Vortex issue with simple bannerlord mod

[Palandiell]

Trying to use vortex with 2 very simple bannerlord mods called settlementicons and fix holding.

 

I cannot get any of the mods to run. I have changed the install directory during installation for both bannerlords and vortext, from my sdd to my hdd, is this causing an issue?

 

If not: I DL the od via vortext, enable it, have the other thingy auto enabled too. Go to mods tab in the launcher of bannerlords, check settlmenticons (the other doesn't appear) and now I cannot launch the game anymore, crashes. If I don't select the mod, I can launch the game, but said mod won't run.

 

Where is the issue? These are 2 very simple mods so I do not understand why this is such a headache. In the past I have had NMM (man that installer was so much simpler..) in a different install location than the original one intended to be. So this shouldn't be an issue either. Then what is?

You should not be using the game launcher if you are using Vortex. You'll need to launch the game via the play button in the top left corner inside Vortex to ensure the load order that is defined in the load order tab is loaded.

 

See: https://wiki.nexusmods.com/index.php/Modding_Bannerlord_with_Vortex for more information.

That sadly hasn't solved anything. Reinstalled Vortext and the mods, launched as described via Vortex, still no results. In the game launcher itself I checked the files (they seem to be always unchecked without manually changing the status) and launched again via vortex. Still no results.

Do you have your Mod Staging folder for Vortex on the same drive as the game?

 

Also check if you're using Windows Defender, and if so, turn of "Controlled Folder Access", something isn't allowing Vortex to write anything

No, that folder seems to be on the C drive (my SDD), whereas Vortex/Bannerlord is on my E drive (my HDD). I assume by your question I should change this location to somewhere on the E drive? If yes, anywhere you would recommend or is it not that important where as long as it is on the same drive as the game?

It should be on the same drive as your game, however, DO NOT put it inside the STEAM folder or your game folder, put it somewhere like E:\Mods\ or E:\Vortex Mods\
