Look its the new Pornhub.......cept it's for mods. :D

If authors do it like Chesko did I actually don't have a problem with it. His model is that he is going to release mods behind a paywall on Workshop and then while the mod is being bugtested and updated it will remain there. When it is stable it will be released on the Nexus for free. I am fine with this as I have waited for many mods to be released so it won't really affect me. Also I tend to wait for mods to get the bugs sorted out anyways before I download them.

In response to post #24572719. #24572849, #24573089, #24573569 are all replies on the same post. Fiftheded.

So if someone puts up a mod for $1 per download. What is to stop someone else from making a similar mod and putting it up for free. I just foresee a big increase in copycat mods. Quest mods are about the only mod I can think of that are truly unique from one another.

In response to post #23860899. I think it would harm "epic" mods. The problem is that over time any game is going to have a dwindling player base as people gradually move on to the next game. If you are a modder and you know you are going to be paid do you focus on mods that you can complete in a shorter period of time when the player base is higher or one a huge mod that takes years to make and by the time you release it the player base will be much smaller. Even if you can charge more for the epic mod the number of people wanting to purchase it would be significantly less than before. There is also the problem of competition. If a bunch of groups work on large scale mods after a year or couple of years there will be more and more of those mods released further diluting the market. If I was a modder and monetary compensation was an incentive I would focus on mods that could be completed in a couple of months not years.

After being burned a couple of times with STEAM early access titles that have gone nowhere over the last several months a I worry about quality assurance and refunds if the mods do not perform as advertised. If they can solve that then I am more than happy to pay something for mods as modders do put a ton of work into what they do and obviously they make the games significantly better in doing so. What I see happening is mods pumping out some flashy graphics and hyping themselves into oblivion (no pun intended) and releasing a subpar mod that is broken and then not sticking around to fix the issues. As I mentioned this has happened with STEAM early access games which in some respects reflect what would happen. After all many of the games are being developed by small groups of indie game makers who would be called modders except for the fact they are getting paid.

Does this require discussing "feelings" with other people?

Please, please, please please please let it be Fallout 4. TES is a great series but pales in comparison to the Fallout games.

I am confused........so profiling is a good thing again?

I have started two new games now and for whatever reason whenever I leave Nipton and head towards Novac all of a sudden my game starts to lag like crazy. Prior to that it runs smooth as silk at a constant 40 fps (I have my framerate capped at 40 in the NVSR plugin). At first I thought it was related to the mission where you have to check out Nipton for the sniper chick but I avoided that this last time around and I still started lagging on the way to Novac.

I have no idea why but eventually I start getting lag around Novac. Somtimes I can walk to 188 but it starts up there then. This is f*#@ing annoying.

I have this exact problem with Immersive Patrols (the battle bots) and for some reason Vigilant Tyranus. It definitely has something to do with becoming a werewolf because as soon as i infect myself they istantly go hostile while other npcs and vanilla patrols just go on as normal. The weird thing is that this never happened till this last weekend when I did a fresh install of Skyrim and all my mods.

It says that Nexus now supports all PC games. Is there a definitive date for when the Toilet Tycoon page will be up an running? http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2013/01/10/wot-i-stink-toilet-tycoon/

I love how this site will be fixed at a tiny fraction of the cost and time that Healthcare.gov is taking. :P And this site looks a hell of a lot cooler.

Interested in trying this.......has anyone had their computer turn into a mindless killing machine after installing the alpha? I have a big monitor and lots of cables so my computer could be pretty deadly if it wanted to.

I have tried lots of them and I keep coming back to simply using Realistic Lighting with Customization and some texture packs. They seem to focus on one area for example interiors and they do indeed make them really nice but then they are completely borked in another area like the snow and ground outside being super bright. I am to lazy to switch the ENB on and off depending on my location so I finally gave up on them.

I am looking forward to it as well. I am not much for isometric games usually cept my old snes,PS and Genesis games I still play but I can deal with that. What I am more worried about is if it is going to be turnbased. I HATE turnbased combat with a passion.

For RP purposes I currently use: Nord Needs Chesko's Frostfall Camping Kit of the Northern Ranger I have a bunch of other mods but I don't think they fall into the RP, more likely I would call them difficulty enhancing mods.

Awesome.......thanks. :biggrin:

I was recently granted "mod author" priviliges by a modder who is no longer able to remain as active because his work schedule has picked up. I am trying to figure out how to upload a patch file that someone else sent me but I can't seem to figure it out. The file upload buttons simply sends me to a page to set up my own mod. Basically, how do I upload a file for a mod. Is there s super secret hand shake or something. :) It's Athyra's ACE mod if that matters. Thanks in advance.

I would highly recommend that you just avoid upgrading weapons or armor period. It was probably the single stupidest design decision on Bethesda part in the entire game. First of all the game is easy enough without improving the gear. Secondly, no one else has it. I don't mind enchanting because I see enchanted weapons and jewelry all over the place. But you NEVER come across any gear that has been upgraded. Even the smiths won't sell it or temper it for you for a price. This makes no in game sense whatsoever and the first modder or group of modders that figures out how to replace the awful smithing system and bring back repair (albeit better than Oblivion/Morrowinds hammer system) will be my new god and I will build a church (legos or lincoln logs) in their honor. :) What really irks me is that they have anvils,sharpening stones etc. all over the place. What would be more perfect than requiring that you repair your gear at a work station like Dead Island does. Similar to how you have to use an alchemy table to make potions or an enchanting table to enchant gear.

