April 14 - The extension will write all your .psarc mods to the modloader.ini and chunks.txt files based on the Load Order you set in Vortex!
This extension adds The Last of Us Part II Remastered modding support to Vortex Mod Manager.
Works for the Steam version of the game. Other versions may need to specify the installation location manually. Epic users - see note below.
This extension will automatically download and install ndarc. You can use this tool to extract the vanilla .psarc game files. YOU MUST DO THIS STEP FOR LOOSE DATA MODS TO WORK! You will receive a Vortex notification where you can do the extraction.
The extension will also automatically download the ndmodloader, which allows for loading whole .psarc files. Includes Load Order support.
Mod Installation Notes:
Targets the root folder for the game as the default mod installation location (same as the executable location).
Whole .psarc files will be installed to the "mods" folder to be loaded by ndmodloader. You can set the Load Order for these mods in the Load Order tab. The .psarc load order is written to the "modloader.ini" and "chunks.txt" files automatically! The files will also be reset if you Purge mods in Vortex.
Mods with "bin" folder are installed to "build/pc/main".
Pak mods are installed to "build/pc/main/actor97".
Installs Config and Save files to the correct folders in Documents folder.
Epic versions will not be automatically discovered or launch the game properly until I receive some information about the game that is only available after installation. If anyone can follow this guide and let me know the Epic Games ID (AppName), that would be very helpful!
I also need to know the name of the executable in the main game folder.
