Install mods – Here’s how
How do you install the mods? The first port of call for mod fans is Nexus Mods. On The Veilguard’s newly created page you can see at a glance what’s currently available.
Depending on the mod, the installation looks slightly different. Some mods can be easily selected and downloaded on the site. Additionally, get the Vortex Mod Manager on Nexus Mods and the installation should go smoothly. You can then switch the mod on and off at any time in the manager. If crashes occur, you can easily determine which mod is responsible.
Others, however, are installed manually. Here you usually have to download a zip file and follow the instructions provided on Nexus Mods or in the Readme. In most cases, the individual steps are clear to understand.

All your saves are stored there.
