HeyYou

With Vortex, your mod staging folder needs to be on the same drive as the game. Your downloads folder can be anywhere.

I came to the conclusion that what race you choose, only has any real impact in the early stages of the game. Once you get up some levels, there is essentially no difference between the races.....

You are likely bumping up against one of the other, less understood, limits then. You can only have so-many esl files, which is a dramatically variable number. You are also limited in how many bsa/ba2 archives you can load. There are likely others we aren't aware of yet as well.

Supposedly, being considered "Hostile" by the BoS *should* open up Railroad quests again, but, it seems even the vanilla game has issues actually doing that..... I am not sure if there IS a fix for it..... aside from completing the quest via console command?

655 files? How many of those are ESLs? I bet it ain't 400...... You are over the 255 file hard limit. It's a wonder the game even starts.

And there ya have it. Completing blind betrayal locks you out of further railroad quests. You would have to revert to a save before you finished that one.

Any idea WHY it is stopped?? Console prolly won't tell ya that.....

In the SFD vid, I do believe Todd (or someone) mentioned that "You can land anywhere you want." Including various points of interest.

The only way to fix that, is going to be loading a save from BEFORE you installed the train mod. Either that, or start a new game. Adding/removing mods mid playthrough is pretty much a guarantee that your save is going to get borked.

Have you tried starting the quest via console first, then doing a setstage to the appropriate point?

Disney is just being politically correct. Unfortunately, they have gone overboard on it, and they are not alone in that. Most of the recent movies/tv series I have seen are going this route. I find it depressing.

And any reasonable sentient being would agree with you, trouble is, given some of the things Putin has said and done, I am not sure if 'reasonable' is word I would use to describe him. If it looks to him like he is going to lose in Ukraine..... I would not bet against him using a nuke...... That will put a whole new perspective on the situation......

If you get easily annoyed by specific questions and don't feel like helping with answers, don't join a discussion. Well that's just it, you HAVE the answers. And it's pretty much "No", you can't upload mod packs here. In all reality, I seriously doubt you would be able to put together much of a pack in any event. Mod packs got a bad name back when folks were doing them without any permissions, and simply uploading them to various sites. (but, not here.....) One of the major objections to collections was, they were viewed as 'mod packs 2.0', which they essentially are... however, folks have to visit each mod page and download it. (except premium members, but, that is a very tiny minority of membership here.) And of course, taking another authors work, including it in YOUR mod, without permission, is also a violation of copyright. Some folks don't care, other folks simply aren't around any more to care, still other folks will allow you to do so, if you give them credit, etc. Including the entirety of someone elses mod in yours without permission, will get you banned here.

I think the major problem folks have with it, is the distribution method, as I described above. No way you are going to get around that. Authors WANT folks to visit their mod page, download/endorse their mod from there. A mod pack, as you want to implement, deprives them of all of that.

I have always likened Reddit to the Mos Isley of the internet...... :D

Some of the offshoots were REALLY good. I don't really care for the direction Disney went with the last three in the Skywalker saga.... They were entertaining.... but, I didn't care for what they did with some of the characters.

Here you go Sir. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/9424 I have never tested the mod myself so try at own risk. :smile: I have been using it for years without issue. I love it. :D

I think its more about the 'one click download' than it is about download speed.....

I already answered that: "The mods here in Nexus don't necessarily need Vortex/managers to be downloaded or installed, the same would be the case with this mods pack." The only way to do that, would be if you had all of the mods, their assets, etc, archive in some fashion, such that you would have ONE truly huge download. If you don't have permission from each and every mod author in that 'mod pack', you would be violating copyright... Nexus won't allow you to upload that here. Yes, it'd be like one huge file, or zipped files for the pack. There are huge mods in Nexus, the size of DLCs or expansions, stored in Nexus, couldn't a mods pack work the same way? About copyrights, there would be no copyright violation, but maybe some violation of Nexus rules, that's why I'm asking for clarification in the forums. The articles in Nexus explain a lot, but still I'd like to know about this more clearly you know. Although they say collections and packs are different, in essence they're the same, there are just different rules applied for each case. Erm, yes, there would. You would be taking someone elses work, and distributing it. If you didn't have permission for EVER mod in your pack, that IS a violation of copyright. No getting around that. File size is irrelevant. With permissions granted there'd be no copyright violations. Idk about violating the rules of Nexus though, that's why I'm asking here, if it's possible or not to upload a mods pack, instead of a collection. Correct. If you had permission for every mod in the mod pack. Don't expect that to happen though. Fair few mod authors are opted in to donation points, which is based on the number of downloads they get. If YOU are distributing their mod, they don't get those downloads.... Even those that aren't opted in, a significant percentage of them still remember all the negative connotations of 'mod packs'.... and want no part of them. Better plan would be to just spring for one month of premium, and then download the collection you want via vortex.

The fact that you think I did this tells me everything I need to know about you. Also, since this thread is clearly already over, Disney did not "ruin" Star Wars. That's a stupid opinion. Well, they certainly didn't follow George Lucas vision for the series.... But then, he sold it, so, new owners get to do what they want.

Indeed... "New" mod manager? Is Vortex going to get replaced?

On the main Mods page for any particular game, there is a button that says "Upload" and gives you a dropdown menu for just what you want to upload.

Let Vortex update.
