ImTheOneTrueRick Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I downloaded the frontier, witch is a little over 12 gb , with vortex, but vortex kept ramping up its resource usage until it had eaten all my ram and caused my computer to crash right after the download completed, now the mod is stuck on finalizing for the last 3 hours and I cannot find the mod file in the appropriate folders, or stop it from finalizing. help, please, ive been looking forward to this for years, and something always has to go wrong for me right before the moment of truth....

rmm200 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Keep at it. I am intrigued by this mod.. I am also not sure Fallout NV is stable enough to handle it.I am very interested in user feedback. First, locate the mod archive. It should be wherever you have Vortex/Downloads defined. You don't want to have to download it again.(Note for the future: download huge mods manually. Less to go wrong) Well maybe first - blow Vortex away. Use Task Manager if necessary. Validate the archive using WinZip. Vortex does not work well with broken downloads. Start Vortex and drag the mod to the Vortex file drop area. Click Install. What happens? Click Enable. Click Deploy. What happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zavier01 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Same problem. Went through Vortex to download The Frontier. (Will do it manually for any large mods in the future, live and learn). The Frontier has been finalizing for 4 days now. Here are the things I've done, with no success: 1) Restarted Vortex (after killing it in task manager) 2) Looked for any trace of a file in my download files (New Vegas, and every other game I mod just in case) 3) Restarted my PC 4) Did a complete PC search for "Frontier"... (hold the phone...) OK. I was searching SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Fallout New Vegas. But I forgot about Users\NAME\AppData\Roaming\Vortex\downloads\falloutnv. Much apologies, great oof. I'll show myself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanderat Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Keep at it. I am intrigued by this mod.. I am also not sure Fallout NV is stable enough to handle it. I am very interested in user feedback.I have had good luck downloading and installing it through Vortex. I am premium member, might make a difference. Frontier/FNV is plenty stable provided you have installed all the prerequisites that the Frontier team advise. And those are pretty much standard, (NVAC, NVTF, JIP, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 If you close Vortex while a download is finalising it will get stuck. There is a fix for this coming in v1.4 but I can't give an ETA on that release yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
