Back in October 2022, we announced the arrival of Tim (Halgari) to the Nexus Mods team. We touched briefly on the future of Vortex and potential 2.0 updates. Things went a bit ‘stealth mode’ after...
Vortex will continue to be our primary, supported mod manager for the foreseeable future and will be the application that we provide to support modding for upcoming titles such as Starfield.
Alongside the continued development of Vortex, Tim (Halgari) has put together a new team of experienced developers from the community to begin work on our next generation of mod management software - dubbed the “Nexus Mods App”. The app team combines the skills of developers who have worked on Vortex, Mod Organizer 2, Wabbajack and several other modding tools.
The Nexus Mods App will be a ground-up reimagining of what we (and you) want our mod manager to be, building on the lessons learnt from Vortex and NMM before that.
Dunno why everyone hates vortex that much, it worked better for me than steam workshop, for instance, in most cases tbh. I can pick a specific mod version, either automatically download or manually import them, switch profiles and games with few buttons…
I’ve also tried thunderstore with r2modman and despite being open source it’s years behind even vortex in terms of usability and UX.
