So I was playing and came across an npc that has quite the interesting head...i was wondering if it was possible to give it to the player?
-
As the title says, I feel like the Voodoo Boys Anti-Interference Netrunner Jacket ( Jacket_17_basic_03) could use some alternatives ,specially since its the only piece of clothing that bears the name of that gang. Black camo with silver circuitry and red screens on the collar would be my go-to honestly (I'm into the neomilitarism style)
-
Its a common issue for mask and helmets in vanilla skyrim, which cause the muzzles and heads of khajit and argonians to be squashed down to a human size. The mod Improved closefaced helmets fixes plenty of these issues, but the modder(s) overlooked the Cultist Mask and the Masque of Clavicus Vile. Thankfully Masque of Argonian Vile and the Khajit equivalent fix this for the Masque, but the cultist helmet/mask remains the sole headpiece that reduces my argonian to a human head. Would any kind modder be willing to create a mesh for beastraces, so they can use these headpieces without having their heads converted to human standards?

After looking at some of the works by Yamato Nakajima, I have to say, he has plenty of things that would fit the Fallout theme, specially Nuka-world related. Just hope someone takes the time to look through his creations and gets inspired.

And aparently not so fixed anymore...each time I load a save or start the game the bug reapears. Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?
-
Temporarilly fixed with player.resurrect, but each time I load a save the bug reapears.

After my most recent round of updating mods, I enter the game to find all my armor ha dits armour value reduced to zero. They are still classified as clothing, light armour and heavy, but none have an armour value, at all. I have tried disabling and reenabling, uninstalling and reinstalling everything in order, but nothing. So I'm left to guess its a load order issue. I use LOOT, but it didn't solve much this time. As such I'm hoping your wonderful folk will help me out here.

Soo, SE is missing in the skeleton department. In fact its missing severely in the general playable race department in terms of actually letting you equip stuff. Would anyone be so kind as to port any of the mods into SE?

Its a common issue for maks and helmets in vanilla skyrim, which cause the muzzles and heads of khajit and argonians to be squashed down to a human size. The mod Improved closefaced helmets fix plenty of these issues, but the modder(s) overlooked the Cultist Mask and the Masque of Clavicus Vile. Would any kind modder be willing to create a mesh for beastraces, so they can use these headpieces without having their heads converted to human standards?
Edit: A port of Masque of Argonian Vile would work for the Clavicus Vile Maque, but it seems not even Oldrimhas anything eprtainign to Culist Mask having a beastrace-friendly version -
So, its widely known beast races get little love, Argonians even less, and male argonians the least of all. What i want to know is what mods do there exist for argonians? Specially looking for ones that allow brighter colours to be used for scales and other cosmetic changes (until racemenu gets ported that is) But honestly anything that gives the scaley bastards some love. I do have BATs, and Digitigrate Beast Races, and the Closefaced helms, and the chameleon retexture (for brighter scales, kinda)

So, there is this mod in good ol'Skyrim called Call of Madness . Needless to say it is amazing. And as such I would love to see it, or something similar, in Special Edition. I have already contacted the modder, but unfortunately he has yet to respond or even see the message, this after a year, so I'm guessing he is not into modding any more. As such, would anyone be willing to do something similar to this wonderful mod? Pretty please?

Your link no longer works, consider replacing it with this one. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/28394

In response to post #56112216.That's the way to do it. The Money, or Points are not to be the goal, never. Simply an incentive. A lil material way to show how much the user community appreciates its modders.Niborino9409 wrote:
I for one is going to try and not bother myself with accumulating points. Still gonna keep at it for fun. I don't get many downloads on my mods so when I get enough points(probably when I'm 70 or 80 :dance:) I can trade them in then.

