Those are still technically Apollodown's assets, so you would just have to get permission to upload them and/or take over the mod. It does happen on occasion, and there is a system in place for curating mods no longer wanted by the authors, but as always, those authors have to give permission. Why not just port them over yourself? All that mod is is a bunch of textures and meshes and an esp file. You can find a good description of how to do this by Sharlikran here. :)

If you're talking about the color-scheme, just be patient. Wait until after Vortex is released, and we should see more changes, and those changes coming at a faster pace.

What did YOU mod lately ? Here says 0. So? What is your point? That because I haven't made any mods, I must therefore have no idea what I'm talking about? I happen to know Ewi65 rather well and what I said there is nothing I haven't told him to his face, and we both had a laugh about it. My point still stands. The amount of effort isn't worth the reward just to game the system, and Dark0ne has said as much, too.

Ewi65 isn't a member of Nexusmods anymore. So no more, HD Eggs, HD Nails, HD Moss, HD Cheese Mold, HD Yarn, and HD Dust. Seriously, I don't see mod authors wanting to waste time releasing a bunch of crappy one-off mods to game the system--it would take a lot of such mods, and the reward isn't worth it. What, $25 or $50 in the Nexus Store? My only suggestion, Dark0ne, would be to take on Etsy and create your own back-pages here on the Nexus that are run like classifieds. That way, the Nexus isn't directly profiting from Skyrim, per se, thus avoiding legal trouble, and you just sit back and collect 10% of all transactions. Why? Because all those fans on Etsy will start selling their Skyrim swag on the Nexus, instead, and the Nexus makes the money, not Etsy. There is literally so much swag on Etsy that I'm amazed they haven't been sued by Bethesda--you can find everything from shirts to wall art to professionally-made props and replicas. There has to be a reason why they aren't, and Nexus could just copy their methodology. Then the Nexus would truly be a nexus of gaming fans, for gaming fans. And Nexus would make a lot more money. Don't worry, I've already got the first t-shirts designed and ready to roll, just send me the word, Dark0ne. lol I'll gladly give you ten percent and finally be able to buy a full lifetime membership. :tongue:

Did you even bother reading the previous posts? Or the OP?

Nah, I never thought they found aliens. I think they recovered pieces of advanced aircraft from other nations and had to sweep it up quick. The existence of that office is just the tip of the iceberg. Aliens are the farthest thing from my mind when I think about the government's black projects--there's too much proof right in the open for those who have eyes in their head that most of the UFOs we've seen and documented over 70 years are man-made and of terrestrial origin, though not necessarily anything less than what they are: highly-advanced test craft utilizing field propulsion engines.

Uh, no, that was actually just repealed yesterday. Dreaming is now punishable by death, or five years and $10,000 fine. http://oi64.tinypic.com/2h73ofr.jpg And here's the soundtrack for the corporate take-over:

Not true. When the OP states, "Post specific issues you notice here so we can address them," and then crap-posters ignore this and continue with un-specific ranting and begging for a return that is never going to happen, how is that constructive? This is because they didn't have a web dev for the initial portion of setting up the new site, and Dark0ne admitted they made some mistakes, but the schedule was that Vortex was to be released in the beginning of 2018, and then the web dev, Kit, would turn her attention to the site and start addressing issues she found in these threads. Vortex hasn't even been released yet, so we still have a month or two before the site really starts getting overhauled. It's $2. Not $200. Not even $20. I can go dig through my couch cushions and find at least half of that $2. Probably take a bag of aluminum cans to recycling for the rest. And I use adblockers, too, but I'd still have given the $2 to Dark0ne if for no other reason than because I've definitely gotten my money's worth over the years. Membership doesn't hide all that many features. There's very little extra you get aside from faster downloads, which has been the main draw, but now that fascist Ajit Pai took over the FCC, and destroyed net neutrality, that will probably start changing as telecoms have just been given the green light to gouge customers as much as they can. Be patient. Changes are coming. Dark0ne has said that changes are coming after Vortex. So let's wait for Vortex and see what happens.

