Mod Engine should be banned from hosting their software on nexusmods.

[showler]

Seems like one hell of a leap to go from "Nexus Mods staff don't agree with me on this" to "Nexus Mods must be taking bribes".  Ego much?

I had a look. There are a few games in that long list they have that I play and know reasonably well. I agree with others of you -  it would be easier to just drop things in through the console unless it's Icewind Dale 2 (which they don't mod - and honestly don't go to the bother just for me, I've fixed it). However, I'd like to give them cake and coffee because of this - and I quote -

"THIS DOES NOT WORK ONLINE!!! I LOATHE ONLINE CHEATERS"

Brilliant! Absolutely. Cheat in the privacy of your own home won't you.

It would explain how stoical they are... I sometimes think you'd have to offer billions and billions of gold to get me to run this site... *

*Keep the gold - it's still NO!

We get it. You are a Mod Engine fanboy. You can move along. 

[showler]

Never used it.

[ModEngine]

I share cheat engine tables as I have always done for my loyal userbase, with options that I think will not ruin the gameplay but help the fun, basically the way I mod games myself only giving myself ammo or freezing timers in annoying missions etc so not the usual health/invincible etc. The cheat tables contain no advertisements or any "nasties" that some users are scandalizing and lying about. It is not against the rules to share cheat engine tables as the biggest cheat table on this site is for Elden Ring and it contains forceful discord joining too.

Mod Engine app is NOT hosted on NexusMods. It used to be hosted on NexusMods but not anymore for a few reasons

• The app now behaves similar to WeMod paid app with paid elements so a big no no. 
• The app contained registration which I learned wasn't allowed.

And there used to be a stripped down version of Mod Engine (let's call it basic engine) that fully complied with NexusMods rules (no registration/paid elements) but I took it down willingly because sharing cheat engine tables is free and simpler to maintain than hosting a self-made app to code sign it etc. I have a huge following of users for whom I share cheat engine tables ( ABSOLUTELY FREE ). New to nexusmods but I have been active for decades and have made mods for thousands of games. Besides, hosting a self-made app also came with issues like new users didn't trust it so I just decided to share cheat engine tables for my old userbase and even new users find it help although I do get requests for the app to be brought back online but that's not going to happen, can't be bothered.

I hope that clarifies any confusion some users might have.

I am not going to bother replying to the insane stuff said here, it truly is insane to jump to such scary and malicious conclusions over a simple app and deserves no reply or attention. 

Indeed! accusing NexusMods of ill-play and taking bribes is something someone truly insane would do or someone with malicious intent who wish to create controversy, scandal and MAKE A LOT OF NOISE so NexusMods would be bullied into submission. A nobody like me would hold such power to control a million dollar site, I am flattered but   I laughed so hard almost spilled my coffee hahahaa 

 

This is my only reply and it is sufficient. I will leave with a disclaimer and public service information 
 

DISCLAIMER:

• Some posters in this topic are employees of WeMod and other paid apps or trainer makers who don't like to see their business suffer because I offer free cheat engine tables. They have bought all competing sites and can't buy me so I get attacked on NexusMods and Reddit fortunately with fail so far because admins/staff of these big communities are smart and investigate the actual report.
• The images in this topic seem to be fabricated and seem to belong to many of the imposter sites that unfortunately plague the trainer/cheat engine scene. Using fabricated images and associating me with such obvious imposters/fake/malicious scams shows the malicious intent of the posters making such claims.
• There are so many Mod Engines lol, unfortunately I couldn't even register my domain because someone else took it. I came up with the idea of Mod Engine way back in 2019, wasn't smart enough to buy a domain and before I knew it, it seemed like everyone was fond of the word Mod Engine like really??!!. Again, associating me with I don't even know what those sites are and claiming them to be me is just malicious. Heck, there are even a ton of apps that are called mod engine. There are automobile modifications thingies called mod engine lol
• Several posters in this topic are users who ADVERTISED PAID WEMOD in my FREE mods, I BLOCKED them from commenting on my mods so they won't be able to shill and in return they sent me threatening PMs, name-calling and insulting me 
• This topic is started as a result of me blocking some user from shilling for WeMod in hopes he would get me banned. Then some others joined who are employees and it has turned into a mess of fabrications, lies but this is the goal. To create confusion and get me banned.

 

The Mod Engine app that has paid elements has nothing to do with NexusMods, NEVER was hosted on NexusMods and NEVER will be. The fabricated images don't even have any association to me and are just lies never belong to me. I only hosted a stripped basic mod engine on NexusMods for a short time.

