Everyone, including Nexus and other YT creators know that ads are annoying but the alternative (currently) is to not exist. Selling products of any kind is not something that anyone who has to make a living from this realm, while continuing to be a part of it and growing within it, can count on (sales for things like this are bonuses). Even so, personally, ads alone will never even come to close to helping me pay just for the equipment/costs of creating. Thank Talos for Patreon (my form of Premium/Supporter Memberships). Took 4 years to break even on PC parts with the help of pledges. I do the same thing that Nexus is doing here. If you allow me to keep existing while doing what I enjoy I try to give you perks/"thank you's" that I'm capable of giving without alienating everyone else. Nexus isn't changing anything here other than giving some supporters a "thank you" in a way that they are able to while encouraging site growth.Kaebus wrote: That's a really good way to express it, and one I wholly agree with. I'll have to remember that ^^fftfan wrote: I think Patreon is a pretty cool thing(so long as used responsibly & fairly). I haven't noticed any hassles related to Patreon so it really does seem to me like your channel is an example of Patreon being used well, as a way for us to express support. I think this is fantastic.
Some channels do a sponsor segment, I think it might anger some people but I am potentially sometimes fine with it when done within reason. For instance Linus Tech Tips I don't terribly mind since it's only once, is under 30 seconds( I think it's more like 15-20 seconds) and has a cutaway which means we can skip ahead to where we see Linus again without any sponsor logos and get on with things. Though I would caution that if it did get more intrusive I would stop watching a channel. If he made it longer or mixed up when it'll be or anything to increase visibility of it then I'd stop. Cases where I mind it less are where it's consistent, predictable, and very brief like at the 0:40-1:00 mark we're certainly passed it already. Best way if doing it is to have introduction, sponsor segment and then get into things within the first minute. With your channel though care is needed since when I'm viewing your info about the CK/other mod tools/other information heavy videos since especially when problem solving things related to modding something like sponsor segment could be a real bother, we might already feel frustrated since we might be trying to solve specific problems on our game/mod projects and be researching for that purpose. Overall I feel for your channel that Patreon as used by you is a superior approach.
About equipment it might be something reasonable since your channel is pretty notable IMO to ask if anyone would give you some as a sponsoring thing. Big gaming channels often have them sitting in brand name gaming chair, wearing brand name headset, maybe sticker on their PC tower and they might be briefly saying "Thanks to EVGA or whoever for the GPU I am using"(The one guy I see do this only brought up the GPU they gave him exactly once ever). Or they might have it at bottom of description "PC hardware used".
I think a lot of people adblocking on Youtube likely started after 2 minute unskippable ads(that can happen multiple times in a video) became a thing, though to be fair I heard that may have been a bug in their system. I believe it was going to be a policy by Google that got reversed due to backlash. I always adblock on sites because I have found advertising networks to be completely irresponsible with user safety, it's been known as a rule for as long as I can remember that clicking any ads can generally be expected to have a high risk of infecting your PC. My opinion is that networks are apathetic about user safety and also the reputations of sites, they're generally not liable for anything since the websites themselves would take the blame so the network doesn't care. I have been adblocking constantly for over 10 years since getting a PC killing virus served by a banner ad that did not require any clicks to infect my PC. Also on mobile data when roaming it's quite a bother when sites have auto-play videos plus LTE being really fast meaning it'll instantly preload a 400mb video just to read an article. GameSpot is particularly bothersome in this regard since it'll default to high quality so usually 1080p@60fps, if it's a video review that would be 1GB right there which is a lot on roaming and if there wasn't auto-play it would do so only if we deliberately click Play. Users adblock because it saves a lot of time and greatly improves online safety, possibly the top safety measure even above having antivirus of course besides visiting known bad sites.
But I do like to support sites like the Nexus so I have bought Supporter membership a few years ago and might get Premium sometime in the future. Perhaps I may have to try to remember to re-visit videos I like and already watched on a muted Edge browser to help out.
I... I know of at least one other alternative.
Going to work.
It sucks, but it is an alternative to finance your hobby.
>Some channels do a sponsor segment, I think it might anger some people
Yeah, I hate when channels do that. Some handle it sensibly, like putting the sponsored message AFTER the video, so I don't have to watch it (Numberphile, a very good channel on YT does that). Some put them at the beginning, which is quite annoying, but again, can be skipped ( I wonder if anyone made an extension that does that automatically for certain channels). And then there are people who deserve a road straight to hell for putting them in the middle of their videos.

Has anything changed in that topic? I'd like to see if there is a tool that reverts the process of changing NIFs. Bethesda had to mess everything up with SE...

