[Download Speed - Premium]

It's absolutely horrible right now. I just moved to Florida and the speed on the website is so slow... it took 3 minutes to load ONE PAGE and that's on 1 Gbps download speed.

 

It's happened before, but that was in Illinois and it cleared up eventually. It hasn't cleared up this time.

[Whitescreen - Reasons]

I get this reliably every time I try to view my "save games" for Fallout 4 VR. It just says "exception" and refers me to this thread.

[[WIPz] Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE)]

I'm sure this gets asked quite a bit, but are you planning a VR version of F4SE yet?

 

Big fan, by the way.

 

Thanks.

[Automatron DLC VR Fix is live.]

Yeah.. this actually WORKS! I just did the automatron DLC for the first time! So cool in VR!

I use that one. I meant the Extra Life Mod so you can skip the intro.

Someone (Dark) want to please help me make some sense of this? Because this feels very strongly of "Do as we say, not as we do"...

Dark0ne wrote: Here are where donations are mention in our ToS in the context of your post:

Please ensure you are respectful when talking about donations and do not "over do it". An example of "over doing it" would be having a banner or blurb of text talking about donations at the top of your mod description before you've even described what your mod does, or regularly reminding your users in the comment section of your file pages to donate. Tactful discussion of donations would be informing your users they can donate and how to donate somewhere towards the bottom of your file description and/or in your readme file, acknowledging and thanking those users who have donated and who have explicitly agreed to having that information shared with others, a single sticky post in your file comments reminding users they can donate and responses to your users who have specifically asked you how they can donate to you.

What are you struggling with, exactly? The rules are in place to prevent mod authors from plastering Patreon/Donation links all over their mod descriptions to the detriment of the actual point of the mod description -- explaining what your mod does.

Can you explain how us adding a link on the site to a Patreon page to directly support this initiative is confusing you?

because I don't remember that being there at all. ¯\_(:/)_/¯

2 things: 1) That the initiative needs "supporting" at all is confusing to me, as I was under the impression that Nexus already gets (very) ample funds from all the advertisements and so on it pulls in as it is. 2) In a general sense, I suppose the confusion largely stems from that the Author Donate link is right up top of the website, but that the TOS prevents a mod author having their own link at the top of their mod description. Just seems a bit conflicting, I guess. Maybe I'm wrong. idk. Like I said, I'm confused. ¯\_(:/)_/¯

As for why it's "needed" -- it's explained in this news post and on the Patreon page. It isn't "needed", we're already donating a considerable sum ourselves when we don't have to. This is for users of the site to get involved in the process and "chip in".

Arthmoor wrote: @SkylerModder You're reading way too much into a simple situation.

Arthmoor, actually he's right and it's a bit confusing. I've seen people get their mods removed due to Patreon links, but now they are allowed to remind people that they can donate to the larger "pot" of Patreon funds.

I'm not sure which is right or why, but it's definitely a bit of a kick in the teeth for those modders that have been penalized for this in the past.

Tabris999 wrote: I feel this could end up making some authors priorize requests by donors over other users. It could also make some people think authors owe they something for being large donors.

Most modders generally appreciate donations and put those donors' requests on the forefront as a matter of courtesy anyway.

The second one probably wouldn't happen, but they would be wrong if they felt that way.

But, it was just a suggestion to help you guys get more donations. There has to be some form of incentive if you want more than $1 each.

It's not really about Patreon... it's about the modders getting recognized and getting an incentive to continue their great work for the community. Without this website I would have grown bored with these games a LONG time ago. And without a place for modders to put their work where it would be received and commented about, some of them wouldn't have continued either.
