[On console mods, theft and Bethesda.net]

I think mods on consoles would be great. I think it's a major disadvantage for consoles. If they were allowed as freely as PCs, then people could code, interact and innovate.

 

It would be like microsoft making windows open source.

[Mod Updates - Auto uninstall and Update]

been almost three months. Any plans on re-enabling this feature? Been quite a few updates.

[Mod Updates - Auto uninstall and Update]

Rats. Ok, thanks for your responses. I await the feature's return.

[Mod Updates - Auto uninstall and Update]

Is there a way to re-enable it through the GUI or is it something only one of the programmers could re-enable? And I appreciate the rapid response, so thank you for that.

[Mod Updates - Auto uninstall and Update]

Hi to those who decide to read this,

 

First things first, I'm running Nexus Mod Manager 0.61.6 and I've got quite a few mods running (well over 100) and four profiles (loving that feature BTW). Since I upgraded to the newer version with said Profiles feature, I noticed that there is a feature that I rather liked, completely disappear.

 

When I used the update button in the past to find newer versions of Mod's, I got the usual exclamation point next to the number and I went to download the newer version. When I downloaded the newer version, it landed beside the old one and stayed there. I went to install the new version and it uninstalled the old one. Everything was fine.

 

However now, when I install a newer version of any mod, including the popular SkyUI, it doesn't ask me if i want to update to the newer version by uninstalling the old one, it simply installs on-top of it. That could lead to problems and I have to uninstall the old first then install the new. Before, I liked the convience of just double clicking and telling the software 'yes' to uninstall the old and install the new.

 

Can we get that feature back please? Unless I've missed it, which in that case, can you point it out for me? And what would really be nifty is if those who program the nexus could make it so that when you have a mod used across multiple profiles (I stated that I had 4 profiles, each profile shares over 100 mods with the others), for the NMM to recognize this and auto-update across all the profiles that have the mod activated? This would save me some time and I'm sure it would save others some time from having to switch profiles and locate said mod and do the same thing over.

 

I know something like this could take a few weeks of constant programming to a few months, but some feedback on whether or not it's a good idea/feature would be awesome.

 

So basically; getting the auto-uninstall feature back for updating to newer mods; ie, going from SkyUI 4.1 to 5.1 would uninstall 4.1 and automatically install 5.1. And as an added bonus; NMM would look at the mod being updated and scan other profiles and find [if any] others are using SkyUI 4.1 and ask 'hey, there are X number of other profiles using it, you want to update them too?"

 

Thanks for your time and reading.

[Potential Database Breach]

"I'm sorry for (potentially, at this point) breaking your trust in us. We'll continue working away at this to get a conclusive answer and, when we do, you'll be the first to know.""

 

It's the fact that the nexus is so open about security and other issues is a reason why my trust in you is still high. Other corporations try to hide things like this and that burns bridges.

 

Good luck with everything.

Do we know how to properly install and uninstall Skyrim mods without assistance of any sort , such as a mod organizer/manager ..whatever the tool preferred .. I know how to and I am sure many others do too.
Do we understand the risk of complete game FUBAR from installing them or using anything other tool, addon, patcher,sorter, script tool or editor other than what came out of the box in our game on a computer .. I do , and I am sure many other users do too.
These are the tools we ... WE choose to HELP simplify our Modding experience with . no one forced it on us.
If your game installation breaks ... reinstall the game or mods .. load up that last good save ... and there ya go
I think we all got really lazy and expected for too long a one button solution to mod installation ..
Something went wrong with our toy and we are gonna stomp around till Ma or Da gets us a new one
REALLY ?
Over 4k I have in Skyrim I have had to reinstall the game more than 200 times ..atleast because I BROKE IT TO complete FUBAR ..and the best part I know I am gonna the more I tinker with it
such is the life of a game modder
I use these tools also.. you bet .. but I also know I am using them at my own risk

No to mention waste of HDD space with mod folder and virtual mod folder. Now my skyrim takes around 40 GB and mod folder takes 30GB, virtual mod folder also 30GB. Who thought this will be convenient??
Now I manually uninstall mods and I will never use NMM again, its a lot simpler and faster to just copy file into Skyrim folder. When NMM was released it was really smart and simple tool, but now it's just waste of time, broken tool that outlived its usefulness

itsapainfulworld wrote: "Q. Mods are now taking up double the space with this version of NMM. Why is this?

