Vortex Not keeping my file name

[NewYears1978]

I renamed all my 400 mods the way I want them to appear in mod manager.

There are about 1/4th that are showing the official mod name (which is sometimes trash)

 

Is there a way to prevent this behavior..I want it to ONLY USE MY MODS FILENAME.

 

Why does it use my filenames on 3/4th of them but not the other 1/4th?

 

 

Thanks in advance.

If you named them before installing them, the official name may override this. You should try to only rename the mod after you've installed it. It is also possible that when you update the mod the nickname gets reset but I'm not 100%

Also, be aware that if you uninstall the renamed mod, it will go back to the default file name

It was weird because installing them named the folders like my filenames..but some renamed in Vortext itself. But I just renamed the few that were wrong and all is well now.

 

Thanks :smile:

 

Still a bit confused as to why like 300 files import into Vortex with my custom file name but the other 100 don't..very odd.

This is with renaming and putting mods in the mods folder then starting Vortex. See below how bottom half are named the way I named them and top are named after the mod or something.

I can only assume the upper section of that list use the file names imported from the site. Perhaps the archives below that point don't exactly match those found on the site?
