Currently it requires UMM to set things up. Vortex will allow you to manage mods and keep track of updates for the mods etc.

So.... About Pathfinder.... Vortex installs mods, its great, but game starts unmodded. If I still need unity mod manager even with vortex then what's the point in this addon? Or I'm doing something wrong?

I play with the Valmod expansion on a server with friends quite frequently, but it's for the 16.4 version of the game. Thing is, I'd also like to poke at the 17.xx+ releases, and it'd be great to be able to switch game versions with mods at the ready without having to redownload from steam every single time.

Perhaps you could have the files from each version in two folders on your PC and just switch between them by copy/pasting?

I'm afraid Vortex can't currently help with that, it can't deal with multiple installs of the same game.
The expectation was that profiles would resolve the need for multiple installs (which it does in most cases) but in your case that obviously isn't so.

It would be best if you sent in a feedback suggestion describing this use case.

I had a feeling it wasn't really doable at this stage but had to ask :) Thanks for the responses, everyone!

You still need UMM at the moment - Vortex basically lets you manage your mods once UMM has configured the game to be moddable.

Now that Enderal has a standalone Steam release do you think you could add Vortex support for it?

No MO2 is better Vortex puts files in game folders MO2 does not

Makes no difference, Vortex works absolutly clean, you can install and uninstal without any problems or mess up your game, Profils working 100% and all the finetuning tools for overwriting, load orders and thousend things more makes Vortex easy to use, and a really great tool for ProModders.
