In response to post #19863889. #19937979, #20038749 are all replies on the same post. Aha, but there lies the issue. I asked something there, and I don't think I ever received a response. The creator, back when I looked, didn't seem very active and I don't want to throw in with the umpth mod manager if I cant be sure that there will be help if an issue arises. I'd much rather have a stable setup with NMM than having to risk running with a rickety setup with little to no guarantees. Also, I've heard issues about mods not being able to "see" eachother at times, especially in complicated setups. That is not acceptable.

While my speeds are fine, I do wonder why it's taken two months to update us on anything... I myself have been impatiently waiting for the Mod Profiling feature of NMM. How is that faring? It's becoming quite important to me, because I'm starting to stream on the regular, and I need to reinstall some body mods in favor of their underwear counterparts just to comply to Twitch's demand for no nudity. As well as the fact that I want to show more than one overhaul in the span of one stream without having to wait 10 minutes for the entire installing procedure to complete, in the case if two overhauls are not compatible with each other.

I couldn't be mad at you, Ben. It's water under the bridge. But yeah, even the small chance that a tl;dr causes some lazier people (I am using that word for lack of a better one in my mind, by the way) to still get the important point of a message is well worth the (what I presume is small) effort. We can't have a stance of "If people can't care to read these, they deserve to get infected by a Virus" because in the long turn of events that might harm us as well.

Okay, I guess I don't need to be told in any way that it's been moved. No less to a different section than I had in mind. Thought someone had deleted it. Peachy.

So, I'm glad that over time we are still being kept so consistently updated about the recent on-goings of the Nexus. In exception with the two month pause in that. Which, in fact, made me start to miss it. But that's also because I like to read stuff from time to time. Which brings the worry on the message of those posts being lost to those without the patience to fully read it. And in the latest one, the one about overall security (our own, site, etc...) I do think it's important that as many people get informed about the basic safety practises suggested. So for the people without the patience to read the lengthy (but well-written) posts, I would propose that on top of it (or wherever suitable) a "tl;dr" is placed that captures the points you want every reader or passer-by to at least grasp. For example, the security post update could have had a tl;dr of Nexus never sends bulk email to update NMM, or at all even NMM install .exe is always signed with Black Tree Gaming Ltd. as the publisher Only download NMM from it's own download pageAnd so on and so forth. You get the idea. EDIT: Hunh, I completely forgot the idea that this could have gone in the "Nexus feedback and talk" section... Should I remake the topic there or can someone from Staff move it there if it belongs there? I know that this sounds like were pampering to the lazy people. But quite frankly, when it comes to site and personal security, I would deem it justified to just go that little extra mile just so even those are caught in a potential safety net. That said, it would be silly to do this for every post in the future. I personally only suggest this be done on topics that are extremely important and must be heard. Your thoughts, gentlemen and gentle...ladies? I always botch that up. EDIT: Hunh, I just noticed that this would have better gone in the "Nexus Feedback and Talk" section... Should I remake the topic there or can someone from Staff move it if it belongs there?

Hey Dark0ne, is there a way to double Kudos you? Like, a Kudos with golden trimming? These are EXACTLY the two games I wanted NMM support for so badly, you have no idea at all. It's pretty insane. I'm pretty stoked right now. My thanks to everyone responsible for this.

Oh wow, if you could integrate Starbound support in NMM, you'd basically force me to give you all the heterosexual love I can give you. No, really, Starbound support would make me smile for a week straight. Assuming in direct consequence there'd be a thriving Starbound modding community... Okay, let's just keep it on the fact that I really, really, REALLY would love Starbound to be modded to all hell. Possibly surpassing Skyrim. And I love Skyrim to death. So that's saying something.