 

I share FREE cheat engine tables for my fanbase (without any of the fabricated lies shown in this topic) and I am a lifetime Premium user with years of contribution. If my association with Mod Engine OUTSIDE of NexusMods and doing things OUTSIDE of NexusMods means I deserve ban then I can point out so many users that would deserve instant ban. But what an insanity that would be LOL

I was actually thinking of changing my username so my free cheat engine tables don't get associated with my app but oh boy, there is no way I am doing that.

I am scared after seeing the fabrications and lies in this topic that someone else taking over modengine nick will share something malicious maybe a virus or trojan in order to bring bad name to Mod Engine app.

 

PS: Do NexusMods staff allow themselves to be maligned like this? There will be many users who will ABSOLUTELY not download any of my content (and there are many posters in this topic who have NOT used a single of my mod) will believe every malicious lie, fabrication including that NexusMods staff are being bribed and engaging in foul-play. What a distasteful malicious scandalous topic.

@Fireowl62

Don't bother. Let this guy pack his crippleware, tables and go away.

@ModEngine

Look, it's true that this site contains weird people sometimes, but being weird doesn't mean stupid. You think that after you changed your tactics a little this will work? Your statement is confident, yet empty and without any proof of your claims. Also I would make some points:

1. Can you explain why did you share some "cheat tables" which doesn't even work with actuall game versions and without your app are useless? It's a little strange that app which could prove your intentions (you didn't even name it exactly) is no more here, although it was compliant with Nexus terms as you say.

2. "New to nexusmods but I have been active for decades and have made mods for thousands of games." Very well, in that case you're propably known person, surely you can give me some proof (your nick you use/used in group you're/was and scene you're part of, reference of your work etc). Besides here on Nexus there are only your "cheat tables", nothing more.

3. Like it or not, your tactic is similar to criminal cybergroups (baiting user out to somewhere else, downloading some strange program which at last promises to give advertised functionality). And yes ABSOLUTELY FREE engine tables... which are in reality useless... (sigh). 

So in my eyes you're suspicious, untrusty and if you will not work really hard to make me trust you, it will stay that way.

This is for infinite crafting which is something you can do within seconds of a new  game

It of course, does not work as all your cheat tables on this site don't.

The link you give if we need help:

https://fearlessrevolution.com/viewtopic.php?t=30320

 

Your 'updated' table from the website you link to for support

We then have no choice but to either not use it (which never worked to begin with) or else download Mod Engine

 

So let's download Mod Engine!

https://modengine.net/threads/6/

Then we get the link from that site and it brings us here:

https://modengine.app/

We download it, extract it and get this:

 

Which we can run and you kindly removed the requirement for an account but still require us to be online so that is still unusual for me as Factorio is an offline game

Oddly none of these cheats worked but you're right, it could be that since every 'mod' you have is for version 1.0 of every game, I downgraded Factorio (the devs are kind enouggh to allow us to do it) and still no cheats work.

But then I thought it might be a different version so I tried the update that came before and after when the table was made and yet nothing.

But I can buy Pro to request you update it to an actual working version

 

So basically none of your stuff works, in order to 'update' it, we need to buy pro which is needed for every 'mod' you put out there

 

Now I do have a very important question about your post, you stated:

The images in this topic seem to be fabricated and seem to belong to many of the imposter sites that unfortunately plague the trainer/cheat engine scene. Using fabricated images and associating me with such obvious imposters/fake/malicious scams shows the malicious intent of the posters making such claims.

Shall I do a video of myself doing everything I've done to get these screenshots or will that 'fake' too?

You are running a scam. If the mods allow it, fine. I don't care - it's their site. But it's still a scam and people need to be made aware.

I forgot to bring this point so thanks for helping me clarify myself even more. Wasn't going to reply otherwise.

First, so now you are resorting to belittling my work and insults? Someone who hasn't shared a single mod is mocking my hard work.

Secondly, anyone uses mods for a small period will learn that mods are made for specific versions of games and games updating is a big issue breaking mods.

 

To call all of my mods useless/scam and i don't know what other disparaging words used shows your personal hatred, lies, fabrications and maliciousness. A quick look at my profile will show how many downloads I have and the amount of kudos, endorsements I have received, you are even calling those users scammers. 