Oh, dear lord... First you add the patreon, the weird mod points, and now a gift shop. This used to be a site dedicated to modding, not spending money. I have to admit I am completely disappointed with the way Nexusmods is taking. It pleases common folks, but sets more and more dangerous precedences, linking earning and spending money with a once-pure hobby.

So this is how modding finally dies and becomes monetized. With thunderous applause from its last bastion of freedom. Shame really.
dikr wrote: "User files: 0"
I shouldn't worry too much about that. Nexus will first and foremost be a free platform; free to download a metric ton of awesome user made content and free to share your own mods with others, that is. The donations come from the platform itself rather than directly from users (which few ever opt to do anyway), that's a notable difference compared to say, Creation Club. If anything, it's an added incentive for people to create and share mods and that's never a bad thing. As most of us modders are used to the fact that we don't earn anything with it and do it for fun and contribution anyhow.MPDStudios wrote: I don't think it's the sort of monetization you're envisioning at the moment. Modders are not selling their mods, nor are they selling it to a distributor, i.e. giving the rights to their content to Nexus to sell as they like, but are being given a certain amount of money based on the popularity of their creations, which is a direct contributor to the popularity of the site.
I'm open to suggestion here, but I don't see how this limits freedom in terms of what can be popularized, uploaded, or created. Sure, it encourages creators to make larger, more refined mods/content in order to meet the requirements of the Donation Points system and generate some revenue, as big mods really don't make much off donations anyway, but it doesn't make small creations, niche mods, or simple fixes less important/harder to upload. It doesn't change the uploading/hosting system of Nexus at all, in reality.
So think of it less as Creation Club, in which users sell their mods, and more of say, youtube's monetization system, in which creators are paid by the site to have popular content.
Also, @dikr, number of files one has uploaded has nothing to do with this person's perfectly valid opinion. -

New site design... I HATE it! It has so many problems.
1. The text is blurry and unreadable.
2. There are sooooo many missing files that can only be accessed using the old.nexusmods.com address that don't show up on the new one.
3. The comments won't load in on the new site. Even waiting FOR ONE WHOLE HOUR didn't do any good. All it did was idle at loading. Trying the same thing on the old site and the comments loaded right in. With no problem.
4. The title text and the images are blurry as hell and can't be read or seen.
5. Trying to download on the new site is a NIGHTMARE. It doesn't work. I can only download from the old site now.
6. The new site glitches the page halfway down and jumbles everything together.
7. Half the links don't work and lead to empty pages.
8. Page loading speeds on the new site are 50% slower.
9. To put it bluntly it looks like CRAP now.
In short the whole thing looks bad. You should ashamed for inflicting this thing on us. What did we ever do to piss you off so much you would give us this horror?

Why can't you just leave the old.nexusmods.com site up as well?

I am really trying hard forcing myself to suffer through it, but it's just impossible and frustrating. On a mobile the site is PERFECT! It looks good, it feels good... except the mod pages which are ugly as hell no matter where you view them from. But it's just not worth sacrificing something that was perfect in order to make a mobile version more better.
I'll keep on surviving until the final launch day and see what changes happen from now till then. All I can do until then is just offer my opinion on the matter and like you said... adapt or die.
I am forced to death however because I really can't stand another Bethesda.net lookalike.
I am under no illusion that my opinion or me quitting matters at all, after all I'm just another random peon who already got milked for money and will be forgotten after a day of departure... but I would like to remain on this site... hopefully... :(

