This type of mod is especially common with the previous generation Bethesda games (Oblivion, New Vegas, Fallout 3) - and those games are essentially unmoddable with vortex unless FOMODs and OMODS work correctly. The trouble is that this places the component directories into the game- which are not in a functional install and the mod simply will not work like this as the files are all in the wrong paths. No menu shows up - and the mod ends up merely getting extracted instead of allowing the user to select components. If you are prompted to replace or merge files, click the yes button.This problem is subtle and easy to miss- but FOMOD based mods with menus do not work with Vortex as set up by this script.Paste the copied folder into the “Data” folder in Fallout 4.Find the location of your Fallout 4 installation, which is usually: C:\Program Files (x86)\ Steam\steamapps\common.In most cases, you would want to copy the whole folder.Copy the relevant files into a new folder.To prevent files from becoming lost or jumbled, use the “Extract to…” option.To extract the downloaded items into a new folder, use software like WinRAR.Go to the folder where you stored the downloaded mods.


When you installed the game, the location of the folder was decided. Go to the Fallout 4 directory folder and open it.Open the Fallout4Custom.ini file and make the necessary changes.
