I'm no defender of this site, and have my own concerns with some of the directions it has went in, and appears to be going in. However, in this particular instance I really have to wonder if (a) we are viewing the same Nexus, because I actually find the new design far more efficient, and (b) whether you bothered to respond to the survey....where you would have had the chance to provide your user input.kat1004 wrote: A survey that was never made known to me. And a survey that at least 80% of users *probably* never saw. I tried the beta for about a day and if I'd known about any survey, I would've responded to it. I'm noticing a lot of problems. Namely with how many times you have to click to do things. Also, the top bar clashes poorly with the website itself.
I have mild arthritis in my right hand. Technically both, but it's always been worse in the right. I always have since as long as I can remember. And I'm right-handed, so I have to use my right hand for my mouse, which hurts even with a decent mouse. With the previous redesign, ugly as it was, I could get to my favorited games with a single click. I didn't have to use the mouse any longer than necessary to get to things. With this one, you have to click twice. Not the worst thing in the world, no, but that clicking adds up. I've already got arthritis, so I'd *really* rather not get carpal tunnel as well.
Also, what about the annoying ad that always pops up and blocks a portion of the screen? Another click, though that was part of the previous redesign, unless you're so used to ads that it doesn't bother you anymore. Not everyone can afford to get supporter or premium to get rid of the ads, and with adblocker, the download speed is cut in half.Sonja wrote: Eh... the survey was right on the Beta page, as I recall, and pretty hard to miss.
That said, my honest sympathies that it isn't working out well for you, and that it's aggravating your health. Hopefully, they'll take your feedback here, at least, under advisement.
In the meantime, if it's an option, is it possible for you to create a thumbnail for the pages of your favourite games on your browser home page/Speed Dial?

I hope they do, but I doubt they will. They didn't last redesign.
It's an option I've already done, but not one that I like. It's a workaround and while workarounds are good, they're *workarounds*. I'd much rather see Nexus care about their users who might or might not have actual physical problems than have to use a workaround.

I think I vaguely remember something about the team working "on something new" but if that's what you're speaking about how were we supposed to guess this was the title of a survey? Especially when nobody seems to care about what we think most of the time anyway?
Also I have pains in the hands and joints too (chronic diffuse neuropathic pains and wounded sciatic nerve) and the first thing I thought when I saw the design was "Oh sht tell me they didn't put everything under the big titles and that we'll have to click to develop". And guess what. More clicks. Another site difficult to check.
I confirm it hurts as hell when you have a physical medical condition and the site is now worse on accesibility for the purpose of unnecessary ~aesthetic changes once again. But again I guess we'll just have thrown at us the whole "deal with it/you'll get used to it" discourse except no. Pains won't "deal with it". But what do you want? Guess we'll use Nexus even less.
If I may ramble a bit: kat do you have a ergonomic mouse? It's a bit odd to use at first but you get used to it after a while. Surprisingly it does relieve my pains a little. I bought one during a sale to have it cheaper (~12-15€). It's still money investment but I personnally consider it as a good one and at least it is applicable to other websites and gaming now I don't know if it would be of any use for your specific condition but it is supposed to avoid a position that is messing with your forearm/wrist.
Soon disabled peoples will have to take more painkillers before even thinking about using internet because it seems there's a trend to do useless redesigns without giving a sht about accessibility on websites these days (may it be administrative/official websites or gaming/forum/distration websites). Anyway. Good luck. Have a nice day/evening. -

It's definitely a Cloudflare issue. Discord is having the same problem, so I'm assuming that once Discord is working again, Vortex and MO2 will also be able to connect to Nexus.
https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
Got no clue when that'll be though, so we'll all just have to sit tight for now.

Also about Fallout engine being old. Yeah well Skyrim is running the same engine - and I don't see an end to modding for it. That engine Is tried and true and for all its failings its guts and innards are now well understood.
This, completely. Also, to add on:
Morrowind runs an ancient version of the same engine, and I'm pretty sure people are still modding that game. Hell, people are still modding Doom, and that's on an older engine than the Creation/Gamebryo engine, and not made by Bethesda, or even remotely as easy to mod properly. And at this point, Minecraft's relatively pretty old (older than Skyrim, if I'm remembering right) and still has a thriving modding community. Fallout 3's modding community is still alive and well (though really starting to die out ever since being able to use NV mods in it through TTW). And don't forget New Vegas, still going strong and picking up speed again thanks to both the releases of New California and TTW 3.2.

They do look very similar. To fix that, I suggest that you use "Unique NPCs", it's a mod that adds a lot of variety to the NPCs in the game.
-
Just leaving a comment, doubt I'll even have a chance though.
-
Some of the features might be nice, but the design itself is reminiscent of the Windows 8 start screen. I've shown both versions of the site to a few web developers in my family. All of them have said the old design was better than the redesign. The blockiness of the redesign is harsh on the eyes, and the site itself is no longer nice and smooth. If there was a way to incorporate new features in the old design, that would be fantastic.

but at least some people put effort into their mods
A LOT of people put massive effort into their mods.
Yes, true, but not all of them made their own assets. Not all of them put the effort into learning how 3D modeling works for their mod. Not all of them even got permission for using others' models in their mods.
-
I agree that the majority of the entries were jokes, but at least some people put effort into their mods, Some people went through and learned how 3D modeling works, how to animate plants, how to make their own custom grenades, how a whole hell of a lot of stuff worked, in order to make their mods. Modern Firearms broke contest rules, from what I have heard. Combustible Lemons was made with wholly custom assets. The author made all of his own models. He did all of the scripting himself. He even made a settlement object for the mod, that charges fusion cores. If any mod in that category deserved to win, it was Combustible Lemons. The whole thing was a farce to get people to submit mods to Bethesda.Net, which is just stupid.