Yeah, it was perfectly normal, back in 2010 before responsive design really took off and became a standard.
Ironically enough, 2010 was right about where the Nexus' previous design was stuck.menathradiel wrote: All right. (that would be why all the major websites have a mobile version, because that is a thing of the past.... but shhhhh, not your point, is it.) What part of this design is "responsive" to me? The part where it's arbitrarily decided that my description layout is not good enough as I have coded it and decides to break it?
Don't get me wrong. I'll get used to the new design, but I'll also have to spend time making my mod page layout compatible with PC users again, which is insane when you think about the fact that this site is for people who use mods for PC games.HomicidalGrouse wrote: The entire site is responsive. Which is why the layout changes to accommodate your display's width, which is an incredibly common strategy for dealing with many different users across many different devices, and it's far easier to design and maintain than two or more separate designs under potentially multiple different subdomains.
Interestingly enough, you could get two different designs entirely by using the very same media queries and scripting that is used to make a single design responsive. Since you're apparently a web designer/developer/maintainer, you surely know that this is all that a responsive design is... one that conforms to the device that it's being viewed on.
The request here isn't one that can easily be accommodated by that though. The request is to keep two COMPLETELY different designs live and maintained because some people don't like the new one, which you should know is an unreasonable request considering this design is not only so radically different from the previous, but also adequately accommodates both mobile and desktop devices.
The request is made even more unreasonable because of your own stated issue of corrupted mod page layout. It has been known since they opened up this redesign to mod authors that mod description formatting doesn't translate well between the two designs and many pages need to be updated to once again conform to the author's vision. This works both ways, as making edits to the page on either the old design or the redesign results in the opposing design being broken in various ways. To fix this, one of these designs would have to be changed regardless, in order to create format parity between the two, and there would still be various issues caused by the change in colors and overall design philosophy that would cause unintended results based simply on the author's own preference for one version of the site over the other.
Keeping both sites live and optional is not a wise idea.menathradiel wrote: "Keeping both sites live and optional is not a wise idea"
Because most people would choose the old design, and we can't have that.pacfish wrote: The layout of text is the biggest issue I have. The reason the old site was so great was because the information
was in a confined spot. Typically a page would only have access to about this much room per line to get their
point across before a new line was created. It makes for a much easier read on screens.
The new site has it's perks. But it is also missing some old features. Things are not where they used to be. And
content is disrupted. That is why so many people dislike the new site. They want something that works. They are
the stable release users. The bleeding edge are the people using MO2 on SSE with SKSE64. The stuff doesn't
work 100% of the time. But the creators need feedback or things will go unchanged.
Our disgust with the new site is voiced because we have criticisms. And they should be heard because ultimately
it can lead to competing website that does it better. People need to be able to give proper criticism and the
maintainers need to be able to understand what it is we are saying. With the Steam workshop, the adult themed
LL site, the drama surrounding the Nexus, Bethsda's creation club, etc the last thing I think the modding community
wants is another splinter.
The site is too buggy in it's current status to go live. There are also missing features that we have grown
accustomed to. Like text fitting in a a width that is readable. If you view this specific post on a mobile platform,
It won't look right. But on a computer, it should read much easier than any of the other posts at full resolution.
Lets say 1080p because I don't know what the site uses and I know that is what I'm writing it on.
I think it's awesome that the site is mobile friendly but that's not where the audience is. I'll watch a youtube video
on mobile but I have a hard time responding to comments of videos on my phone. That said I'm not going to read
a mod description or browse the forums of the Nexus on my phone. I do honestly believe that this update was
for moderators, admins, and active modders awho made the request for a mobile version of the site so they can
respond to a forum more quickly. But I think the correct solution would have been to make an app for the two
environments that can use the information it gets from the server and presents the user with an enjoyable
experience while viewing content on their mobile devices. This could have been a web based app or the
traditional app from the app store. Yes it's more work but if you do it right, you only have to do it once. AND the
content is still accessible where it matters to the majority of the users: on a monitor larger than your hand.
It would be cool to see what this looks like on a 16k display. Guess I'll ask Linus if he still has that ridiculous setup
and see if he'll view a dynamic website like this one.HomicidalGrouse wrote: @pacfish
It looks the same on a 16k display because the site's content has a maximum width of 1280 pixels. A little wider than I usually use for my sites (I generally follow the 960 grid system), but not exactly uncommon. It doesn't scale to match ridiculous resolutions or aspect ratios, though the background image does.
Because of the responsive nature of the site, you COULD choose to view it snapped to half the width of your screen or otherwise restrict the width of your browser window yourself if the width of the content bothers you too much. Not saying that it's ideal, but it is a way to nullify the issue on your end. I do accept the issue with ultra-wide text displays being less readable than properly wrapped paragraphs. There is plenty of documentation supporting this fact.
And of course people can post their opinions and concerns. That's the entire point of this being open to everyone in the final weeks of development. That being said, I try to correct incorrect information when I see it, and I try to explain why things may not be as easy or as logical as others seem to think them to be.
Sometimes, decisions have to be made. It's not always as simple as just leaving both options on the table forever just to appeal to everyone's nostalgia. There's a lot of valid criticism of this new design, as well as a lot of emotion thinly veiled as criticism. Explaining why the latter isn't feasible is perfectly valid, no matter how much certain individuals may want to completely ignore those explanations.pacfish wrote: Thanks for the info on the larger resolution screens.
Yeah I can adjust the screen but even at half the resolution, using Windows snapping tools, on an ultrawide the sight layout it much too wide though I don't get a background image (which is important for realizing which version of skyrim some link took me to -- doesn't even matter on the new site because the se logo is covered at every resolution). On a 'normal' 16:9 1080p screen it's also too wide unless I also use window's snapping tools to cut it in half. Portrait mode almost works.
But again, who is the site for? phone modders or pc modders?pintocat wrote: "@SharraShimada: It is normal for a website to have a desktop and mobile version - and I know this because I maintain several - so your point is rather invalid."
Are your website as complicated as this one? -
I do hope you will leave the old design as an option. The old one is way better and less cluttered. Don't force things down our throats. The " Don't fix what's not broken" is exactly the argument I'd use if I had to describe the new look. Utterly horrible.