Nope, what we wanted was constructive feedback. We've had plenty and have already made a lot of changes based on the feedback in this thread and the news post. We'll continue to do this into the new year and beyond. So thanks to anyone who's provided suggestions and areas for improvement. Forgive me for finding that difficult to believe. The time I have spent thumbing through this thread has shown an almost universal distain for the new design, and those who defend the new design seem to be doing so in a very juvinile manner. And people saying they do not like it seem to be met with the wall of "it's here, deal with it." This is not how receiving constructive criticism works. Uh, yes it is, when those same people are being told over and over that the new site is here to stay and Nexus is not switching back to the old because Dark0ne said so. He was very clear about it. Yes, you'll just have to accept that he said so. His name is on the site paperwork as OWNER. This isn't a democracy, you get absolutely no say in anything done in this website. If Dark0ne decides he wants to paint the entire site bloody pink, we have nothing to say about it. Nexusmods.com is private property. Not a publicly-issued stock subject to a board of regents or the whim of the voting public. This thread isn't for people to sit there and bash the devs, the admins, and anyone who agrees with the staff or wants to post a simple thank you or word of encouragement. The theme of the thread is right there in the title, in 72-flaming-point letters. This thread is for offering constructive feedback so that the dev, Kit, has all of it in one or two threads and she can just skim through and cherry-pick the feedback. Now, you've given several salient points in your posts, which will be helpful to Kit. You were very specific, which is what she wants/needs. This, however, does not give you the right to dictate whether or not Dark0ne decides to use the old site as the default, or the new. This doesn't give the mouth-breathers a right to post with idiocy like, "Uh, this site sux balls, go back to the old, I hate you, I hate my life, I hate everything, you're driving me away from the Nexus, hurr durr..." So why waste thread space asking for something that isn't going to happen? That leaves one of two answers: 1. "I was too lazy to read through ten pages or so, including the initial OP." or 2. "I'm a whiny, grotty little wanker who wants to crap-post about how I hate the site without adding anything to the convo." We don't have the right to demand Dark0ne go back to the previous site, and frankly, I wish he'd just pull the plug on the old site and be done with it so we wouldn't have to read any more whining about it and the damned search engine between the two would finally stabilize. It's the attempting to find a user profile on the search. It doesn't always work so hot and takes us to a blank white page with xxx/search= in the heading, so it's not...hooking? I dunno...It's like it's not getting to the search results page when the button is set to Author and you search a name on the new site. Furthermore, who cares about their universal disdain? Yeah, we may lose a few, but the vast silent majority of users on the Nexus keep on using it and just adapt. All they are doing is cluttering a thread with irrelevant posts under the misguided belief that they are entitled to anything at all--even a response from a dev or Dark0ne himself. Any response anyone gets here by the admins or Dark0ne is by grace alone as the site owner has the right to do as he wishes, and he clearly thinks there is a profit to be made on the new site that he has all but said he wants to invest right back into us as a community. The worst part is, by not reading the posts that came before (even 5-10 pages, seriously), most of these people are missing my and others' posts that lay out Dark0ne's words from other threads showing the timeline he is operating on. First, Vortex, then the site, then profit. You don't like his timeline? Click on his avatar right above your last post and then PM him.

The fact that you would be organizing it would be enough for them to use the PATRIOT Act to simply give you rendition and you vanish. Big Brother is here. If you think they're going to allow another would-be King, ha. I say, keep digging, Mueller, and spread your net out again and see what else turns up. Many in the FBI want to clear their names and the name of the bureau simply out of civic pride. And let's not forget that the Federal Reserve stole 2 trillion dollars from the American people.

It's not a conspiracy anymore, it's already over. https://www.wired.com/1993/01/inslaw/ PROMIS was stolen and cobbled together with an AI. This is why the SEC never finished investigating the insider trading done on 9-11. The proof is there. And I don't think that Federal Reserve officer in the video is a conspiracy--they're clearly covering up. The Fed is not our friend. We were warned about a central bank by Jefferson: http://www.lost-history.com/images/blog/Jefferson_on_Banks.jpg He and Hamilton got into it about the central banks. And now we see why. Net Neutrality was the last way to quickly be able to distribute this content to the masses, and you better believe you're going to see a slow but deliberate purge over the next decade or two of material the government deems harmful that isn't illegal.