I sort of feel this does deserve a bump of sorts. But I do figure this does require a minor elaborate explanation. (so it's not just a blatant 'bump') The CK is, obviously, long out now. While I see this idea might have been forgotten by everyone else, I still have fond memories of my times with this mod back in Oblivion. Being able to relive that experience in Skyrim would be grand. But going back to Oblivion would basically equal to giving up an almost perfect mod setup in Skyrim in favor of an older game with dated graphics, just for one mod. (said with the utmost respect, of course) Now, you could argue using the currently available Flying mods... but I've looked through them. The best available is a mod that replaces attacks with laser beams. While a fair and respectable attempt, it's still not exactly what I had in mind. So I ask of you, dear fellow Nexusians...Nexusclan...Nexusfolk?... if there is even a single practical reason why this could not be possible? I am no scripter by any stretch of the imagination. I cannot imagine if Papyrus, or whatever Skyrim functions through, has any gripes with this. The only non-practical reason would be that VipCxjs simply would disallow a straight convert. But that is their prerogative. That, and there being absolutely nobody willing to do this. Or VipCxjs not being available to permit it. Also, Google landed me here, in case you were wondering how I found this tiny topic.

In response to post #10411265. I've checked the page again after a few hours. Issue resolved. Consider this fixed on my end.

Here's a new one (unless my skimming of the comments here made me miss someone else reporting it): On the page of Obscurum in F3 Nexus ( www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/17937 ), which I govern, all Apostrophes (a link just in case it's happening here too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostrophe ) are replaced with 39; (without the space in the middle) yet it remains unchanged in editing mode. Some center tags also seem to either not be recognized or do not hide from sight, yet do seem to function. This is pretty much ruining my neatly written texts and I'm sure it's also a symptom of an even larger problem. Soooo.... yeah. Halp? EDIT: Wow, that's rich. The comments actually get auto-correct for it, yet the mod page remains unchanged. My confusion is peaking to a new height.

Success! SoundStrategyCollection_SF.upk unpacks a few folders, but the one I'm after is in SoundStrategyUI and the alarm in question is AbductionMissionAlert.SoundNodeWave which, when converted to .ogg (KMPlayer can perfectly play it so it was easy for me to check) was indeed the alarm. High five to you all!

I haven't tried it yet (work in the world we call real life has forced it to elude me for now!) but such thorough and confident instructions deserve a kudos. As well as me being excited beyond anything as I had actually deemed this topic dead. Glad to be mistaken! Now I'm going to fret for three hours until I'm finally home again to try this out. Gnnnnrrr.

In response to post #8018153. #8019625, #8020950 are all replies on the same post. I even did the math. Lifetime costs an equivalent for two years, but ends up being 3 years with taxes. At least in my case. Now if Dark0ne manages to sway me to donate for something else I believe in, I'm sure I'll be nothing but good profit.

I guess it may be somewhat Geek-ish to ask this, but I've just heard the X-com alarm used in a few Doctor Who episodes, which made me realize that it would be pretty darn awesome if I could get that alarm sound (and/or anything else X-com related) on my Smartphone to act as a ringtone. Because, you know, I don't have a lot of Geek-ish escapades, but this is one of them. I've searched Google, Youtube, etc etc and it all came up short, much to my sadness. So I turn to you fine folk: Anyone got any idea where I can find some X-com sounbites? Or know anyone that does?

Am I winning? Is there a prize? Is it something I want? Is it squirrels? I HATE SQUIRRELS! Or, in the words of Charlie Sheen (as someone probably did earlier) Tiger Blood! I mean Winning!

Additionally, Dark0ne, I would endorse a LOT more if there wasn't a timer on endorsing, or at least a smaller one. I know why the feature exists, to stop people from exploiting the system. But come on. I've been a user for 4 years, and am currently a Premium user. If that doesn't give me some credit to allow me to endorse mods quicker, I feel cheaped out by these bribing attempts to non premiums. I mean, hell, the moment I tend to endorse mods is when I go update them. I click the version number in NMM, download the update, only to find out that the timer has been reset. Yes, in a way it's my fault for not figuring out to endorse first. But can't your system remember that I downloaded it once before so I don't get the timer again?

