~ PAK Mods
Mods that contain a modified PAK and/or other standalone files do not require any particular structure for Vortex to install them correctly, although the relevant files cannot be in any undesired sub-folders when zipped.

These are very easy to install and don't require any set-up on the player's end, but are completely incompatible with other mods.

~ "Raw Files" Mods
"Raw files" mods require the game's main.pak to be extracted into the game's root folder. The main.pak itself must then also be removed from the root folder (this can be done by moving its location or renaming the file to something like Xmain.pak).

An example of folder set-up (image)

If you do not have a tool to extract the PAK yourself, you can install the necessary files here. It also goes more in-depth on why you should use this method.

Once the player has set this up, it will be very easy to install mods from then on, and will allow for much greater compatibility with other mods than simply installing PAK mods.

Mods that do not follow the correct structure will still be installed, but won't work. Mods that have additional root folders will be fine, as the correct folders will be extracted.
