  1. Warning: Double Downloads I'm seeing a nexus issue with downloads: Clicking Download With Manager starts a download in Vortex, no problem. But, the nexus popup with the Donate option then slowly fades in a Download button. This implies that the download has been delayed but is now available. If you click on this new button, you will initiate a second download of the same mod. This will require you to later remove the second instance from Vortex. Confusing and very annoying until you catch what's going on - which is not as obvious as it sounds here. Otherwise, so far, so good - still working on conflict resolutions, of course. Keep The Baby, Faith. :)
  2. Okay, I've downloaded the alpha and I will give it a fair roll with SSE and FO4. I'll give it a shot. But after reading all the 'Who is Vortex for?' and 'Why Vortex?' pages, I'm a little trepidatious about this: I'm told that this is for people who play games I'm not interested in, for people who don't want to manage their own load orders, but it's Modern and has Close nexus Integration. Okay, but it's not at all clear what I have to gain here. I'll keep my legacy MO setups for FNV and Skyrim. I already have profiles and close nexus integration, but I see you're planning to take that away. I sincerely hope it's not so, but after following this for two years, it seems Dark0ne may have erred in requiring a one-size-fits-all solution. Maybe it would have made more sense to fork the development at Bethesda and non-Bethesda. More difficult, yes, but a lot more durable. No offense intended, just an outsider's view. Time will tell and I do hope I'm wrong. All the best, ff
  3. First I want to say thank you nexus for many many hours of fun! I did try, but I wasn't been able to read all 103 pages here. Personally, I don't care so much about colors or look-and-feel. My main interest here at the generally great nexusmods site is usability and there are some problems there with the redesign. In particular: Search 1) Where is Advanced Search? It used to be (fairly) easy to go to the drop down for Advanced search and use the Description Contains option to find a mod whose title you couldn't quite remember or a mod that affected a particular aspect of the game. Now the only search field available seems to require you to know the exact name of the specific mod you are looking for. 2) One option that was very much needed then and is still not available is the ability to look up a mod by its Nexus ID number. Why shouldn't such a basic reference be available to search? If I put 39358 (Improved Casinos) into the new search field, I still get no results. WUWT? A few smaller things: 1) I may be wrong on this, but after modding for a while things like unique downloads and total views are a lot less important than Last Updated and Changelogs. Some things given prominence in the new design matter a lot more to site admins than users and that may be having a bit of influence on the reactions seen here. 2) It would be very nice if there was a way to drill down into Categories more easily. Many mods overlap the unavoidable broadness of categories. Surely there's some way to build a cross ref database that allows for subsets? just asking... All in all , I would just ask that function be given a leg up on form here, no offense. Thanks, and keep up the by-and-large great work!
