Steps for Installing Mods in Hogwarts Legacy
When it comes to installing mods in Hogwarts Legacy, there are two ways to go about it:
Installing mods manually. Installing mods via a Mod Manager.
To install mods, you will need to find them on Nexus Mods. Nexus Mods is home to a ton of mods for Hogwarts Legacy, so there is sure to be something that will catch your interest. However, before you can start downloading mods, you will need to create an account with Nexus Mods. The good news is that creating an account only takes a few minutes, and it will not cost you a dime in the process.
Once your Nexus Mods account is up and running, here is how you can install mods manually or via a Mod Manager:
Installing mods manually
If you do not want to install a third-party app to install mods, then here is what you need to do:
Download the mod of your choice from Nexus Mods. Unzip the file. Make sure to check the mod's page for instructions. Move the files to the game's directory in the Phoenix folder. Overwrite any files when asked to do so. Once the files have been moved, run Hogwarts Legacy.
If you want to delete a mod, head over to the Phoenix folder in the game's directory and manually delete the mod.
Installing mods via a Mod Manager
To install mods in Hogwarts Legacy via a Mod Manager without any hassle, here is what you need to do:
Download Vortex on your PC. Install Vortex and follow the onscreen instructions. Open Vortex. Locate Hogwarts Legacy under the Unmanaged tab. Click Manage and download the required extension. Log into your Nexus Mods account and authorize the site. Vortex will locate Hogwarts Legacy, but if it doesn't, add the game to the directory manually. Hogwarts Legacy will not pop up under the Managed tab. Locate and install a mod via the Mod Manager Download button next to the Vortex icon. If such a button is not available, it means the mod cannot be installed manually. A file will be downloaded, after which you will have to open an NXM link. Vortex will install the mod, after which you can run Hogwarts Legacy.
To delete a mod via Vortex, click on the mods button and select Remove next to the mod of your choice.
