Let us again assume that all we want to do is have My Mod A, My Mod B, and My Mod C loading before Example Mod 1 and Example Mod 2. However, with Vortex's group management feature we could accomplish the same thing in broader strokes, limiting the number of rules we need. This will sort your plugin list according to the six rules we just set, leaving us with My Mod A, My Mod B, and My Mod C loading before both Example Mod 1 and Example Mod 2, as we had intended. If you did this correctly you should end up with six rules like these:Ĭlose the rule setting dialogue (bottom right button) and sort your plugin list by clicking the "Sort now" button in the toolbar. Repeat the same steps for Example Mod 2.esp (on the left). Next, change the selected plugin on the right to My Mod B.esp and add that rule as well before doing the same for My Mod C.esp.

To do so click "Manage Rules" in the plugins toolbar to bring up the "Set Rules" dialogue. One way of achieving our goal of having My Mod A, My Mod B, and My Mod C load before Example Mod 1 and Example Mod 2 would be to set a total of six individual (or per plugin) rules. In this document we will go over both options and how to set up the rules accordingly. There are two ways to accomplish this: using several, individual plugin specific rules, or one group rule. Looking at this example load order for Skyrim, let's assume that we wanted to change it so that the three mods My Mod A, My Mod B, and My Mod C load before both Example Mod 1 and Example Mod 2. Vortex gives you the ability to create rules that determine when a specific plugin loads in relation to another.
