bongodoctor Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 I foolishly updated the USSEP version in Vortex to the latest version after a few weeks away and it is no longer compatible with the older SE and more importantly VR versions which is what I play. The mod author has hidden the old version(s) so I cannot downgrade and my install and all of the mods I have spent a year compiling is now completely broken - game won't even load! The current version is v4.2.7 and I need version v4.2.6a which is the last version that worked with VR. It should still be available as nexus doesn't allow mod authors to delete the files because they might be used in collections. I managed to find a link to version v4.2.5b (which works) but that is missing a lot of recent fixes. If anyone could send me a link to the version or a link to the zip file itself that would be amazing - it looks like USSEP will no longer support older versions of SE/VR in the future and for some reason the author doesn't want people to have access to older versions...

bongodoctor Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) Here is the link to the archived version of USSEP that works with SkyrimVR: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/266?tab=files&file_id=209150 - (also linked to in my collection: Dr.Bongo's VR Permadeath Survival at https://next.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/collections?gameVersion=1.4.15.0-VR&page=1) The mod author(s) say they do not support VR (even though it worked fine up till the last update) and will not give people access to any old versions - although they have given no good reason for this, and just delete your comments if you dare ask for one. There is a very long thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/comments/oy4ft5/arthmoor_removing_most_of_his_mods_from_nexus/ which discusses the probable reasons behind it. It seems when Nexus introduced Collections they changed their terms of service, so that modders could then no longer delete old files because this might break existing collections which relied on it (which makes sense from a user perspective). Apparently the modder doesn't approve of making modding easy via Collections (or Wabbajack) and doesn't want his mod used by SkyrimVR users, which he doesn't like/approve of - makes absolutely no sense to me as leaving one old version on the mod page for VR doesn't require any work and could easily be provided with a clear statement that VR support is not provided and it will never be updated beyond that version etc. Edited August 10, 2022 by bongodoctor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