Sadly, that didn't work for me. With these settings, I still sometimes get the weird inverted colours bug.

Can this thing merge formlists? Cos that would be useful.

Starting it manually did not work, which usually means some of the aliases needed for the quest were not properly set up (for example, some might have been disabled, while the quest needed them to be enabled). I haven't gone through every single one of them (and there's quite a lot of them), neither have I figured out what exactly starts that quest (I suppose it's a sendevent thing). I might post here more if I find out what might be causing it.
EDIT 1: My hypotesis was correct! I made A Very Silly Patch that made all the aliases on CWAttackCity quest optional (a lot of them were optional already). Upon loading a save from before Galmar's speech, I was able to continue the quest! Now I will load that patch again, and I will try to undo my changes, one by one. I will mark my progress here.
Edit2: First progress. In my setup, CityFieldCOImp seems to be bugged. Leaving him not optional fails to start the quest. in three hours I'm going on holidays, so I doubt I'll be able to figure the culrpit before :D
Edit3: Hm.... The actor that would be chosen is being edited both by Usleep and (in my case) by patchus maximus, but neither of these edits do anything important; their edits do not do anything harmful. So the field general must be somehow being edited on the fly by some other mod. I'll keep looking into it, but that might be difficult to pinpoint. What is weirder is that this guy can be dead, disabled or reserved. So... perhaps he's not there? He is being chosen by conditions.
Edit4: Okay, for some utterly bizarre reason, Legate Quentin Cipius, or whatever his name was, was a) disabled (which isn't a big deal), and b) was in Valtheim towers. Not in Whiterun, which means his location did not match the one in conditions. So, a new enigma arises - what on earth was he doing there?
Edit5: None of my mods make permanent edits to that guy's reference, gotta see if somehing's moved into valtheim towers

In response to post #41272325. #41274465, #41275065, #41275135, #41275585 are all replies on the same post.That is very, very true. I do hope that the authors will give us options instead of shoving the new design down our throats.J Allin wrote: If it aint broke, don't fix it... ;)pedantic wrote: Sage advice :)sonogu wrote: Which must have been told more than a year ago, before the hundreds of hours hard work :)HadToRegister wrote:

These are the news I found about the redesing of the site... It's been a while and have been announced in every step. -
Perhaps to monitor one's page, or respond to comments? Although god knows how can one do that on a non-existent keyboard.

>This may be a little controversial, but we have discovered through extensive research and heat-mapping that this part of the site is often skipped over and our users jump straight into the game of their choice. We’re hoping that having the news and articles close to the top of the site will interest enough people to take a look.
Wait, you were surprised by the fact that the site oriented around mods will make people omit the news section? Really?
I do hope the front page can be customised, so we can turn on and off things we don't like. For example, the supposedly "popular" or "trending" choices. We all know that most of them will be half-naked gals, instead of actual worthwhile content. Or the news - if people didn't like them, why force it? I hope I could do things like on the frontpage of one's Deviantart, where you can hide and switch different elements to your liking.
Other than that, the design doesn't really look any better or worse than the current style. I'm glad that you have finally realised that PC screens are horizontal and not vertical - dropping the elongated form definitely will help.
Will it be possible to leave the current skin while retaining the functionality of the new version? That is one thing I really wish for: options. Lots of them. Allow people to shape the visage of the website they are viewing.

It's not being about being intelligent or falling for any ad scams. I still vividly remember when I first encountered my properly horrible ad on-line. I just had my PC fixed, I turned on one of the news sites, and then the screen went black. Completely, without any means to recover, no cursor, just black. I had heart in my throat, and then, when I was about to scream, an image of some new brand of car appeared in the middle of my not-so-dead screen via a full-screen flash ad. That day I switched from IE6 to Firefox, and never went back.
So it's about preventing the browser doing something you definitely don't want to, and if you do search a bit, you'll learn they can do much worse than that. If nexus has some ways of preventing such malicious (or just annoying) activities, then it's all and good, but their promise (or their ad providers' promise) is not enough for me, I have to make sure it's on my end as well.