Disregard this, i've discovered it's a problem with XRE Cars.
Sorry for being a gravedigger, but are you sure it's XRE? I've completely uninstalled that mod from my system, and I'm having this exact issue quite often... So it's not XRE, for me... :/

Finally a guide which was able to help me resolve my game's issues :D
Thanks so much :smile:
And thanks for the 1-on-1 help too ^^
[EDIT] this needs to be stickied

Alright, it's been a while since I've been able to work on this mod, as I can't get the Creation Kit to work quite right.
It sounds like an entertaining mod but, I wouldn't recommend tagging it as lore friendly. Nirn is in its own little universe with it and its moons. All the stars and the sun that orbit it are actually rips made from when the Aedra left this universe. Even with coming up with a story for trying to plausibly explain why the Enterprise is here, this pretty much throws lore out the window.
I agree with this wholeheartedly. It's a cool idea, but not lore-friendly.
Also, to address the issue of 'lore-friendly', I did 'tag' it as only being semi-lore-friendly. It's lore friendly in that Nirn is a planet, and a plane of existence. Who knows what planets are in the universe? And maybe the galaxy Nirn is located in is far enough away from Federation, Orion, Klingon, or Romulan space that they hadn't discovered it up until the point in time that the game will take place. Besides, according to Clarke's three laws, sufficiently advanced technology can appear to be a strange sort of magic to the people of a world such as Nirn, and sufficiently advanced magic could appear to be strange technology to the people onboard the USS Enterprise.
-
Great idea. You know, I've always enjoyed professional-quality mods. This one looks like it will be no exception.
I'd love to see it when it's finished.
:D

Did you get a chance to read their Terms and Conditions? There seems to be a FAQ section on that page. Usually sites that distribute RFL (royalty-free license) products have a limited licensing requirement, as in products can only be used for non-commercial purposes.
NB: There's a section in the FAQ that mentions you can use RFL models from that website to create game mods.
...Oh. I read the FAQ and didn't see that section... >.>
Well, as long as I'm not making money off of it, it can be used? Alright, fine by me :D
I did read their terms/conditions, but as I am unfamiliar with legal jargon, I didn't know what was meant.
-
Like it says in the title, I'm considering making a space-themed mod for New Vegas, and using resources from a stock/royalty-free 3D model site such as Turbosquid. I am curious as to how the accreditation would work, and if there would be any issues with my uploading a mod that has royalty-free models in it.
If anyone has gone through this issue before and has any information, I would greatly appreciate any knowledge you could give me.
This is one of the files I would be considering for usage in the mod.
-
I don't know if I'll be able to do an exact port, or if you're even still looking for it, but I'll see if I can do this... It'd be good practice, anyways.
-
It would be good to have a sample of your voice linked, so that people can hear, and therefore evaluate, whether or not your voice would work for what they want.
I am considering making a mod for Skyrim, but I won't use voice actors unless I can hear a sample of their voice before I contact them.
-
I'm having the issue WITHOUT the convergence patch at all. I just want to know what the frick is going on with my game. I think the profligates messed it up... -_-
-
is project nevada cyberware an esm or esp >> move it down to the esps if it is bc you can not have esm after esps.\\ savvy?
should move performance of the gods all the way down to the bottom along with all performance mods
use FNVEDIT to check it will tell you if you have something out of order... BOSS depends on a data base and if it does not recognize a plugin it will stick it on the bottom
worst case scenario is to make a new clean save and disable all mods then load a few at a time to find the culprit ... you don't have that many ... when you sort it all out and have a "new working LO" you can go back to the previous save
The PN Cyberware and Rebalance are both ESMs, according to the headers, but marked as ESP. That's just the way it is. So PN:Cyberware is still supposed to be in the ESM files.
-
Actually I think they were Reptiles that were experimented on by the American Government and turned into Biological weapons, using the FEV virus if I'm correct.
The only Intelligent Deathclaws were in Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics, they didn't build any citys either, they lived in a tribal family system and the only group shown was in Vault 13
This is true, but who's to say the same experiments did not exist in other regions of America? Who's to say that the experiments did not occur in some research facility in the Big MT?
You know what, I think I may make a mod that re-adds Intelligent Deathclaws...
-
I'm glad I hadn't been on Nexus for AGES until a few days after this thing was posted... I'm one of those people who clicks on things that look interesting and hopes for the best ^^;
-
Ha, I'm actually working on a lore-friendly Star Wars crossover mod, but a different take: It's inspired somewhat by Sillof's amazing custom action figures, which are an alternate take on Star Wars characters in other genre settings. It's pretty far along, has a few quests and several followers and gear, and it's centered around the Oblivion Falcon... a ship that can teleport through the Aether to different spots around Skyrim.
Anyway, thought it was worth mentioning; so funny that we've had these ideas around roughly the same time! Best of luck to you! :D
Sounds interesting :D
I'm just having some issues with my laptop, it's not quite liking Skyrim atm, so I've been having difficulties with making the mod...
And yet, Fallout 3 works almost perfectly...
:/
Well, I'll hopefully get this stupid comp fixed, but it'll be a while.
