In response to post #8578969. i've tried downloading via IE and firefox and i find the same "error trying to get file"

In response to post #8577571. When using NMM for skyrim downloads i receive this message in the download manager: server busy or unavailable..retrying (1/5). it will cycle through 5 tries (1/5..2/5..3/5 etc). it will then repeat this process 4 or 5 times until i receive "error trying to get this file". i'm using nmm .45.5 and cleaned system with ccleaner and a restart. i can download all the mods manually without error. i can also install and uninstall with the nmm, just not able to download mods with it. Any suggestions?

In response to post #8572154. #8574319, #8574549 are all replies on the same post. beggers can't be choosers. Realize we are getting combined years worth of work (mods) for free. We should be kissing the modder's feet because they don't have to share their work with us. We'd literally spend hundreds of dollars for these mods if they were released as DLC. We should be thankful.

for anyone who is having trouble downloading mods with nmm you can attempt to download them manually and then if they are compatible with NMM, place them in your NMM downloaded folder, refresh NMM and the mods should be visible to install. It's an option if you like installing with NMM, but are waiting for the kinks to be fixed.

It's been that way since at least monday.

In response to post #8519409. #8519604, #8523520 are all replies on the same post. i've tried that a few times. i've also cleaned everything with ccleaner, restarted, etc. It appears that it's server side, but i wanted to make sure it wasn't on my end.

ive had the same issue. My guess is it has something to do with the downtime they reported

In response to post #8519409. i'm having the same issue. Did you ever find an answer?

I sort of new to modding in skyrim, but have some experience. I was wondering if anyone could explain how to create new food items for recipes? Basically i want to know if it's possible to introduce entirely new items such as vegetables, fruits, and herbs. i would want these items to look realistic so i'm assuming i would need a 3D program to construct the designs. Does anyone have any advice on where to begin and or the processes i need to follow? Thank you in advance!

i went ahead and installed the lite version, removed realistic lighting overhaul and added enhanced lights and fx and i haven't seen the problem we talked about.

i'll try it and let you know the results one more question: Should you pick and choose between HD Textures landscape and floral overhaul or use both?

for textures i have HD 2k Textures Full - Dungeons, towns, misc, landscape, riften Skyrim Floral Overhaul Visuals and graphics Enhanced Blood Textures Sharpshooters extreme ENB Envrionmental Distant detail W.A.T.E.R.

im almost certain i have a mod with 4k. I'm not 100% certain but 4k resolution sounds familiar. i just can't remember which one. No lag in a straight line, only when turning.

thank you for taking the time to answer. please don't prioritize my problem over your gaming. Just answer me at your earliest convenience. I wasn't aware of TES5Edit and haven't understood what to do with Wyre quite yet. Question 1: Is my setup (pc) able to handle all these mods, based on the specs provided? Question 2: From my description of my problem does that resemble a lag issue? Question 3: If question 2 is a yes then will these tools solve said problem? if not is there anything that can be done outside of a new VC?

I have an ACER 27" 1080p led lcd monitor as well. I'm not sure if that info is useful.

i made a thread about a similar topic a week ago, but i'm back to ask a couple more questions. I've downloaded a lot of different mods that have interested me; a little bit of everything. My PC specs are: Intel 3820 i7 3.6ghz quad core Nvidia Geforce GTX 580 32GB RAM Asus rampage iv MB I've installed a range of mods most notably: Enhanced Blood Textures Sharpshooters extreme graphics enb Skyrim HD textures Climates of Tamriel Armor & weapons mods Player homes and working on installing NPC and quest mods. Currently the total is 113. Here's my situation: My Skyrim folder is now approaching 20GB in size. Space is not an issue, but what i've noticed, and i may be incorrect in the wording, is a lag issue. I notice this mainly when i perform a 360 degree turn in an area such as whiterun outskirts market. It appears to lag. I'm not sure how to explain it any better. Since i'm new to modding skyrim i'm not sure what i should do, whether reduce the number of mods, tweak settings, add some utilities, etc. Any advice or diagnostic help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me along.

What is an ENB?

Thanks for the reminder; i was planning on doing that Install mod > test it out > rinse wash repeat. I wasn't aware of BOSS, but now i am, so thank you very much! Any opinion on which mods to use based on the categories budcat spoke about earlier?

thanks for the quick reply. I'll definitely use your advice. Now which of the overhauls, enbs, lighting effects, blood mods, and graphics mods (what exactly is this?) do you suggest? I would assume that one could have as many different player homes as they want, am i correct? But on the other hand it would have to be one breezehome remodel instead of 2 or 3 breezehome remodels?

I'm looking for some advice on adding mods. I've been playing the console version (xbox 360) for a while now, but this site drew my interest months ago. For a while now, i've been bookmarking mods i like. My problem is due to the depth and amount of different mods, i don't know where to begin. I'm drawn to dl everything i like, but i'm refraining from it until i find some advice on how to proceed. Currently i have installed: 1. Skyrim PC on version 1.9.32 2. Nexus Mod Manager installed (newest version) 3. SKSE installed (newest version) 4. SkyUI installed (newest version) Questions: I've seen overhauls, visualizations, cities, armors and weapons, npc's, homes and buildings, immersions, and large WIPs. There always seems to be different options for each category, IE: countless Breezehome remodels. I'm going to assume that i'd choose one breezehome mod and go with it as multiples would conflict. Am i correct in my thinking? How does that fare with overhauls and visualizations though? IE: Skyrim redone and Beautiful Cities How do you know if a certain mod will or won't conflict with another that you may like, oustide of the description of course? IE: STEP - Skyrim Total Enhancement Project" & "Enhanced Lights and FX Is there a safe amount of mods to add or refrain from adding? How much is too much or is it endless? It's like a kid in a candy store. I guess I'm basically stuck at where to begin when it comes to adding mods. Any advice on where to begin, rules of thumb, tips, or directions would really be helpful. One last question: Are there limits to the creation kit when designing a mod? I've never used the creation kit, i know it's available through a steam purchase, but before i consider getting into it, i'd like to know what can or can't be done with it. Like Most, I've always been fascinated with changing the layout and design of Whiterun. Is it possible to extend the city walls, add new roads, buildings, homes, stalls, and expansion of the breezehome? Do you have to start fresh or can one work off an existing mod? Again, thank you for anyone who takes the time to answer my questions and point me in the right direction. I greatly appreciate your time and help. Thanks again!

i've been waiting for a mod like this. just checking in to see how the progress is going.
