BG3 Mod Manager Mods Not Loading Into My Game With Patch 7 - Issue Resolved, Thanks! :)

[TheBlueBadger]

So I am currently using mods from the Nexus with the BG3 Mod Manager and have about 30 mods that I have been using in my games. However, I am having an issue where I will have the mods set up and exported to my game. But then when I launch it, none of the mods show up in my load order except for the the ones that are also available in the new in game mod manager. I get an error saying that "the mods cannot be located". I then exit the game and go back into the manager and see that all of the mods for some reason are deactivated despite me saving and exporting them to my game.

I have updated all of my mods as well as the BG3 Mod Manager to the latest versions and am running the latest script extender. And I have also verified the cache of my game. But at this point, I am running out of ideas as to how to fix this and I really don't want to have to restart my game from the beginning. So I was curious if anyone else has been having this issue and if so, if and how were you able to fix it?

Under normal circumstances I'd agree. And I already have been making a list of the ones I know are broken because of that to delete which is honestly fine since those ones are mods that I either no longer need or intend to use anymore. However, this still happens to the mods I have installed from the Nexus that have been updated for the recent patch. Those are the ones that are making me scratch my head at this as there shouldn't be a reason for those ones to not load into the game.

I'm having the same problem.

Mind you, most of the mods I'd had were failed attempts to get dice skins to actually work (which I couldn't make happen just using the steps and advice on Vortex). The mods that weren't, are QoL mods, and only one is what I'd call "necessary":

It's a camera tweak that lets you look up.
The built-in camera is so confining, constraining... I dislike it immensely.

But since Larian added the mod manager, none of my Vortex mods will work, and sometimes the game itself won't work. **grump**

How did you manage to create a chaos which leads to such a problem to begin with?

I'm afraid you'll have to enable one at a time to see when the modlist is broken. Keep BG3MM open while launching the game, and it will give a red error when a mod breaks the load order.

Repeat until you find the culprit(s).

Took me a few hours after patch 7, but I ended up findling like 3-5 mods that caused it.

Note: any mods which show up in BG3MM with a small parchment icon needs to be updated or manually edited to remove mod fixer (will show "contains mod fixer" when you hover the mouse over it).

Okay, I figured out the problem I, me, my own personal self was having: all it took was deleting every Nexus mod I'd ever used--and I mean completely--and then re-load 'em all back from Nexus.

Didn't have to uninstall anything from the new Mod Manager.

It's working now. Giant PITA, but it's working now.

Also known as updating mods? :)

Actually, no.

I tried using the automatic update function built into Vortex and it really didn't help.
The only thing that got the job done was deleting the mods and their archive files, then reinstalling.

It happens; I've run across a few "install in this order or it won't work" mods before.

Thanks everyone, I was actually able to get things working thanks to all of the feedback! I ended up going through having to deactivate the outdated mods and everything started working and loading properly. Thanks! :)
