Starting out with MO2 can be a bit intimidating. The installer can still be used to create a portable installation of MO2. The installer version is usually preferred for ease of installation. MO2 can be downloaded from GitHub or Nexus Mods. It is now actively maintained by a team of developers, from all backgrounds, and is now able to do much more than Tannin ever envisioned. So, for Bannerlord specifically, I would recommend the OP to try the approach stated in my original comment as it will in the very least serve as good base experience with a lot of hand holding through the process of enjoying a game which will work with mods.MO2 was initially started by Tannin, the creator of the original Mod Organizer, to take care of 64-bit games such as Fallout 4. As I said though, I just try to avoid them anyway and only have slight bias to vortex as it is one I've used most, perhaps OP will try out your suggestion and find it much better and more suitable. I believe it is one of if not the best mod managers out there and at the very least has a useful integration to nexus. I've used it a little bit myself - and ultimately, I was quite impressed. However, I have read a lot of opinions about vortex in general and I'd argue that the opinion I see portrayed most for its current form, is how far its come and how reliable it is now. To clarify I try to avoid mod managers if I can my recommendation is based upon vortex being very user friendly and intuitive for novices (can't comment on mod organiser 2 as I haven't used it). Vortex is basically a pile or ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ when compared to Mod Organizer.Īs someone who has made mods, mods nearly every game I can, makes edits to mods downloaded, uses both small and massive mod lists, Mod Orgsnizer blows Vortex so far out of the water it ain't even remotely funny. Get Mod Organizer 2 and save yourself time & hassle. It's one or the worst possible modding platforms available. You should quite literally never use vortex. I have gone through my load order the past few days as there was an incompatible mod (although all updated) FYI changing culture clashes with some of the other 1.6.1 updated mods.

When downloading working mods do up to three at a time (doing one might be better) this way when you test the game to ensure its working and all modules are getting along if you happen to have a CTD you can isolate which modules causing the issue(s). Originally posted by Psycho-Active:use vortex and start fresh - download updated mods which explicitly express compatibility for the version of the game you're playing.
