  1. After a crash and reload of MO2 and complete reup of all mods in my game, have forgotton the mod that offers " Use" or " cloud storage" at each crafting station, unfortunately my download records do not reflect the mod, anyone know of which I speak?
  2. Being a player who lives in the USA, where your every move is being battered by schemes to nickel and dime you until you go dry, I am aware of the fact that Valve and Bethesda are an industry leader and all about making money. Most of what we do nowadays we will have to pay for, if not now, later. There are some points to consider in all of this muddy water,however. 1.) The fact that Steam workshop is so narrow in the type of product it allows in it's modding, mostly "family" type content is something that I see as some censorship of developers on their site. They have a right, they pay for the whole thing. 2.) The percentages that were being bandied about were so one sided toward the house ( Valve-Bethesda) w/ the developer/modder only taking a 25% share ( of course you can imagine all the add-in deductions that would occur) 3.) The future quality ratings of mods being turned over to an acceptance review panel to control based on trend popularity rather than actual individual content, ( 15 types of Avenger Dragonborn mods with an endless range of rainbow colored sheilds and armor, as well as SpiderMan web color changes placed on spell buttons, oh boy !) 4.) The inability of younger player/modders who have limited budgets to be exposed to groundbreaking and thought provoking material simply because they are being pounded with constant "buy-now" banners instead of free content. By the way wasn't free content the way a lot of us started in the building field to begin with? And isn't it a shame some super imaginations who could well be the next world shaking RPG originators end up playing mindless shooter games, thinking this is the boundry line of development because it's the most popular. 5.) To say that modders are not entitled to monies for their work is not quite the way to look at it either, as many give up on development to "get a job and support their hobby". There must be a better way than put the future of gaming into the hands of the "McDonalds" of gameplay stores. Nexus also needs a cash flow to remain in existence. The fact that we all can come here and download instantly any content we wish should not put that fact in a dark corner. Personally I cannot fathom why anyone would put out a game that could not be modded, as the base game must be owned to mod it . I think also modding games leads to new spinoffs from that base for new worlds as has been done by Bethesda. I have seen this market go from text only games a few people huddled in computer stores played due to lack of public equipment availability, to absolute garbage phone apps that charge folks $9.99 to cause wrecks while driving. I will say to the outstanding mod creators who place their work on Nexus and other sites that I sincerely appreciate your long nights and weekends letting light reach the dark corners of your imagination and tirelessly achieving the great things we players spend our long nights and weekends so eagerly discovering. Sorry for the lengthy post, but ........
  3. I can remember, not long ago in fact, when the "Internet" was first "created" and the originality and imagination of thousands of minds exploded onto text screens all over the world. The amount of screens were limited, as only a few "geeks" knew about all of this and a lot was kept a secret. The info and incredible amount of programing and "modding" were like candy to some of us and believe it or not it was all free! Then came Microsoft. Who knew this marvelous land of OZ we were afloat in was about to be filled with sharks and buzzards. Not only were the programs now to be "subscribed", but also with an annual "recharge" fee. Now, of course some 40 years later, here we are on a site that has nurtured and "burped" new modders and programers, for free! I am in debt to Dark0ne for the content hosted on the Nexus and I am sure I speak for thousands when I say that your foresight must have been a gift from the Gods. For what you have already accomplished for so many, I thank you and assure you of my support until Ragnarok.
  4. Thanks Chaseman this is the proper combination to make the white screen move on, brilliant ! Now you must remember to create a new patch (to replace the one in "Merged"), then delete the contents of the "Patch" file you created and copy the new 'Merged' file in that folder for your mods to work.
