Darkest Dungeon mod doesn't work with Vortex

[totya4]

Hi!

 

Vortex works perfectly for me with Fallout 4 with many mods, but I downloaded one mod to the Darkest Dungeon (Official Epic version, without any dlc), and seems to me doesn't work, because the original file doesn't change after mod avtivated. "Google my friend", so I found similar problems on the vortex github page. And, inside the vortex, I see "beta, please provide feedbak" text. Then this is a feedback.

 

The mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/darkestdungeon/mods/1159

 

This is a very simple mod, this modify one file in a directory.

 

Thank you ahead!

 

[Edit 1. As I see all mods need copy to the "mods" directory, and I see this mod here, this is mean Vortex working]

 

[Edit 2. That mod modded filename wrong, I corrected it, and I wrote this problem to the mod author]

[Edit 2.1 : on 01 feb 2021 the mod author corrected the modded filename]

 

[Edit 3. Seems to me "<gamedir>mods" folder doesn't work in the Epic version. Mod install need similar way like as Fallout 4 (override file in the game directory). If I copy/override the (corrected) mod file manually, the mod works.

 

Perhaps can I choose in Vortex between two operations of this game:

 

1. Vortex use mods folder (I think steam version use it)

 

2. Vortex use traditionally game directory override way (like as Epic version of game)]

 

[Edit 4. I noticed, mod folder works in the Epic versions too, but need enable mods right to the savegame. The checkbox was invisible for me, because very dark.

 

Shorty: mod install to mod folder in this game not enough, need enable mods one by one inside the game, right to the savegame. This is slighly uncomfortable way with the Vortex mod manager. So I suggest what I wrote in Edit 3]