The short version: it's not.

The long version: we're using a system in Windows known as hardlinks and symlinks (depending on whether you install to different hard-drives or not, NMM picks the best one for the task). Essentially, these are shortcuts that your operating system uses to stop the duplication of data while still presenting data in multiple folders. For example, your "Documents" folder in windows uses a similar sort of shortcut.

Using this system, NMM installs your mods to a single folder you specify in the settings and then places shortcuts in your game folders pointing to where the mods actually are for the game you're using. The shortcuts in the mod folder look and act exactly how they would if the files themselves were in the mod folder, but they're not. This is what allows us to accommodate multiple profiles without continually installing and uninstalling mods, and in a quicker fashion than manually uninstalling and reinstalling the mods you want to use.

The folder will make it look as though the shortcuts are taking up a lot of space, but they aren't. If you use 1GB of mods then NMM will still only use 1GB of space, not 2GB of space like a quick check might show. The easiest way to test is to check your available hard-drive space. It won't have increased any more than before."

Either:

A. Read

Or

B. Cease trolling and leave.

Updating is not required. You can still use the older version if you choose. Not supported just means the older version will no longer be getting regular updates as we just don't have the staff available to keep up with multiple versions. No updates also means it will not be updated to work with FO4 or any other new games that come out.

 

I still use the old OBMM to manage Oblivion, Even though it is supported by NMM. running them both has not been a problem. I just don;t use the NMM for Oblivion.

 

You can use both the old and new versions - rename one of them ( preferably the old one as renaming the new version will cause problems with future updates) And install the new in a different folder ( having both in the same folder will cause confusion) The new version will try to find your older games, just let it, it is not going to make any changes until you actually open that game using the new version, and then it will ask permission before doing anything.

 

The big lesson here is don't just click yes to every pop up you see. READ them, Then wait and let what you read percolate through your brain cells for a minute before doing something you might regret.

By now you guys HAVE to realize that this should have been handled differently, and that instead of screaming "You're to blame because you didn't read closely enough", you should be saying "We're sorry for the inconvenience, and are working hard to correct the issue" like any other professional business that isn't actually trying to go bankrupt.

@bben46 my apologies for blowing up your posting here, but I'm afraid this is necessary because I've seen too many people blasting the moderators about this update and I feel it's time that the record be set straight.
@phantompally76:

He's being condenscending because you and everybody else that are blasting the NMM team and the moderators are the ones that aren't doing your due diligence. You and everyone else claim that you haven't had ample warning. You claim that your skyrim install is ruined and you claim that you'll leave skyrim forever because of NMM destroying your game saves. The reality is, is that if you had read the warnings (I've linked them below), and performed backups of your save files, plugin lists and game data in general (there is a folder were NMM stores all plugins, I backed that folder up) You would have had everything safe guarded and when your install did crap out, you would simply reinstall, reorder, throw the save data into the appropriate folder and away you'd go gaming again.

Instead, you all clicked without thinking, without reading and your install blew up. You have absolutely no room or right to go to the moderators and shout at them for not giving warnings or explaining things. So bben46 is in the right for that tone because you and everybody else ignored everything then complained.

I read 95% of everything posted, backed up my saves, my mods and plugins and after everything was said and done, 1 mod didn't work. I looked at the mod's page, reported said issue that the NMM was giving me and within 72 hours the mod author had a work around. I applied said work around and now that mod is back in working order.

I also went into the fray expecting 100% failure. I got less than 1% failure on my end. Do you know the actual failure rate of the new version of 0.60 when it was released to beta? less than One (1) half percent 40/8200=.00487. That's a fantastic failure rate when completely changing the foundation of how it works mods.

I congratulate the moderators and the NMM team on their efforst and releasing so many patches so quickly. In-fact, I'm checking back to the site at least once a day looking for a new version to be released so that another bug that i haven't encountered is fixed and won't affect me.

People needs to be more appreciative rather than yapping and crying for what they did wrong when upgrading, updating or installing a mod and third party software, its all trial and error, and honestly, I'd rather have trials and error rather than having the developers who made the games a lot more fun stop making things more convenient for us gamers.