Here is my real gripe about ads: They are annoying in a method beyond their content. I can deal with ad bars that are conveniently placed in good parts. But I have seen sites that place ads in such horrible places, that their website layout sometimes even gets distorted! At this point, the ad hinders my experience, and I choose to absolutely not suffer it then. From bad to worse, disabling my ad blockers on some sites somehow enables them to put up native-screen-sized pop-ups again, despite Firefox having a pop-up blocking feature. And 7 times out of 10, the content of the ad was...really not something that interested me and actually annoyed me quite a bit. You'd think that Greencard firms wouldn't advertise to countries not interested in such a thing. Some websites do have ads tailored to the region, which is nice...except for me. See, Belgium has three native languages, whereof Dutch and French being the two dominant ones. 75% of the time, if an ad is adapted to my country, it's in French. I don't speak French. I actually hate the whole language with a passion. The Google Malware incident is actually a prime example of how uncontrolled (and therefor, dangerous) the ad market is. Incidents like this SHOULD NOT EVEN HAPPEN. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not pointing my finger to anyone. But the sheer idea that Google has picked up on malware for an ad, despite it handling the incident like an idiot, means that Ads are just still a hostile wilderness. So while I understand the necessity of Ads, there needs to be a way to get things straight and get the above gripes in order. Ads are a "free" method to earn money from users and consumers. So in sight of that, Ads should be intelligent and non-intrusive, because you don't want to annoy your userbase. If Ads will stop being an annoyance, then I will start to trust websites again for their proper ad placement. Also, make sure your adblocker-finding script doesn't hinder Premium users.

Thanks. I wouldn't say I gived up on love. I'm just on a indefinite break from trying until either age or my subconscious give me a wake-up call. Oh god that made for one of the loudest chuckles known to me.