Those four, I don't believe are impossible to achieve--there may yet be time if younger people wake up to what was stolen from them. And that's literally how it must be put across because that's what it was. A theft, called out by Senator Barry Goldwater. "Most Americans have no real understanding of the operation of the international money lenders. The accounts of the Federal Reserve System have never been audited. It operates outside the control of Congress and manipulates the credit of the United States." -- Sen. Barry Goldwater (Rep. AZ) Still true to this day, and it was almost audited a few years back because Ron Paul was pushing for it--what happened to that? Yeah. I remember that, and it was only 3 or 4 years ago. He retired out, and the bill petered out. https://www.ronpaul.com/audit-the-federal-reserve-hr-1207/ And every man, woman and child needs to see this video. Over and over and over. You wanted a trumpet? Here it is. And pay attention to this: https://youtu.be/sjonS9W41k8?t=304 --she just admitted it was a program. She keeps dancing around the topic that they are using a computer program to parse, even uses the word "program," and that program is PROMIS which was stolen from a civilian corporation and weaponized by the CIA to pull off the banking heist that occurred during 9-11. There is your proof. Smoking gun. Read that book, Crossing the Rubicon. The entire system is corrupt.

Four bits of law would eliminate 90% of the corruption: 1. All lobbyists are fired, and outlawed. Period. No more lobbyists for special interest groups (which puts lobbyists out of the reach for 99% of Americans), and influence-peddling is now considered treason and treated as such. 2. Goodbye, PATRIOT Act. The whole thing. All at once. Gone. Absolutely no need for it. 3. The 18th Amendment that never was: Any person who has received an emolument, title, honorific, or any form of recognition from a foreign power, i.e., "esquire," and other titles of nobility, shall be ineligible for holding any office in the United States Government. 4. All Federal Employees are capped at a salary based on the median middle class income of the average American citizen. You want more money in office? Make the average citizen more money. Being a congressman or President was never supposed to be a source of income, and Jefferson was very specific about this. On this one point, I will be fair and say that Trump has donated his paychecks, but that's a dog-and-pony show. Now, with these in place, no more cronyism. No more leeching off the State for 30 years and collecting a ridiculous pension. No more influence peddling, no more spying on American citizens.

The only way to really take back the government is start at the ground and work our way up. Start raising our children with the truth more and home schooling them because what is taught in school is not the history of the United States. And get them into office to go in and start kicking ass and taking names. DAs who aren't afraid to try to prosecute government agents, a la Ruby Ridge. Reporters who aren't afraid to question presidents about how they're connected to illegal narcotics trafficking. That's the only thing that will save us.

So what tools would YOU suggest since public apathy/complacency is at an all-time high...? Or are you going to try to tell us that sticking to methods that don't work when an organized crime syndicate is in power and fighting to disguise that fact while raping the county's wealth is the way to go? Wake up, man. The plutarchs have taken over. Dwight D. Eisenhower warned us about letting the military industrial complex take over, and guess what? We now have Kellogg, Brown and Root and Haliburton and the Clinton Foundation ruling the roost. That's the Bushes, the Cheneys, and the Clintons all running the show. Why do you think Chelsea wants in now? And I don't think Hillary wanted in because she was worried about her emails; that was secondary to cleaning up after her bungling husband's early career that left a lot of loose ends to tie up. They (the Clintons, the Bushes, Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice, John Kerry, and everyone else associated with the Iran-Contra affair) are all sweating bullets now that Mueller is on their trail because of Russia, and if he investigates Russia far back enough, he's going to dig up the connection to the Clintons, which is going to lead to the Iran-Contra affair again because Iran was one of the people funding terrorist attacks against Russia. Believe me, somewhere, there's a file marked TS-SCI (that's Top Secret-Sensitive Compartmentalized Information) that has all the real facts of what happened in the Iran-Contra Affair that will never see the light of day. Red, blue, republican, democrat--powerful corporate influences are once again at play and splitting the country apart. They're both on the same team and filthy as hell.

