Vortex is so easy it makes perfect sense for those that like plug n' play. I had one experience where two mods clashed and i had to sort it out the hard way, but that was not very hard to do once i had read the homepage info on both mods. However, if you want to install MODs on Bethesda games including Morrowind, Fallout 3, Fallout 4 (VR), Tale of Two Wastelands (TTW), Skyrim (SE, VR), etc. It was derived from old Fallout mod manager and put to use on several other games. Mod Organizer 2 vs Vortex Both MO2 and Vortex have LOOT built in, making load order issues easier. But by experience Vortex just takes care of it for you. Mod Organizer 2 was developed by Tannin, the same guy who leads Vortex. You can manage archives and load order manually. Vortex has advanced functions that let you do what Ilja says you cannot. I disagree with Ilja here and that is indeed a rare thing. We have nudge other testers and developers for either manager, if you encounter any problems with it. You will get plenty enough support for that as well. However, Vortex is now the official mod manager for Nexus and has developed far from it's growing pains. Most forum regulars are closely involved with MO2 development and testing, so getting help for that in here is easier. Pick either one and you will get adequate support for it. However, for most players Vortex really is easier to handle and more user friendly to use.Īt their current stages, both mod managers are good ones and well supported by community. I disagree with that, because managing archives and load order (Vortex does not allow you to create changes to latter) is far easier. Someone has mentioned Vortex more user friendly than MO2. Originally posted by Ilja:Vortex or MO2 really comes down to preference.