I'm 23 (about to hit 24 in a month or so) now and I'll tell you one of MY experiences at the age of 15-16 that, without any sarcasm or such, I believe to be my fault. Was my first girlfriend, actually. And you know the memories of your first will NEVER go away. Actually, most bad memories that stuck longer than a day at the time will stick with you in the same amount of decades, if not more. When you're in Highschool (at least, in Belgium), and you have access to a computer and internet, games will always creep themselves up to you. That's how they get you. First you play flash games, and a decade later you're busy modding your favorite game to hell, giving different colors to dragons and making your sword vomit rainbows. At the time, I was playing SilkRoad Online. Back then, proper MMORPG's that were free were rare. Runescape or WoW were the games to play if you had money. And we all know teenagers never have money. Let alone, have means to get that money online. SilkRoad Online was...well, an addicting experience. Maybe in the face of competitors that would've been different, but it wasn't... However, not being the tech savvy I am now, I wasn't aware the game had a windowed option. The idea seemed a luxury back then. The main problem with the game was, and still is, the ungodly long waiting lines. Which only got worse with the years. I once turned on my computer at night, put myself in the queue and only got in around when I woke up. Madness, but back in the day, totally worth it. Through a 'new' friend, I met this girl. I'll save you the details how it went, just know that she made the first move through msn (where are the days of msn...ahhh *nostalgic sigh*). Back then I was a timid person, so...yeah. Teenager + timid does not equal a womanizer. So seeing a girl make the first move was just the thing a low-confident moron like me needed. After we 'agreed' to hook up (thats how things went back then...don't ask. Youth will always remain a mystery to me), I fell ill for an entire week before we had a week off during Fall. (I don't know if other countries have a week off during Fall, but we do) So we met up in Bruges that Saturday after I got better. Ah, what a marvelous day that was. Even she said she saw a sparkle in my eyes. I wasn't much of a vocal talker back then (still aren't, but for different reasons) so apparently I had enough telltales to show how happy I was. Second date, again in Bruges, was amaaaaaazing. Kissing, First Base. (I hope I have the meaning of bases right...) At that age, that spells a pretty good day to me. We kept contact through Msn. Around that time I started playing SilkRoad Online again. Or it was introduced to me. I'm not so sure anymore. On my name I said for people to buzz me if they needed me while I was on SilkRoad Online. So. Turns out MSN puts you on Busy mode (which disables buzzing effects) when you're in a fullscreen game. My girlfriend came online, waited for me for hours... When I closed the game, I saw all that she said. A friend of hers said she got quite upset with waiting for me and went offline. I sent an e-mail to say I was sorry...dear God, I would've sent thousands if it wasn't for her first response saying it's alright. We later on agreed to meet up again. This time in Courtray (Kortrijk) to go out. That was a pretty bad omen. The city is really not as good to go out in. It was, in fact, pretty shitty. Sorry for the cuss. This one's necessary. The date was...cold, to say the least. She refused to kiss, hold hands. We just went out, I guess, walking. I had a hunch things were bad but...what can you do? You're a teenager and this was your first girlfriend. Living in the shadows of your friends will make such so. The date was over, and later that evening I would get an e-mail from her, saying it's over. She explained her part and said an equivalent of "Maybe we can be friends and try again later"... :facepalm: Ah, how foolishly I reacted. First I said I'd hurt myself (don't even bother saying how pathetic the idea is, even I should've known at that point that that NEVER works!), then I simply begged. To no avail, of course. Since, for some reason, I have a mental blockage to really kill or seriously harm myself, I ended up heating up a pocket knife with a lighter and burning myself with it... Yeah, you may wonder why and you'll know just as much as I do. I've never harmed myself ever since...Well, not on purpose at least. :whistling: I became resentful. I've never been one to directly say threats, so I simply put in a biblic manner on my Msn title that "I will banish the demon" or some sort of that...weird stuff. I don't know if that's still excusable by the "I was just a teenager" excuse, but oh well... not like I ever did physically hurt anyone. At all. I could've, I was in proper shape. I just...couldn't. Get it? Not like she'd take that chance. She was soon enough already dating someone else. And he had lots of friends... Metalheads. Back then I listened to Rap...or rather, old Rap. The Rap that...no, I'm not going to start -that- discussion. Not in this topic. You know what kind of Rap I'm talking about. And one time, as I took the bus to get to the trainstation to get home... I was confronted with her, her boyfriend, and his mob of 20 Metalheads. Am I glad her boyfriend wasn't impulsive. She looked like she could tear a hole out of me, he was actually holding HER back, AND his friends. He explained she felt threatened, I gave my weak excuse of "my msn title doesn't apply to anyone", he said he thought that was BS and told me to change it. Then he took (now) his girl and his mob of friends and left. They broke up a few weeks later, though. How that, years later, affected my becoming a Metalhead will be a discussion for another time. It's irrelevant at this time. So, to anyone who is still in a position or age to be able to take a lesson from it, take heed in this: Don't give up gaming for a girl unless you can't bring up the skill/be bothered to find a way to combine it successfully. Don't be resentful. And never, ever, hurt yourself. Any chaotic emotions you have going can and most certainly will find a destructive purpose. And the consequences will bite you in the ass. HARD. Life seems to be different now. Gaming is now for all genders and generations, so who knows how much of all this still applies. God I wish Steam Overlay existed back then...maybe it did, and I just didn't know about it. If you would ask me how this has affected my love life...I would first ask you to ask me again in a decade. I'm still figuring myself out. For now, I've largely found solace in gaming. Yes, the culprit that cost me a great relationship has become my only source of grief counseling. Sure, I had highschool-friends. But I still don't know whether it was because they were insensitive bastards, or I was too much of a closed book to show my grief. But either way, they were little help in it all. The 'friend' just said he never talks to her again, because that's what friends do. I guess that's as much loyalty as a teenager could expect back then. In a way, it also shows that gaming itself is not an addiction. It simply is a tool for us to deal, in one way or another, with a problem we are facing. When someone says another is addicted to gaming, they should rather look into why said person is escaping in their own world of games. And not just take the easy road and blame games. Regardless, with almost a decade of additional life experience, I've learned quite a few things. I've learned also about women. I've learned that the grass is always greener on the other side. And whatever hate-able quirks that shape us men, is met with women who have just as much hate-able quirks. And as each of our quirks make us unique, so does it make them unique. Generalizing will never work, just as generalizing men has never really worked for them. That is why I always keep a close eye on any actions under the banner of feminism. Feminism, if I am not mistaken, aims for equality. Which I will always support. But to reverse the balance is equally bad. The current world still favors men a little bit too much, but a world that favors only women will not fix things. It's not like us men have Menimism, right? (A gentlemen's club doesn't count. We all know men go to those to read nudie-books and tell cock jokes. We keep the fart jokes to ward off nosy women... Heh, I didn't see that joke coming. My unconcious is a genius.) The secret, I believe, is to find someone who is as compatible with your quirks as you are with hers. A balance that evens out all the bad with the good from the other side. Or the bad with the bad, whatever way you'd like to look at it. At this day I'm still single, but I'm content with myself. Dare I say, happy? There are days I am lonely, but there are days I enjoy the freedom I still have. I am confident I'll find someone, some day. I've learned now that my hate-able quirks, of which I am for the largest part well-aware, make me unique and I will eventually find someone compatible to me. Until then, I have my dreams and aspirations. And I continue to do what I love, whatever it may be. Right now it's gaming, supporting Obscurum and dreaming about becoming an Internet celebrity thanks to my funny quirks (which, for your information, still hasn't happened yet so don't bother Googling me, you'll just find an old IMVU account *shudders*) On an ending note, I'd like to show a comic from Cyanide and Happiness, just ignore the punchline on the end that turns it into a bad joke. http://www.explosm.net/db/files/Comics/Rob/toansweryourquestion.png http://www.explosm.net/comics/2823/ So remember. If you think your life sucks, just think that there's always someone who has it a little bit worse. And Wizards are real. Keep believing! God, I hope I didn't derail the topic too much. This was a bugger to type out.

