat? I'm sure there are dozens of other concerns my layman's brain can't even fathom.

 

That's why I'm tossing this idea onto the forums. Let those with knowledge and experience give their opinions, encouragement, or even ridicule to it. But if people are willing to share their individual mods, their bodyslide presets and their settlement blueprints, I'm guessing they'd love to show off the mosaic that is all the mods that they pieced together. That would mean such a tool that enabled them to do so would be welcomed.

I also would like this feature. I end up spending WAY too much time fiddling and not enough time playing

This is already a future plan called "Modpaks" or something similar that Nexus Mods is planning

We are planning to tackle "mod packs" which we envision to work somewhat similar to what you are suggesting, while doing our best to ensure it will be beneficial for the modding community as a whole and respect the mod authors whose work is, of course, crucial to the site and community.
