I also attempted to set up the Mod Installation Pattern properly for the. Dropping a CK2 mod and its folder into the mod folder allows it to function perfectly as it should, but again I cannot seem to figure out which mods are conflicting without Vortex. My Troubleshooting: Because it is such a niche search, a 2 hour Google search has turned up nothing. The Mods tab in the launcher does not even activate as if a mod has been dropped into the mod folder manually. My Problem: Although mods installed through Vortex appear as they should in the mod folder as shortcuts, they are NOT recognized by the game or game launcher. Said file is NOT the one with the dummy.txt in it. Mods can be dropped into Vortex and the mod shortcuts end up in the mod file they are supposed to be in (which I moved from Documents to the same drive as the game). My Progress: The game is recognized and can be launched by Vortex. In this expansion, you are able to start the game even earlier than before because you now have the choice of beginning your playthrough in 867 AD.
To do this, I have followed the tutorial for 'Creating a game extension for Vortex' as per the wiki on it. Crusader Kings II The Old Gods is another DLC for the critically acclaimed strategy game Crusader Kings II set in medieval times. As the title suggests, I am attempting to get Vortex to install mods for Crusader Kings 2 so that I can hopefully figure out which mods are causing me problems in one way or another.