Thanks, guys! That does clear it up a lot for me. I remember reading that portion of the article, but it just didn't click, I guess. And whatever is left over each month I'm sure they'll just carry over to the next so the donation pool should grow exponentially, especially as people "buy" more DP by donating. I think that's what I was wondering about. :smile:

The problem with the Clintons is, they were in bed with the Bushes as far back as the 80s, so the same crime syndicate is still running the show. These are all the same people and they're all a part of what amounts to organized crime. Trump is just the latest, and I'm beginning to think he's a patsy. They needed a lightning rod for the Americans to fixate on as they tack on small, silent addendums to these bills like the one that repealed privacy on searches. The problem is Blackwater. The problem is KBR. The problem is Halliburton. How can the Clintons even live with themselves knowing that they were aiding and abetting the very people destroying our country from within? I'm beginning to think Barry Goldwater was right more and more. The enemies are already in the gates.

Yep, that and the dialogue option would simplify the scripting. Preston tells you, triggers the dialogue, you tell him to go grab some men and get to it. There it is.

Let's hope it's a temporary reversion. The optimist in me says that it's so they can undoubtedly fix a major bug or do a major overhaul of the UI/UX. Fingers crossed.

Opportunists is putting it lightly. Funny how the investigation paperwork for the SEC investigation into not only Halliburton, but Kellogg, Brown and Root (are you f*king kidding me?!), and some of the activities of the Clintons who were also under investigation at the time, were in the Twin Towers in the SEC office there, and there were reports of the workers in the financial offices there saying that moments before the plane hit, the computer screens went blank and switched to live trading where there were suddenly thousands put options (betting a stock would go down) on UAL and AA being rammed through. Reuters, December 17, 2001: Richard Wagner, a data retrieval expert hired to retrieve data from damaged computer systems left in the rubble of the World Trade Center, found that there was a deluge of electronic trading just minutes before the first plane struck, estimating that there was more than $100 million in illegal transactions being rushed through the WTC computers before and during the disaster. CBS News, September 26, 2001: A jump in UAL put options 90 times (not 90 percent) above normal between September 6th and September 10th, and 285 times higher than average on the Thursday before the attack. A jump in American Airlines put options 60 times (not 60 percent) above normal on the day before the attacks. No similar trading occurred on any other airline. Morgan Stanley saw between September 7 and September 10, an increase of 27 times (not 27 percent) in the purchase of put options on its shares. Merrill-Lynch saw a jump of more than 12 times the normal level of put options in the four trading days before the attacks. "This could very well be insider trading at the worst, most horrific, most evil use you've ever seen in your entire life...It's absolutely unprecedented to see cases of insider trading covering the entire world from Japan to the United States to North America to Europe." --Dylan Ratigan of Bloomberg News, ABC World News Tonight, September 20, 2001 Germany's Bundesbank Chief, Ernst Weltke: the transactions "could not have been planned and carried out without a certain knowledge," particularly citing heavy trading in gold and oil futures. --ABC News Consultant Jonathan Winer, World News Tonight, September 20, 2001 Even better, a single $2.5 million dollar put option trade on United Airlines went unclaimed after the attacks is appallingly clear evidence of criminal insider trading.

