I have an issue to report regarding the installation of certain fomod based mods.

When installing them through Vortex, they end up with 1 or more mangled files rendering them unusable.

However installing them through another mod manager such as MO2 they work fine. I will post an actual example below

 

This example is specific to fallout new Vegas but probably applies to other games using the Gamebryo engine as well.

 

Example when installing the mod configuration menu with Vortex the file start_menu.xml found under (vortex staging folder)>(mod folder)>menu>options ends up looking like this https://pastebin.com/3JDh7iWY

However if I install it through MO2 that exact same file ends up looking like this https://pastebin.com/cVYjLkZt

 

Now I am no programmer but the Vortex installed file looks like garbage data to me, while the MO2 version looks more like an actual file with some structure.
However to further test things I decided to boot my game with the Vortex file. Which resulted in some buggy UI elements on my screen before my game crashed.

I then purged my deployment in Vortex. Replaced the Vortex file with the MO2 installed file. Deployed again and booted my game and this time everything went fine with no weird issues noticed.

 

So with all that I can't help but conclude that vortex incorrectly handled the fomod which resulted in 1 file being pretty much mangled. Seeing as I haven't found other posts on this forum but have definitely heard of other users with similar problems I decided to make a post here about the issue as to report it.

 

Edit: I did some further testing. This issue occurs on both Vortex version 12.11 and 12.10. When reverting back to version 12.9 The problematic file completely disappears. However it does let me start the up the game and the mod itself appears to be functioning correctly. For good measure I did not have any mods with file conflicts with the mod configuration menu enabled when testing this.

With what version of Vortex did you install the MCM exactly?

If it's 12.9 or earlier yeah you are probably fine, as my edit would suggest.

 

This seems to be an issue related to 12.10 and 12.11 The 2 most recent (stable) updates.

 

Also UI replacers like Vanilla UI plus and Darnified come with their own versions of the problematic file. I don't think that's the case for you but I figured it might be worth mentioning. Since that would also indirectly fix the issue.

The inability to correctly install some FoMods is known and has been discussed. It will install some perfectly and others not at all.

 

It is caused by not having a standard format for FoMods.

I have an issue to report regarding the installation of certain fomod based mods.

When installing them through Vortex, they end up with 1 or more mangled files rendering them unusable.

However installing them through another mod manager such as MO2 they work fine. I will post an actual example below

 

This example is specific to fallout new Vegas but probably applies to other games using the Gamebryo engine as well.

 

Example when installing the mod configuration menu with Vortex the file start_menu.xml found under (vortex staging folder)>(mod folder)>menu>options ends up looking like this https://pastebin.com/3JDh7iWY

However if I install it through MO2 that exact same file ends up looking like this https://pastebin.com/cVYjLkZt

 

Now I am no programmer but the Vortex installed file looks like garbage data to me, while the MO2 version looks more like an actual file with some structure.

However to further test things I decided to boot my game with the Vortex file. Which resulted in some buggy UI elements on my screen before my game crashed.

I then purged my deployment in Vortex. Replaced the Vortex file with the MO2 installed file. Deployed again and booted my game and this time everything went fine with no weird issues noticed.

 

So with all that I can't help but conclude that vortex incorrectly handled the fomod which resulted in 1 file being pretty much mangled. Seeing as I haven't found other posts on this forum but have definitely heard of other users with similar problems I decided to make a post here about the issue as to report it.

 

Edit: I did some further testing. This issue occurs on both Vortex version 12.11 and 12.10. When reverting back to version 12.9 The problematic file completely disappears. However it does let me start the up the game and the mod itself appears to be functioning correctly. For good measure I did not have any mods with file conflicts with the mod configuration menu enabled when testing this.

 

 

It's currently a problem with Vortex, Tannin knows about it and will be fixing it for the next release, it was caysed due to trying to Optimize FOMOD code, and instead it ends up corrupting the xmls.

Pickysaurus or BigBizkit covered this in another thread.

 

A fix will be coming soon
