  1. I really like it so far ! The only thing that is bothering me is the trending mods box on the main page. Honestly, 7 panels are too much, considering two of them are taking half of the display area of the site (my screen is 1366*768, yes, it literally takes half of the screen !). My advice is to change it on a smaller box with one medium size panel on the left and 4 panels (in a square) on the right. Also, we should be able to choose what's on display on the main page. Personaly, I really don't care about the media section, so an option to disable it would be welcomed ^^ Good job guys !
  2. Hi, My thought is more on the basis that the more the modder is popular, the more he will have a lenient treatment. As said above, there is no excuse. Same rules should apply to modders too. I like to think that a modder's popularity also comes from his reaction to his community. And doing such comments (yeah I kinda agree there are more polite ways) is a reflect/appreciation of the modder's work. And definitely a critic that could lead to improvement. :thumbsup: Anyway, I'm still glad to have Elianora in this community. Some of her mods are must-have ! :happy:
  3. @AnvilOfWar I just wanted to react to this. From my point of view and from what you wrote, you are this type of person we have in France (maybe in other countries too). They were here at the start, they understood the community and the situation at the beginning. But the situation evolved, and they refused to see the change. "It will ever be as before, I can assure you Ma'am!". And then they no longer understand. No offense, just my impression. =================================================================================== Now, for the core of your message : The community has changed. It comes from every country, from every generation and every culture. Bethesda understood that and it's reflected in Fallout 4 (did I miss prostitution and slavery in this game ?). Call it "casualization" if you want (is there a word for that in English ?) Bethesda is a huge company. They make games, but they are here for business. For a lot of people (and surely Bethesda), modders are users that simply modify their games (Fallout 4 or else) with the help of tools they are releasing (GECK). For simplification, you are using/modifying someone's work (Bethesda Games Studios). Obviously they are going to promote their game with it since you use it ! And don't talk about Time/"From scratch meshes/textures/quest/etc", you still need the game (or the engine, the code or I don't know what else) the company made to use it. And the community will accept it because, "u no", you're using their tools/game to mod. Bethesda is here to make cash, and if they need to promote modding for their game, it's their most total right. I talked about the community's changes. The new generation (maybe I am part of it) grew up with this simple expression "Multi-platform". Yeah, when a game is multi platform, like Fallout 4, people are waiting of it that it has exactly the SAME features for every platform. The platform is just a personal choice (price, comfort, social features...). And then they arrive at the mod store (or storage, I don't know the word) and... Vlaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmm !!! "Sacrebleu", as you like to write, English people (yeah, sorry, nobody say that in French, not even the elder ones). Why this mod is on PC and not on my X1/PS4 ? Or why is this mod on consoles and not on my PC ? So they ask, some ask twice, some more, some want it now. (Maybe they are teen ? Do not be naïve, they are teen. I was myself 17 when I started FO4, and younger with FO3). But what they got ? No explanations, no responses... Just "No, I don't like console users" "No, you are not a part of my community, we only accept PC users" "No, modding is for PC, not console" "No, you are all thieves" But what a childish reaction OO It is a huge new part of the community but you are all closing them the door at the nose (yeah, french expression, any equivalent ?). "We do not want of you" They never got mod, it's all new, but instead of teaching them, you treated them as thieves (they are what, hundred for millions ?). All of them. TL;DR : There are efforts to make on both side. But especially on PC users. Yes, us. (Apart threats, that this is highly condamnable. My support to Lordofwar on this). What you seem to forget : it is just a game and from an outside view, this is a just a fight of kids. Especially for something free.