I highly recommend the book, Crossing the Rubicon: The Decline of the American Empire At the End of the Age of Oil by Michael C. Ruppert. Granted, it's a bit dated, but the information and bibliography alone makes the book a treasure house of interesting facts about things like this. For example, it talks about how the entire Clinton administration was involved in the Iran-Contra affair at varying levels, including Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice...It's like a who's-who. I may have been too young to know about it at the time, but I have since come to learn about ol' Ollie North and how he was being managed by the CIA. Or how Sarah McLendon questioned Bill Clinton about how the Iran-Contras were being allowed to bring dope into our country to sell to fund their weapons buying. If this video shouldn't angry every American citizen in existence regardless of party lines, then those persons (since they've ceased to be people anymore--see below)are traitors and should be turned into the Department of Homeland Security for investigation. They want to set up these huge bureaucracies under the premise of protecting us? Fine. Let's give them something to do. Because what Bill Clinton just did was commit TREASON. His wife, therefore, was INELLEGIBLE TO RUN FOR OFFICE--MORE TREASON. Now do you see why she wanted in so badly? It wasn't to cover up the servers and email bullcrap--that's small potatoes. It was to cover up ol' Bunglin' Slick Willie for the mess he left in office. To whit: "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States." (June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 807; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(2)(J), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2148.) Now, notice something about this. You shall face death, or five years. Wtf is that? Bit of odd disparity there, wouldn't you say? And look! Down below--the law changed in 1994. Under the reign of Slick Willie himself! What a coincidence! *Bill Clinton's voice* "Nobody will sentence a President to death, but hmm...I don't like that lifetime imprisonment--let's knock it down to five years!" We need more journalists like Sarah McLendon. Desperately. We need to see justice done--If Trump is so high on investigating the Clintons, why doesn't he start there? Then, maybe he'd be useful for something. Because if Hillary goes down, you'd better believe she's taking everyone with her, and that's why she had the pale, sickly face at Trump's inauguration. She was praying he doesn't go back that far. Now, I bet she's praying he stays mired in the Russia bulls*** so he doesn't sick Mueller on her once he's vindicated, if he's vindicated--if he's guilty, I say string him up from a tree on Pennsylvania Ave. after he is given due process and properly indicted, tried before a jury of his peers, and sentenced. If he's not, then keep unraveling, please. Because Russia's collusion goes back a very long time with the Clintons and many members of the Senate and House, like John Kerry. That is why they are fighting so hard right now--the people who have been there 20 or 30 years need a smoke screen so they play at passing or blocking laws to create a smoke screen as they pray Mueller stops before much longer--Mueller is on it, though. If he really starts digging more, he's going to unearth the whole thing, and then...then you will see the US Government implode. Also, for those traitors who aren't pissed off by that video: Person. n. a corporation treated as having the rights and obligations of a person. Counties and cities can be treated as a person in the same manner as a corporation. However, corporations, counties and cities cannot have the emotions of humans such as malice, and therefore are not liable for punitive damages unless there is a statute authorizing the award of punitive damages. If your name is spelled on your birth cert as THIS, and you don't know why, guess what? YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM. "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." --Samuel Adams "Those who would trade freedom for security deserve neither." --Benjamin Franklin

Regardless of their morality (or immorality), all human beings are still driven by the same basic needs: Shelter, protection, community, food, and identity. The entire reason we're even having to deal with NK right now is because there were too many armchair strategists who'd read books and thought they therefore knew something running the show in D.C. instead of letting the military do what it does and end the war quickly and decisively. "Oh, we can't violate their human rights!" IN times of war, the only rights you have are what you are willing to fight for. The Geneva Convention can take a flying leap--if nuking Little Rocket Man with a precision nuclear strike (preferably with a neutron bomb to minimize damage) will prevent another 500,000 from dying within ten years due to starvation and disease that is running rampant through NK right now, then I have one thing to say. The launch button is the red flashing one. Not only that, to understand why the Korean Peninsula is the way it is, you must look at the history of warfare conducted there, not by Koreans, but by the Chinese and Japanese. Every time that Japan would go to war with China, they'd run right up the middle of the Korean peninsula, straight into China, and then carve their way back out and head back to Japan. During this, the Koreans had a very feudal system in place with absolutely no middle class. You were either filthy rich, or you were filthy poor. And if you were filthy poor, then you were getting conscripted to fight against the invading Japanese, who really were invading China--Korea just happened to be in the way. Japan had no ocean-going vessels until after the arrival of the Portuguese--they had only small fishing boats which is why they had to invade China through the Korean Peninsula. Their fishing boats wouldn't have survived an ocean crossing. And yeah, "what the Korean people want" is an anachronism because right now, the only thing that matters are what the NKs want, and what the US wants because the US doesn't want to give up its foothold there, and has a bad habit of always wanting a puppet in charge that can be controlled by CIA handlers. The reason you won't see wide-scale devastation is because the US will never relinquish their base in South Korea, and they may possibly never relinquish their base in Okinawa. They need to protect their geo-political interests in Asia, and that includes the poppy fields in the golden triangle that the French screwed up back in the 50s. Heroin is useful not just to criminals, but to governments with the wherewithal to use sinister methods of political control. It is no coincidence that after the Vietnam war, suddenly, destabilizing countries by importing illegal narcotics was in vogue. We may never know the true tally of how much money the CIA/NSA has made off of illegal narcotics sales, and how much influence that dope has had on the world itself. Remember, 4000 tons. Heroin production jumped from 180 tons to 4,000 tons in Afghanistan after the CIA showed up, within one growing season. Systematic institutionalization indeed. Beginning to seem more and more like A Brave New World, only, instead of Soma, it's methadone and prozac.