I have tried a ton of ENBs and while I do initally like any change in looks just for varieties sake, the one thing that virutally all ENBs do is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay oversaturate everything. If I want to play World of Warcraft I will go play that game. I much prefer Bethesda's "attempt" at grittier more down to earth graphics compared to Oblivions "disney" color pallete. :sick: I currently use Realistic Lighting with Customization alongside the IMAGINATOR by Gopher which does most of the things that ENB mods do like color tinting and saturation and I also believe DoF as well. This can all be changed in game instead of having to constantly adjust an ini like you have to do with ENBs. Frankly I am suprised that more people just don't use the IMAGINATOR. If I want to change my game up a bit I just call up the power that spawns the guy and pick one of the presets or change something with the menu and I am good to go. No fuss and no having to exit the game. :)

ASIS (someone linked to PISE in an earlier post, that is outdated and plutoman recommend using ASIS) Mighty Dragons (or Deadly Dragons) DO NOT UPGRADE ANY WEAPONS ARMOR.......this is very important as it blows any semblance of challenge in the game out of the water. ACE (or Skyrim Redone) Expert or Master difficulty That is the bare bones for making Skyrim interesting to play.

Hyperion Dwemer Exoskeloton (Light version) Dwemer Mages Armor (Light armor) Dwemer Condensor Dwemer Ripper I am currently finishing up the quest to get a certain Dwemer Staff in Dawnguard which will be my new favorite Dwemer toy Dwemer Enhanced Crossbow which replaced my Dwemer Bow mod. :) Great job Bethesd now if you can just bring back first person to werewolves and horses again. I wish I could use Dwemer Certified but it conflicts with ACE which I simply won't give up for any reason.

This is one of the reasons, I never play female characters in MMOs. I want to play the game myself, and not be stuffed with stuff, where I did not put in any effort to acquire those. What is the point of playing a game, when I would get all effortless anyway? I don't really consider MMOs "games" per say. They are more like social simulators in my opinion. I have yet to find one that has any degree of difficulty attached to it whatsoever with PVP being the obvious exception and even then that pales in comparison to playing a good FPS online with some friends. If you want a hard game against npc mobs then you have to group up in order to do it in raids and that requires investing tons of time into the game otherwise no one will even look at you. I haven't found an MMO yet that has kept my interest passed the first month in most cases. STOR being the latest casualty. The one game that I actually stuck with for a whole three months, which is a record for me, was Fallen Earth. I also played Neocron for a long time but by the time I discovered it, the community was already on its last legs and had been around for several years. :( Shame because it beat the snot out of all the other ones I tried. Until they make an MMO where I am not seeing the farmers daughter I just rescued ten minutes ago back in her cage in the troll camp and quest givers that just stand around and do nothing the entire game I will never consider them anything other than a 3D Facebook. Oh and we need more real time combat games instead of the stupid hotbar hit buttons 1-4 and then do it again over and over again. :wallbash:

I wouldn't say that myself....as a woman I find the male body much more beautiful and attractive than the female body...thus why I guess I am physically attracted to men, not women.... :tongue: ...I play a male Dovahkin for two reasons, yup, I like looking at him (am a third person player, I have never been able to play in first person, I find it very disorientating)...and I like the whole big strong hero kinda deal. And I disagree with above poster Nathanj, just because I as a female play a male and in third person doesn't make me less inclined to RP....He has a detailed back story, as distinctive a personality as the dialogs,etc...allow, a firm moral code...he eats twice a day, drinks regularly (I use a mod that offers more than just alcohol), he sleeps reasonable hours every night, bathes, never fast travels, doesn't swig a potion mid sword swing....and this is all done without mods enforcing it....I'm RP'ing him. I think I just fell in love with you. :wub: I used Frostfall, TRO, Scenic Carriages, only fast travel with carriages. :D You aren't really disagreeing with me though. Are you playing yourself or just RPing someone else. I would love it if Shephard had to repair his gear and when he was on the ship you could eat at the galley for some buff of some kind...........but it would still be Shephard and not me. You have to make the distinction between RPing you yourself or RPing an avatar. When I play my Orc guy even though it is in first person I have to put myself into the mindset of an Orc. Thankfully that is very easy because every possible issue that comes up can be solved with my two handed warhammer. :D When I played an Altmer I always picked the snidest remarks because everyone knows that Altmer are conceited jackasses. When I play myself as one of the human races I make the decisions that I myself would make. Even my goody goody gumdrops Paladin is fairly mercenary as I always push for rewards first when they pop up in the dialogues......why? Because that is how I would be in real life. I am NOT going into that dungeon until I know exactly what I am getting for a reward and if possible I want half up front. :P
