Vortex not always loading Reshade in Fallout 4 since 1.0

[Dazaster]

Hello there.

 

Since 1.0, Vortex has started to let Reshade load in Fallout 4 intermittently. If Reshade isn't loaded, exiting the game, then closing Vortex and re-opening it, then loading the game fixes it.

The problem isn't persistent either. Sometimes it won't load if I've added a mod, sometimes it will. It does seem to happen more if Vortex is open but not used for a while, e.g. browsing the Nexus for 10 minutes, then try loading FO4 results in no Reshade.

 

It's not a Reshade problem. Been using ver 4.3.0 since end of May without issue. Only started when updated to Vortex 1.0.

 

I've just got a brand new PC, so have only got around to installing Fallout 4 and New Vegas. Haven't noticed the issue with New Vegas, but also haven't used it as much.

 

On a side note, I'm not a fan of the Vortex icon. It reminds me of an upside down poo emoji. I tried changing it myself, but then Vortex crashes on startup due to it using the icon internally to display on the taskbar, which I obviously can't change.

Just a note.

Vortex does not load mods. The game loads mods.

All Vortex does is set the game directory to point to your deployed mods. Then it's job is done.

Once Reshade shows up properly in your game directory - stop Vortex. You won't need it again until you want to change mods.

If Reshade then works sometime and sometimes not - your problem is not Vortex. Keep looking.

Vortex has nothing to do with whether Reshade runs or not.