Well, for a lot of small mods, the SSECK *IS* a magic button of kinds. I was referring to mods from modders who didn't have any restrictions on what was done with their mods. And with all due respect and certainly without any meaning of spreading *hate*, but whatever the time it takes to port a mod, it's still "just" a port and not original work. If the result of your port differs so much from the original then in my eyes it's no longer a port but a new mod that uses assets from what was the original.
If the amount of time spent on doing something should be taken into acount, well, then I want in on the action for spending hours to upload a few screenshots because of going back and forth to get the links for the mods I use in my game that are representative for the way the screenie looks.
Again, my comment was absolutely not intended to look down on "porters" but to raise the issue that it could prove more complicated than first thought to sort who is due what and what for. I'm not the kind of guy who's first downloading ported mods like a madman to then form a committee against the people who do the porting. I love mods and appreciate the people putting in the effort, but when it comes to recompense this better be thought out to within the most minute details or we risk running out of modders and porters because they could say, "well, if it's like this then I won't bother anymore". It has always struck me as odd that, from the moment there's money involved, things tend to go pear-shaped because of folk feeling entitled and getting nought, people getting jealous because "they" get some and "we" get nought,etc...
The issue at hand is to set up a system that is fair towards everyone, not to start a smearing campaign. We're talking games here, not politics.
And as important (to me) is the question about a possible automated contribution from non-modders towards the main pool of septims that will go towards the modders, if/when non-modders will be allowed to contribute money at all.bchick3 wrote: Yeah I see your point and it’s not like I’m getting rich off donations I just dont want porters to get a raw deal here. It really does take some work to get mods ported. I f you don’t believe me give it a try. I’m not saying original authors should not get a percentage. Just that it should be a lower percentage. Otherwise it’s like you said, I will lose incentive to do ports at all. I do want to help people enjoy sse and that’s why I started porting some of the best mods. I have ported over 200 mods and I hate to think that would lose the ability for folks to show thier gratitude. Quite a lot of them were done by request. AnywY that’s my two centsJimmyRJump wrote: @bchick3
That's what I meant with "from the moment there's money involved things go pear-shaped" because you're already on that path with claiming that not getting anything will make you lose the incentive to continue porting. Well, first off, money should NEVER be the incentive, even when you do this for a living, and second, which ties in with the first, until now you did it because you wanted to do it, for free and at no cost, so, why all of a sudden stop when there's no money in it for you?
Mind you, when it depended on me, everybody would profit. I was and am speaking from within the proposed system here. I'm not at all proposing that only original modders or porters that make a mod their own by drastic changes should get a share of whatever pecunary amount is available.
Also keep in mind that this is not a done deal yet as is. Tinkering will need to and shall be done. Compromises will possibly have to be made. And heads will have to be kept cool when a nice mod -new or ported- that has cost a lot of effort gets only a couple of dozen endorsements and still brings the author zero point whatever in cash...
Because it's not like this is gonna make some modders rich and steep others into poverty. In the end, if any kind of benevolent payment is implemented, the differences in bank account levels will be minimum and this whole discussion will probably be looked back upon with weary smiles a few weeks/months from now.bchick3 wrote: Yeah, I probably overreacted a bit. Just got a tiny bit upset that some would think it’s supereasy to port a mod and therefore aren’t entitled to some recompense if folks wanted to do it out of their hearts.

Don't apologise for making a point which is as valid as what I said (if my point is valid at all, that is).

Something is "easy" when compared to something harder. Modding is really easy if you compare it with sending a rocket into space. Making a mod is obviously harder than porting it, because otherwise porting would be pointless and people would just re-develop their mods for SSE. Just take, for example, the time you've put as an example of a very hard port, 3 days, that's not actually a lot of time when compared to the time it takes to make most mods.

I have no interest in trying to dictate the terms anyone else agrees to. If you're permitted to receive donations that's great. But it's at the discretion of everyone who's work you used, just like the rest of us. If they tip you for who you are and what you do, great. That's not what this thread is about.
In regards to your personal challenges, I would flip the same question onto you. How long would it take you to build one of those mods from nothing? If you asked the creators how long they worked on those mods, I guarantee they would give you a number much larger than three days. But that's really not the point, either.
I never said porting mods isn't a valuable skill. We all have our roles to play and they're all important. But using someone else's assets does not give one ownership of them or their copyright. Once money is involved, that becomes an important distinction.FrankFamily wrote: There's no harm at all as long as the maker of the mod that was ported is ok with it.
And yeah, not all porting is equal, porting my mods is trivial for example, other types are probably harder. It's not good to trivialize the difficulty of what someone does but lets not inflate it either. Porting any given mod is neccessarily easier than making it given similar skill-level and knowledge between the original modder and the one porting, that's what I'm saying. Sentences like "I’m not saying original authors should not get a percentage. Just that it should be a lower percentage." kind of sound like porting deserves more reward than whoever made it originally, one could guess because it supposedly takes more effort/skill? Which defeats logic.
In any case, whatever splitting of the points a port gets will be what was agreed between the porter and whoever made the original mod. Permissions are the key. I don't think the nexus should get into "this is a port, thefore it gets X% of the points" or stuff like that. That's up to the authors of both the mod and the port to make an agreement.
Another thought regarding "And if a porter wants to accept donations from people who appreciate the effort then what’s the harm?":
What are people truly appreciating? What are they donating to really?. The porting effort or the actual result which is the ported mod? And that's the thing, porting takes effort, certainly, but the downloads a mod gets don't depend on that effort, they depend on the mod itself which is the results of both the effort of the original modder and whoever ported it. And most certainly the latter is considerably smaller but unless an agreement is made between the authors, he gets all the reward. That's where the "problem" appears.bchick3 wrote: You make good point there frank. And you too levionte. Really doesn’t matter what I or you think anyway. It will be what it will be. It’s the nexus gods that will decide what is fair and equitable. Just wanted my hearing and I’ve had my say.Idiomic wrote: @bchick3
I agree with you, there's still plenty of Oldrim mods that are yet to be ported to SSE. A couple little QoL mods that I'm in love with for Oldrim, are doubled torch/magelight radius and no-motion-blur Night Vision. No problem with netting a little DP here and there for helping to bring SSE on-par with Oldrim.
One small problem that can arise though, is when multiple people try porting the same mod to SSE from Oldrim. Probably best resolved by "who uploaded it first."
Then again that point is relatively moot, since its not just speed and quantity, but popularity. In the end the better ones will get more unique downloads. -
In response to post #56117456.I second that. The community is flush with burned out or disheartened talented modders...hopefully this will bring them back, or at least create new ones.urielz wrote: What a great idea! I think (hope) this will bring new life into the community... much needed in these times of petty business practices by Bethesda.

