Games installed on more than 1 drive and mods won't deploy for second drive

[Splunge]

Hi all.

I'm running Windows 10 on a system with a C drive primary with OS and several games including Skyrim installed. I have a second drive D with overrun data and some games/programs including Vortex and Oblivion (recently installed). I believe Vortex mounts mods to C. I play a heavily modded Skyrim and can easily DL, install and enable mods using Vortex.

After installing Oblivion, Vortex recognised it and in Vortex seems to install and enable mods but they don't appear active in game. Vortex notes the error and asks me to go to settings and set mod staging folder to drive with Oblivion installed.

 

a) how do I do this

b) will it mess up Skyrim and other games on C drive?

 

Can I stage mods onto 2 different drives?

 

Thanks!

Hi Splunge,

 

Each staging folder is game specific. So your Skyrim staging folder can be on C and the Oblivion one on D.

 

Vortex should direct you to the right place to update the folder location but if not it's under Settings -> Mods
