I have included in my advice here some basic troubleshooting and best practices for avoiding bugs. In general, the support forums for Vortex are helpful, and the devs themselves make regular appearances there and occasionally help out, so please go there to resolve bugs with the program.

The only mods that cannot be installed with Vortex, are ones that cannot be installed by any mod manager. Very large mods that have always needed at least a partly manual installation like Weaponsmith Extended will still need this.

Just be aware if you need to ask for help, that mod authors who say to not use Vortex may not be willing to offer you support if you have problems. Installation and setup for single drive users is straight forward.

Following the installation and set up guides provided by Nexus will be fine. I go over how to fix this in the File Configuration section. After launching Vortex for the first time, it should automatically detect your games.

Just ignore my copy of Stardew Valley hanging out in the photo. As I already have Vortex set up, Fallout 4 is no longer appearing in the Discovered tab. It has been moved to the Managed Tab, and in fact, as you can see in the upper left corner, Vortex is currently in Fo4 mode. Now, choose a location for your downloads.

This must be a different directory than your mod staging folder. DO NOT set this to be your default computer downloads folder. It needs to be a permanent file location. This is why you need the Mod Staging Folder to be on the same drive as the main game, and it is the only deployment method you can use for most Bethesda games. Any errors you had related to deployment should vanish on their own now. Restart Vortex and check that these settings have been saved before moving on to Step 1.

I had to re-install Vortex once before it behaved properly. Rather than each mod being organized individually, as is the case with previous mod managers, Vortex uses a combination of mod groups and rules that define the relationships between individual mods, in order to build a load order. Before you download any mods, you need to configure your Vortex Groups to ensure a stable load order. Mod groups are chunks of mods that all should be loaded in roughly the same place in the load order, regardless of what they contain.

The confusion can come when groups are named for the types of mods that usually have to be assigned there. Example: Mods that edit the physical space of the world, such as city overhaul mods, always have be loaded late in your load order, or their changes might be overridden by a different mod. Mod groups are not the same as mod categories, and you can assign a mod to any group, regardless of what it does. I chose my groups based on this guide , which was designed to help NMM users obtain the most stable load order.

It should be noted that you cannot change the names of the default Vortex groups or the rules between them, but you can add new groups and rules to the core set that is already there.

I chose to make myself a master list of what I use each default group for, but you may choose to simply bypass those groups all together and make your own entire group list.

Here are my groups in their load order, with a brief note of what gets put in each one. Bolded groups are custom ones that I added myself. This is highly recommended because you may need to reinstall the mod from its archive if you remove your old mod manager. Archives will be stored in the Vortex download folder, which can be defined before running this tool if required.

At this next stage, it is important you wait patiently for the process to run. If you have a lot of complex mods installed it will take some time. Vortex may appear to freeze when processing big mods. The downloaded file is usually a.

Once it is opened you can see the module files. Now you have to move the newly downloaded mod folders into your games module folder. Just drag and drop it directly from the opened RAR file. In this case you also need to move the Native folder in there to change some default settings of the game. Click accept when it asks to overwrite or replace any files. From there you have to select the mod that you have just moved into the games modules folder.

The mod has now successfully been installed to your game. Click play and start up the game. Enjoy your new mod. First thing you should do is download the Vortex mod manager. It can be download from nexusmods download page. Once it is download open the. Then search for Bannerlord and add it as a managed game. You also have to log in to your nexusmods account through the Vortex app before you can download mods.