If you think I will waste my time checking everyday to make sure all my mods are up to date just to prove a nickname that exists only on NexusMods ( why are you hiding your activities outside NexusMods?) you're not just malicious but insane. Did you ask me what game version my mods were made for? Why did you assume it was 1.0? Do mods/cheat engine tables don't have a version themselves.

You are such a malicious liar and fabricator that you didn't bother to give ALL THE MODS WITH MOST ENDORSEMENTS/LIKES and chose an old mod KNOWING FULL WELL that they will most likely be outdated. Why don't you bring my latest AOM mod? Why don't you use my highly endorsed mods?

How insane will you go with your maliciousness? Did I create thousands of fake accounts to give myself kudos and endorsements and downloads?

 

Lastly, everything you mentioned is happening OUTSIDE NexusMods. I am more active at other places than NexusMods and I linked the forum I am most active at for help. The mental gymnastics you had to do, you failed to show where anything HOSTED ON NEXUSMODS has remotely close to the fabrications you have accused me of in your images. I don't believe linking to other places for help is against the rules but if it's an issue, I will stop doing it. I didn't do it for my latest mod because I have no interest in providing help for it and moved on from the game until a later date (which you will obviously dismiss as easy to do and useless/scam)

https://www.nexusmods.com/ageofmythologyretold/mods/8

I don't believe NexusMods to be a cult which if you join means you are forbidden from doing anything in your life that goes against NexusMods rule. It isn't just insanity, it is malicious to Google me and then bring up things I do outside NexusMods as reason for my ban.

How much are WeMod paying you? It surely isn't enough that you make a fool of yourself and engage in such insanity, lies and fabrications.

 

RomanR 

Read my earlier reply, I have sufficiently responded to every fabrication. Except the thing about mods and game version which I didn't point out and this guy is using to lie about me.

The maliciousness/fabrications and lies of the accusers have been proved clearly and without a doubt. I am being belittled, mocked and accused of malicious things and asked to prove myself by users who haven't shared a single mod, who haven't received not even a thousand downloads OVER THEIR WHOLE LIBRARY and they are mocking my lifetime membership I received for free for contributions to this site, the thousands of endorsements I received and kudos. 

I am reporting this topic for slander, lies and mocking my work. I take my pride in my work and will not have it belittled and called useless by people who haven't contributed a single thing to this site.

Note to Moderators and NexusMods Staff:

The actual purpose of this topic is not to get me banned because the OP and posters know I am not doing anything against the rules on NexusMods or hosting anything on NexusMods that is against the rules. Getting me banned is a last hope for them but EVEN IF I DO NOT GET BANNED, WEMOD/other sites/my competitors HAVE SERVED THEIR PURPOSE!!!

NexusMods is insanely popular and this topic ranks first when you search Mod Engine. 

By slandering me on NexusMods, users will think I AM A SCAMMER OUTSIDE NEXUSMODS AND ASSOCIATE MOD ENGINE NAME with scam. And it benefits the business of the companies the posters are associated with.

That is the whole purpose of this topic. Because anyone coming across this topic is not going to bother downloading my mods to check if what is said is true or fabrication.

You can tell this because as time goes on, Mod Engine becomes popular and this topic is ranking higher on Google, more random users come here who HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED A SINGLE OF MY MODS yet they make outrageous claims.

They are even accusing NexusMods staff of taking bribes, engaging in scams and scammy behavior so anyone who wonders why I am not banned will believe that it is because I am paying NexusMods staff for fraud.

 

[RomanR]

"...who haven't received not even a thousand downloads OVER THEIR WHOLE LIBRARY..."

So what? Am I in some competition or something? These humble mods I posted here are my attempt to return something to this community, as I downloaded many mods for Oblivion for various purposes (although I use only handfull of these now). And they are mostly made to materialize ideas of others into Oblivion, so usefull only for handfull of people. The ability to make something from scratch on my own, make it to work the way I want and make happy the one who came with idea is all I need. Shame I don't have time for this anymore. Yes, you can call me a loser all you want, but as modding is just fun and hobby for me, I don't care about number of downloads or whatever.

Besides you seem missed my point. I don't care about your lifetime membership or what do you do in your free time, I simply wanted some proof of your claims. Thousands games you say and yet you still provided nothing more than picture of mods on Nexus (which I'm already aware of, I didn't want to insult you by not making basic checks).

...HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED A SINGLE OF MY MODS...

Strangely, I'm somewhat not interested either.  And reported? Suit yourself, I already had some of my posts removed by staff.
