Mods installed, but no Plugins?

[Durete]

Hello everyone.

I am going to live without internet for a while, so I am preparing my fallout 4 with as much expansion type mods as possible.

Anyway, I am noticing that a fair share of mods that I install and enable in vortex. show no plugin at all.


Is this normal? Or should every mod add a plugin?

And if it should add a plugin, how do I fix this?


Thank you.

Almost every mod should have a plugin, have you tried to close vortex and open it again and check the plugins tab? i had some problems with load order not changing before and fixed doing that.

not sure about your problem tho, maybe it's a problem about vortex not recognizing the path where mods/plugins should be placed. but i dunno how to fix that sorry :/

Yea lots of mods don't give me a plugin, even mainstream ones.

Like "Beantown Interiors" does not give me one.

Which means that I can only do the load order manually, or by putting mod dependencies in Vortex.

Yeah, Beantown Interiors does NOT have a plugin. It shouldn't have one. I'm guessing Vortex is working as intended.

 

There's a handy feature on Nexus that lets you preview the file contents. That's what I just now used to check Beantown Interiors, as I don't use it. So it's really easy to check if something has a plugin or not.
