In response to post #43608505. #43608720 is also a reply to the same post. They're two different styles of mod videos. MxR basically says "I found some tending/interesting mods, here's me using them, give them a look if you're interested". The goal is bringing attention to mods while letting the viewer come to their own conclusions about it. It sounds like Brodual's style is ideal if you want a specific, vetted mod list, while MxR's is ideal if you want to be aware of the plethora of mods out there and try them out yourself.

I can see how Bethesda could easily come back and try to monetize modding again. Hell, I honestly expect them to try again at some point. The key factors for an imminent change are: 1. Absorb or otherwise shut down 3rd party modding sites like Nexus Mods, LL, etc. I won't claim to know how exactly they'd go about accomplishing this, but it's certainly the most important step. 2. Move all modding of Bethesda games to their own Bethesda.net site, where they have complete control over what mod content gets created. They're already doing this with console mods. (not allowed to use anything but in-game assets, for example) In order to continue drawing advertising revenue, they will likely ban mod content of an explicit nature, as sites like Google don't like their ads showing up alongside naked ladies. (I recall a fanfiction site that faced this problem a few years back, they had to force the removal of all explicit images from the stories, user avatars, forums, etc. in order to keep the advertising) 3. Lock mod content behind paywalls. Of course, the last attempt showed that they had no clue about how the modding community works, so doing this will once again split the community among those who give in to the money and those who refuse. However, since we've seen this before, I think the divide would be even more in favor of resisting Bethesda's takeover. As a final result, Bethesda destroys the existing modding community and alienates a significant part of its consumer base (even many of those who would otherwise be apologists) because they couldn't resist the chance to squeeze extra money out of folks with no labor on their part.

I've recently encountered a bug of some sort when it comes to sneaking. Basically, every time I enter sneaking mode, everything that I am within the detection radius of instantly detects me. That skeleton two floors and 100 feet away? Instantly aware of exactly where I am, and instantly hostile. The only time I am "hidden" is when I am outside the detection radius of every creature. Otherwise, I'm instantly spotted and cannot sneak, no carry out sneak attacks, regardless of sneak skill level or equipment loadout. I can't figure out what the issue is. The only mod I have that I believe would affect stealth would be Ordinator, since it changes the perks, but I've had no issues with it for a year. This is a very recent development. I'll try deactivating recently-installed mods to see if one of them is the culprit. Has anyone else encountered this sort of issue before, or know of a solution?

Texture replacers are gonna be needed for certain, the base textures are a mix of decent and bad. Some things almost looked worse than Fallout 3. (completely flat debris "piles" with x512 texture)

FNIS couldn't find the skeleton files, even though they were still in existence (just in a different location, searching the computer found them).

In response to post #28797534. #28797764, #28799519 are all replies on the same post. When you first install the new build, it asks where it should install the mod archives and whatnot. IIRC, it's on that page.

In response to post #28798264. Thing is, if you receive a death threat, talking about it is one of the biggest things you SHOULDN'T do. If you think that the threat is legitimate, you take it to law enforcement and keep quiet about it. DOn't give the person sending threats attention. Even if you think it's not serious, going public about it and complaining only serves the goal of the person sending the threats, which is to intimidate and bother the recipient. Also, I tend to take a dim view of people who go public with receiving death threats online, since its not something you should be doing, as I said above, and it's also an effective way to garner sympathy and suppress dissent. Countless times I've seen someone do something stupid and get called out on it, only for them to say "I got death threats" and a bunch of people leap to their defense to say "so what if they screwed up, that's no excuse for death threats!". Basically, using the threats as a distraction and to discredit critics. In no way am I saying that this was the goal of the Nexus in publicizing the threats, but they are following a pattern of behavior that could very easily lead to that sort of thing. Already seeing some of the "defenders" showing up.

In response to post #28797624. I think it was mainly a surprise, because there hadn't been a lot of clarity when getting the update notification on what exactly would be happening. I imagine most people figured it'd be just another update. When it said "all mods will be uninstalled and reinstalled" it failed to state that the mods would be put in a new location (the "Virtual" file) and FOMOD menus would not pop up. And yea, the immaturity of some people is ridiculous, and some of the Nexus staff are guilty of poor behavior as well. I can think of a moderator or two who went around accusing everyone of screwing up themselves and being useless.

In response to post #28797534. I think this new version is installing files in a different location by default, I had to manually set it to install them in the "Data" folder. I also had to delete every mod and reinstall them from the archives because of that new file location, I was getting the same sorts of errors as you got.

Thanks for the update, and thanks for the disclosure on Krystal.co.uk.
