Vortex is also very difficult to get support for, yet with MO2 you have the backing of practically this entire sub plus the developer's Discord on the off chance you run into an issue with it.Submit Help Post Submit Text Post Posting Rules FiltersĪdd, ,, , or in the title of your post so posts can be filtered! Unfilter Using Mods MO2 gives you complete freedom without the nonsense or bugs that come with Vortex. Whereas with MO2 you can do the same thing by just dragging and dropping. When you do realize that LOOT isn't perfect and you need to make adjustments, you have jump through a bunch of hoops by setting rules and groupings, and then you have to pray LOOT reacts the way you want it to. Vortex assumes you know nothing about modding and that you wouldn't know better not to completely trust LOOT.
Basically all of Vortex's good features come directly from MO2, but what sets them apart is their philosophy.
Don't you think though there's a problem there if people can't figure out how to get SKSE working with Vortex, but the minute they try it with MO2 it works? I'm sure there is a way to get it working with Vortex, but clearly there's something more you have to do with Vortex, something non-obvious to the user.Īnd as far as MO2 vs Vortex goes, yes I'm fully aware they are not that far apart. I know what you're saying that most problems are on the user.
I turned it into a ZIP and downloaded it onto Vortex, but i'm still unsure if that's correct. Activate it in the left panel.īut I use Vortex, and I'm not sure if this is the proper thing to do.
Add the new archive to MO like you would a manually downloaded mod. In the box that pops up, change it's name to something you'll recognise. Right click the desktop version, and select add to archive.
I'm going off of Nordic's mod guide (because I want to avoid any headache of an unstable game) and this is the path I followed. However, I'm at a bit of a stumbling block when it comes to downloading SKSE. I wanted to try it (I've used MO for the longest time) as I heard it had some nifty features, and I always had some problems here and there with MO. I'm getting back into modding and discovered that a new mod manager has come out.
