eduardo4 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Adding my own experiences over the last few days attempting to mod Skyrim - w/POSSIBLE SOLUTION: - Was unable to download almost a third of the mods - no information displayed about connection status, they would simply either be complete or fail with an error and be marked incomplete. - Based on reading that premium users could still select servers from within the NMM (0.52.1) preferences, I signed up again (always a good idea!) and was able to download about half of the remainiing files after multiple tries through multiple server selections; now information about the connection speed as well as the file size and threads (sometimes) was displayed in the client. - The rest simply will not download at all: connection speeds of 9-14 Kbps show up in orange at the bottom of the client, and after a few minutes of no further information, the download errors out and shows as incomplete. Attempts to download manually are met with a "waiting for filedelivery.nexusmods.com" message in the browser, with no further action after the "we are preparing your file . . ." dialogue box - even after 15 plus minutes (Vilja, I am looking at you!) - This does not change no matter what server I select. Mods include Vilja, SMIM, Falskar, Immersive Weapons/Armor, and various HD texture packs. Fun fact: most, but not all, are listed as not scanned for virus, even after many months. Tried DNS reassignment, but no effect, bben. UPDATE: As I am writing this, the Vilja and Faskar manual downloads finally responded with a dialogue box!! Took over 20 minutes :confused: Chose to open with NMM client (manually browsed to it in the Program Files folder). After a short time, got the "{filename} has been added" message, and able to confirm the mods' presence in my GAMES\SKYRIM\MODS folder. A royal pain, but works for those of us that can download some, but not all of the mods we want. It seems the NMM client simply times out after a few minutes, whereas the browser is willing to wait indefinitely (even if we are not!) I hope that this helps enough motivated people who simply want to get their favorite mods downloaded and get to the fun of tinkering until our games actually work as intended (by me :kiss: ) - Erikose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lt4good Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I feel there is a need for an update on the progress made on the client/download system. I somewhat feel that this subject tapered off and I just feel like perhaps we should receive an update? this was posted a month, almost two months ago and I browsed it and nothing downloads correctly or at all for me so.. Update Please? Administration? Moderators? Someone PM me or chat or something so I can receive an update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
