IaeyanElyuex Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Granted, Nexus Mod Manager wasn't pretty or whatever, but it was comprehensive, actually allowed us to easily control load order, and worked between installations. Vortex doesn't have an easy load order override, and besides that is just "extra". I just had to reinstall my games after replacing my drive, and now Vortex isn't even loading my mods, ignoring them completely despite their presence in the folder with the staging file in it, opting instead to use the launcher off of Steam, which is installing workshop mods I wasn't using in that instance. Nexus Mod Manager would have identified the mods and then asked me to sort them in load order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnarly1 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 NMM never went anywhere to come back from. https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M48A5 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) Back from where? It never left, it just isn't officially supported by Nexus Mods. Go to the Vortex download page and scroll down the page to the link to Nexus Mod Manager. Or use the link above. :ninja: by gnarly1 Edited January 31, 2021 by M48A5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are loads of posts from people who have replaced disks, or moved disks and any number of disk/pebak issues with successful outcomes.It'll work out best for you if you do that.

Nexus Mod Manager would have identified the mods and then asked me to sort them in load order. No, NMM wouldn't have identified the mods, because NMM along with all other Mod Managers store their info on the hard driveThat would've happened with NMM, MO2, MO, and Vortex as well, as all mod managers store their data in order to keep track of the mods they manage. This isn't exclusive to Vortex, this was caused by you replacing the hard drive. If you haven't completely ruined your install, you can get help in the vortex support forum. BTW, you can select all your mods, in Vortex, with CTRL+A, and then select "GUESS ID" and it will grab all of the mod info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Seems the OP's question has been answered. This isn't something switching to NMM will fix, but if you choose to do so we don't provided any support for it (and haven't since 2016). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
