Installed and deployed mods do no appear in plugins or mod list in game

[Drwashakie]

Hello there,

 

I have installed ten mods using vortex and deployed them after their installation. When i have switched to the plugins screen they do not appear. I realize some mods do not have .esp and therefore have no plugin; however, after loading FO4 with f4se and checking the loaded mods, the missing mods do not appear. I would greatly appreciate anyone's help. Thank you.

The in game mod list also only shows the plugins.

Correct, the in game mod list only shows the plugins. How can I fix this so that I can use all my mods? Thanks.

Then how do you know that the missing mods do not appear?

I have installed mods and deployed them. When I push deploy they do not appear in the plugins tab of Vortex but they are still enabled. They do not appear in the mod list in game either. Im wondering how I can get these mods to show in game even though they are not on the plugins tab. Or, how can I get these mods that say they're enabled to appear on my plugins tab so they appear in game?

You can't make them show up in the in game mod list.

 

The mod list in game and the plugin tab on Vortex both take information from the plugin.txt file that FO4 uses to read in plugins (and only plugins). The mods that don't have a plugin are texture, sound, mesh, and other files. On the mod's description page, the author will tell you if you need to add anything to a ini file (which is located in your Documents folder), to force FO4 into reading the file (note that this is only for BSA's).

 

The game will automatically pick up all other files.

 

The only way to actually verify that they are in game, is by actually playing the game and seeing if the changes are there.

Well the other way, that I recommend, is to use the Vortex mod window mod dropdown "Open in the File Manager".

Look at what files the mod includes.

Now switch to your game directory - and see if they are there. If they are - they deployed correctly.

If they are not there - report back here. But they will be.

Great thanks for your help. I will give it a look. You are correct, all of the missing plugins are textures and sounds.

Then there probably are no missing plugins at all since most texture and sound mods dont have one. :)