In response to post #56111671. #56111901, #56112331 are all replies on the same post.I do believe the fear with this system is that it kinda promote quick mods, and punish long-term big projects, like Fallout4 New Vegas. Then again said big projects do tend to be popular due to the quality and ambition, so hopefully it balances out?Genamine wrote: The only issue I can see with this is that popularity and amount of work put into something are completely different metrics
Not to mention the fact that large projects often require continuous development, while not necessarily yielding any more unique downloads for the extra time spent on it
Whats to keep people from pumping out easy to make but popular mods (like clothing and cosmetic mods) at an industrial rate?
If based on unique downloads on a per-page basis, that would strongly discourage authors to continue work on existing mods, which will yield only recurring downloads from the same set of users
You would be far better off farming as many unique downloads from as many separate mod pages as possibleDark0ne wrote: This presupposes a couple of things.
First, that all mod authors only mod for money/financial gain. We currently have over 240,000 mods on Nexus Mods that were all uploaded on the complete understanding that there would be practically zero financial gain from doing so, thus, I think it's silly to assume all mod authors are instantly going to only give a damn about the Donation Points they receive, which in the grand scheme of things won't be much, instead of focusing on what they always focused on, which is making mods they enjoy making and sharing with others.
Second, that some mod authors "pumping out easy to make but popular mods" is a particularly bad thing. If the quality is good and its stuff people want (and typically popular mods tend to be of a certain quality anyway), more mods is not a bad thing, it's a good thing.Genamine wrote: No, you are correct, Im not under the assumption any current mod authors are in any way in it for the money
On the contrary in fact, theyve proven that much
What I moreso had in mind was if it might bring in new authors that do create content for money if given the opportunity
Monetary gain certainly does promote quality, but isnt that not more of a good thing for users and a bad thing for small authors?
Not because it makes their work less good than it currently is, but because it might discourage them from uploading their work
Either way, Im interested to see what this will bring for the community
Maybe Im completely wrong and itll bring a healthy boost in morale for popular authors, with all thats been going on with mod theft and such -
Basically they expanded upon the Donation mechanic, using their own money as a base, so that every modder gets a lil bit of something. Mods will still be very much free on our end, but as always you can donate to the modder directly, or if you simply want to incentivize modding in general, you can donate to the Money Pool. But mods are, and always be, free on Nexus.

I know my opinion doesn't count much, since I'm a user and not a modder, but I find the fact that the Nexus team is willing to pony up cash themselves for this is a great gesture. As for the comments about popularity and the like, well, modding popularity IS earned through quality, so there's that. As for the hostile modders and users, simply ignore them?

But I have to agree with zlycher and take a glass half full approach. That things needed to change in nexus was a fact, since the alterations made by the corporations (AKA CreationClub and the like) Are...less than perfect. Compared to that, this move by the nexus team is at the very least a step in a good direction. And hey, they shared the idea ahead of time and are willing to hear us rant on and on, taking ideas where they can. -
Sooo....After revisiting two certain videos 1 2 it occurred to me, why not ask the talented community to try and create it? I mean i can't be the only one interested in a giant ass flaming sword, right? RIGHT?! Bonus points if its added to the levelled lists for at least the Supermutants...and maybe Legendary Raiders/Scavvers?

So, we have some really nice revolver mods around, even a bitching great revolver rifle....so I though, revolver shotguns are a thing, how about a mod for one? I personally recommend something akin to the MTs255, at least visually.

Lovely idea, although I recommend you get in contact with the team in charge of Raider Overhaul, they seem to be planning to do something similar in later updates, and I'm sure they would appreciate your enthusiasm and initiative.
