Vortex Mod Launcher

Hello together,

yesterday i added support for 7 Days to Die to the Vortex mod manager from nexus-mods, because i like to use it.

Since it is all open-source, i shared it on github and it got merged. Just in case anyone likes to use it, make sure the root directory of modlets you want to manage with Vortex is the "Mods" folder. I only tested it with the SMX-UI-Modlets for the moment.

Greetings Nelson32

 
Thanks for doing this. Will check it out. Not seeing support yet in 0.16.15

FYI:

Code:
We will enable the button when Vortex 0.17.x goes to stable with support for those games.
so until then, there will be no Download with Manager link on Nexus for Vortex to handle.

 
BTW, I finally tried to install a modlet using the Vortex installer. It is placing modlets into the game directory instead of the Mods directory. I submitted a bug report. It looks like a very simple way for new users to enjoy modlets once the bug is fixed.

Its not a bug as such, you need to repackage the zip to include the Mods folder ;)

I figured that would be a work around, but its silly the Vortex tool doesn't allow you to point to an install folder.

 
I repackaged all my modlets and it works well. If you have a modlet called MyGuns is packaged as a zip called MyGuns and that .zip contains: Mods/MyGuns

I am preparing to do this to all my mods as well but could you tell me if the Mod.xml is required, or just the folder structure?
