Testing a FOMOD/NMM/Vortex Installer script


Recommended Posts

I've completely rebuilt the installer script for my mod, and I'm wondering if there's a way to run through it without actually installing anything. In other words, I'd like to see the installer screens and test the conditions, images, etc. but not actually install the mod.

 

Is there a way to do that in something like Vortex?

Short of editing the installer script to not actually install anything, I'd have to say no.

 

If you are concerned about it screwing up what you have installed (i.e. your current project), set the installer to install small text files instead of the actual mod files. Each text file can contain a brief statement as to which files would have been installed. That way you can not only test the images, conditions, etc but you can also test your file source paths.

That's a nifty idea - I might give that a shot. Thanks!
