Since this would be considered piracy these days, has anyone bothered to reverse-engineer how Vortex handles collections, so they can just be imported straight to Mod Organizer?

Every single fucking other application has bend the knee to Nexus, and forces you to fucking download files one by one, manually clicking each and every download.

There's gotta be a better way.

Their website says it was officially canned November 2021 which lines up with when I would have last used it (early 2021)

Guess I'll skip Vortex if I ever feel like replaying Stardew Valley

Yeah it was in some sort of maintenance mode from 2016 to 2021, though I see that the developer has continued working on it under the subtitle Community Edition to this day.

Neat

Hey OP, is this the solution to your problem?

No, doesn't handle new API.

MO2 already handles invidual downloads, and parallel downloads.

Damn :( sorry I'm no help lol

Yeah, just gotta RE vortex. It's open-source but written like a piece of shit, so it's ass to read.
