Warrior84 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Yeah I had that problem as well. But I was told here that it was caused by the time zone differences. Like during different times different mirrors were available. Not sure how true that is, but maybe ther's something to do with it. But it still felt like it favoured US servers.

slygeezer Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Given what happened recently, your decision to scan all files is certainly the right one. However, the supplier you've chosen is clearly not up to the task. A simple 4mb texture file by Millenia has been stuck in scan for over 11 hours. The latest YUP update for over 12 hours. If all your various game sites are using the same virus scan supplier then you are turning an addition that everyone should support into a needlessly frustrating experience.

maboru Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I still haven't experienced any download problems this Summer, primarily due to Premium membership, never using any auto-download programs as well as having an extremely fast FIOS ISP. So I thank you for the great work there. However, it appears that any mods uploaded since about 0400 today (on Skyrim, FO3 or FONV at least) have failed to emerge from the auto-virus scanner, which I'm guessing is a third-party problem and I'm not blaming you for that. (For the record; I've always personally virus scanned everything I've ever downloaded from the internet and I've never had a hit from Nexus with the exception of a few mods that were falsely reported due to .dll's.) I do fell bad for your team having such a labor intensive Summer though! ( I suppose that it comes with the territory.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badkrma Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 (edited) this virus scan stuff is slowing us down today, yikes.... hope this isn't the new standard.. Edited July 26, 2014 by badkrma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angryglock Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 It would help to at least acknowledge the virus scanning problem on the home page. I'm sure they are busy but a couple of minutes to let people know they are aware of the issue and are working on it goes a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rak1ta Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Bug with the purchase of improvements---When buying a house front garden "Honey" Jarl's assistant says that everything will be done. In fact, the front garden does not appear, the money is not withdrawn, a menu item purchases continues to hang.---Able to buy improvement after disabling the plugin patch.---Steam version of the game, Legendary edition.

But if it's about the Unofficial Skyrim Patch,why not asking in this mod's comments http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19 instead? --Drake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkepticalJoker Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I saw this virus scan issue coming. The Nexus has so many files that get uploaded and updated, it was only a matter of time before things got bogged down. Hope you guys get this sorted and I hope the stress levels aren't too high, since it seems like you're having one issue after another. http://lukraakvars.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/you-can-do-it.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkepticalJoker Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 But seriously, why not change it so that only certain files get virus scanned? It seems silly to waste resources scanning a texture pack. Maybe have some way to scan mods through the Nexus server to identify high risk stuff like executables and .dll files, then send it off to the virus scan. If those files aren't found, then upload it like normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anach Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Maybe a new button (red or orange) that lets users bypass the virus scan and rely on their own antivirus software. Or maybe enable downloads anyway, but pop-up a warning when files haven't yet been scanned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