What if you created a separate map outside of the pipboy interface, like in a book, or something? That way, you'd avoid having to deal with the scripting issues of the pipboy itself. Although couldn't you just assign markers to a handful of random groups (say 5-10, exact number varying depending upon certain conditions that can be preset) so that their markers appear on the map? Wonder if there's a way to do so without touching the pipboy map, which is why I mentioned just creating an entirely new map interface outside of the pipboy, like a paper map or a map in a book. Failing the map option entirely, the dialogue options are still possible, and would just require minimal scripting similar to the mods that automate your settlers collecting junk, selling items in the stores, etc.

Well, first, let's back up the bus. It's not in the US's global strategic interests to have peace in the Middle East. Why? Simple: Oil. With all the muslim countries at each other's throats over ideological differences (usually, the kind that involve infidels and jihad), the US can sit in the middle of it and soak oil at cheap prices compared to what the rest of the world pays. The US has fostered the internecine warfare there for oil and heroin, and so that they don't have to deal with a single, united muslim force because if that muslim force (nation) decided to follow certain haddiths of mohammad that say kill the infidel, jihad, yadda yadda, that means they'd have an entire hostile nation to contend with (shades of Iran all over again) in control of oil (which means no more cheap prices and our military power and ability to project said power is hampered), and heroin (no more dirty wars funded by drug money for the CIA, no more population control, no more nation-destabilizing capabilities, less dope here at home to cause crime and poverty and keep the Americans with their head in the sand while the plutocrats rape the nation). So when it comes to NK, you have to ask yourself one question. Who stands to profit? Where is the money flowing? Who profits off of NK continuing to ignore the UN? Someone is making a profit off this, believe that, either in money or in geo-political power. Frankly, NK should have been turned into a peninsula of glass decades ago. If the US was serious about keeping nukes out of the hands of NK, they would have done so. As it stands right now, you have Iran supplying the NKs with stolen fissile material, war materiel, weapons, technology, and who knows what else, and then turning around and blaming Russia, who in turn blamed the Ukraine. If they really wanted to end it, the US, China and Japan would have simply concentrated their military power to that peninsula, and then engaged in a 10-hour war, because that's about how long it would take to wipe Little Rocket Man and his paper tiger army off the face of the planet. Without a single nuke being fired. The problem is the aftermath: Who gets to put someone in power once that vacuum is achieved? China? Or the US? And therein lies the real crux of the problem. China doesn't want a US-puppet on its front porch, and we don't want another commie state to deal with.

Which part and why? Can't have a dynamic script running when the map is open to show where all the random Minutemen patrols are? Failing that, why not just a simple dialogue option like: 1. Damn it, Preston! Go do it yourself! 2. I'll take this one myself, no need to trust it to people who will bungle the job. 3. Grab some of the soldiers from the barracks and take them with you, Preston. 4. Tell the settlement to sod off, we have death claws to deal with. If you're the head of the Minutemen, shouldn't you be able to look at a map, be able to assign troops to certain areas (if for no other game effect than to reduce random encounters with hostile NPCs to reflect that the Minutemen are making it less dangerous to be out and about)? Isn't that what a general does? I'd like to see more done with the factions like that. Maybe even a simple map script to turn sections of the map a different color when you've "conquered" that area to show the spread of the Minutemen (or whatever faction you belong to)? There's so much more that could have been done with this system...