Well, Dark0ne couldn't have put it any more clearer, I guess. Seeing a case like that pass by and get hit hard by the banhammer urges a kind of...lack of words. Knowing me, that's quite the achievement.

Alternatively, select him in console and type showinventory That should list whatever is on his person, use Page Up/Page Down to scroll the information. If however you can't figure out the name of the armor though that, making him unessential will work too. You'll just have to load a savegame then if you don't want that change to be permanent.

My planes of interest intertwine. Criken goes toe to toe in the Battle Royale with TB, and TB gets mentioned on the Nexus. Is this the beginning of the internet joining forces that's not under the flag of Anonymous? (But in the context of gaming in this case) Somebody should make TB aware of the Nexus' existance. I've been following him for some time now, and for some reason he either fails to notice or seems hesitant to ever mentioning the Nexus sites, slightly avoiding the subject of modding whenever it would rub elbows with the topic of "the Nexus". For example, I don't think I ever heard him praising the strength of the Skyrim modding community , something he normally would point out with any other game at a certain point. (opting instead to simply faulting the game for its vanilla errors and bugs, some of which long circumvented or fixed by 'us') Or the fact that both Fallout games (whereof there is a Nexus site) are seeing active modding development, still to this day? On first thought, his audible support for the Nexus would mean a popularity boost for the sites, but could there be other repercussions to it then? For him or the Nexus? I don't know, just putting that out there. I think too much.

Dark0ne, Steam has now added Planetside 2 to the Free To Play section. Steam overlay already worked fine with it before when added as a non-steam game, but now it works even swifter. It pretty much happened the moment it came out of Beta and went public.