To all of those who are complaining about a ruined game or saves destroyed or having no ample warning about the possibility of all of the above:

 

You were all warned, several times, in several locations.

If you didn't take the necessary precautions of backing up your saves, mods and game data, that's YOUR fault and nobody else's.

If you didn't read ANY of the posts about the new updates, that are ALWAYS on the FRONT page, that's your fault.

That's why I backed up aALL my current saves on a DIFFERENT hard drive, backed up all my CURRENT mods to a different hard drive, and read through BOTH posts by the moderators about the 1/2 of a percent chance that something could go wrong including A, B, And C issues.

 

Hell, I archive old and new saves and make a periodic backup of my mods because of something that may or may not go wrong. And with such a complex game, why wouldn't I?

 

And right now, it's installing my mods. Do I expect a perfect upgrade? No. If i get a perfect upgrade, major Kudos to the entire Nexus staff/team.

TheThirdRace wrote: First thing first, I want to say how much I appreciate your work on these sites. You're doing an awesome job, keep up the good work.

Now, there's something that irks me a bit with how you envision the whole NMM BETA situation. You firmly believe that labelling a software as BETA is warning enough.

The truth is, it's not. Any software in BETA phase for more than 6 months is gonna be perceived as a final product. People do understand what BETA means, they're fully aware there might be problems when they first install your software.

Then, time goes on and users see things are working pretty good, they have nothing to really complain about and their perception goes from BETA to "Yet Another Lazy GMail BETA tag". I mention GMail here because it became a joke after being in BETA for more than 2 years. GMail was already rock solid after 3 months, yet Google believed that labelling it BETA would relieve them from any responsibilities/expectations... they couldn't be more wrong. People used their product on a daily basis, they still do, because that was the only version available and they became dependent. Any hiccups at that point would obviously stir a commotion.

NMM has been in BETA for more than 4 years, if you believe people perceive it as a BETA you're disconnected from reality on that point. You would have to either release it as a "BETA of BETA", an Alpha, an "Experimental version", anything that would tell people "we really mean it this time". Because right now, you cried wolf for 4+ years and people don't believe you anymore.

The other problem with perception is your revision number. It's pretty old school, I don't mind it that much, but if a product is below revision 1.0.0 for more than a year while being supported constantly, people expect it to fully work. Again, it's perceived as crying wolf and it's not cutting it anymore after 4+ years. Had you release version 0.5x as 1.0 and release 0.6 as 1.1 BETA, you wouldn't be in that position today.

No amount of "clarification" will work at this point. People ARE lazy, they see a new version, they don't even check the release notes anymore. They expect the new version of their "final" product to work just the same as the version they're using. Technically, it's not your fault, you're pretty straight forward about the fact it's a BETA with all the problems it could ensue, but public perception isn't on the same page as you are. That's a battle you can't win unless you put a tremendous amount of efforts to reverse the tide. At this point, the tide is more like a tsunami, good luck if you want to change it...

If I were you, I'd just bend to the public opinion in this case. I would simply rename NMM versions so it's clear you have a current branch and a BETA branch. I know you'd love to have version 1.0 to be the new UI and all, but you'll need to realize people don't care if they install version 1.0 or 34.5 at this point. They just want to know what is the current "stable" version and which version is a real BETA. You're overcomplicating things and you're reaping what you sow.

Anyway, that's just me playing devils advocate. I love the way this site is running. I think you have a pretty levelled headed team and you're doing great things for the community. Don't take my comment as anything bad, I'm not even remotely angry with the current situation, I didn't even installed NMM in the last 2 years. I just thought it would be a good opportunity to do a wake up call to you guys on something you've let on the back burner for too long now.

While you played devil's advocate, you should play devil's advocate to VLC too. They were under version 1.0 for 13 years. VLC is in roughly the same boat.

[Site slowness this weekend]

completely understandable. When it's slow, i attribute it to traffic.

Whenever something becomes successful in the community and people flock to it and it's free, a corporation will always try to spin it to make money, then things just go down hill.

Arrow keys on Images

 

We've update the image gallery on file pages so you can use the arrow keys again.

 

We are currently rolling out 8 new static content servers to try and resolve the issues with images loading slowly for people.

 

Thank you for reinstating this feature. And if the images load slowly, they load slowly. Half of the time, it's the internet connection the user has and how they have their signal bouncing around.
