    If you download SFSE to your steamapps game folder, do you still open the game through vortex? Or do you have to open the game through the SFSE icon within that game folder?

    • @DatsRandom
      @DatsRandom 9 місяців тому +3

      Has to be the SFSE loader, Vortex will just launch base Starfield application, so you have to manually make vortex launch the SFSE loader or launch the loader through the steamapps game folder.

    As much as I hate to admit it, I need help. Before the last update, I had everything working quite well. After the update, it stopped working. I went to the Nexus and got the new SFSE file and installed it. Now the game starts to load and stops right after the initial text is displayed.
    My initial thought is to just do a fresh install of the game and start the process over but I am hoping for a better idea. I never had this trouble with Skyrim or any of the Fallout games.

    • @CaptPanda

    OK, I get the fact that one has to make an ini file and insert some code, one can get by simply copy pasting. Into document.game's, starfied directory. Then one download's, install vortex. Vortex requries the data as to exactly where it's suppose to install the particular mod. Using steam, it's generall a mod folder inside the game name directory. In which I've done previous numerious time with no issue.
    However this is my first bethesda game and apparently they don't provide a particual directory inside the actual game name directory.
    Going out on a limb, do I just choose using steam, the game name starfield directory, make one inside, or is there one I'm just not finding already in the game name via steam common starfield.
    At 74, I'm not the brightest blub in the bunch, but then I'm not the dimest.

      @@CaptPanda If and when on the rare occasion's that Vortex is unable to find the correct directory and or file withing the directory. Your correct in pointing it to the Game's Directory with the game's exe with in it. The issue I seem to be having available mods that require placeing them in the document, my game, game name directory. When there mandate to do for other mod's in the steam,appdata,common,game name directory. Some of the mod's since the advent of the xbox'er's being able to do what they can now do. And not describing a particual mod is for that of xbox player's and not just PC, steam player's. Those who have placed mod's for PC's for year's have done it correctly. There is a sudden new individual's who when playing on a console their whole life, where as they have never made a mod, are now making mod's, but don't alway's state as the more experience pc modder's who for year's have been making mods for pc. With my limited knowledge, I can alter a mods. ini file or txt file thus creating a mod simular to the original, but then it's not the original and can cause issue's to other's who think it is. I believe I've stated, if not I'll do it agaain. I've only had issue's since the advent of xbox'er's and their ability to place mod's, and don't follow Nexus rule's. Some do, and some don't. That's seem to be my issue. I'm old, but know how to follow direction's to the "T". But when the direction's call for one to be more knowledgeable than a normal gammer. More in line with one being a pc geek. I've got issue's.

    Loved modding Starfield until this year. They made it a pain with all the newer mods requiring the plugins.txt file. I just stopped playing the game and went to cyberpunk. Hopefully the newer mods in Starfield will stop with the plugins.txt at some point. Idk why they did this. So much easier with the custom Starfield.ini

  • @wmgthilgen
    @wmgthilgen 8 місяців тому

    With there being different device's meaning a PC, an Xbox version on PC etc. Vortes is having issue's installing the various mod's needing other mod's designed for a PC for instance, when installing them for the Xbox version and visa versa. Read some of the suggested direction's on how exactly to adhere to or the mod won't work and or cause issue's. One has to be pretty much a PC GEEK. And then there those mod's submitted that don't have suggested direction's but should. Nexus and the use of Vortex prior to the advent of xbox player having their new ability to mod games on a pc, then use them on their xbox. And now, it's considerable safe assuming one KNOW'S which directory they are mandated to install various mod. Do it manually! Having multiple choice's of where to insert any one particular mod versus a another is assinine.
    The how too's content provider's offer in their video's don't alway's assit one in their endevor to install mod's. When they show how easy it is, and don't state which device their installing them on.
    I'm some 74 year's old and have been playing video game's, and using Nexus and or Steam which have different installer's to obtain various quality of play mod's. And in the 12 year's I've been playing, this is my first and assumably last Bethesda game. I've never seen such a convoluted mess, when it come's to installing mod's, as I've done envolving this game. And it's only been since xbox device's are now able to both download or upload mod's to Nexus. And it's obvious, the new xboxer's converted to pc modder's don't know what their doing.
