Feature Request: Search for Mods that Require a Specific Mod

[UhuruNUru]

It can be difficult to find Mods that use a particular Feature of a Source/Master Mod, like the instance that made me think of searching for Required Mods.

TES5Edit Script Mods like Merge Plugins xEdit Script all obviously Require TES5Edit, yet a search for TES5Edit Script doesn't bring up all the Mods I know exist and the Individual searh for TES5Edit or Script brings up too many mods to be any use at all.

 

A requires this file search bar would be useful for finding mods that use any sort of functionality provided by a Resourse type mod. like FNIS, TES5Edit, Sky Proc or any Mod that provides a function other mods can use.

It shouldnt be difficult to implement, cross matching a name to the Required files lists, said knowing nothing but the generalities involed in searching, not the Nexus specific system.

 

I can't find any other way to do this if the Mods are not listed in the Master Mods pages, even when they do, they can become out of date.

That would require that all mods are tagged with their requirements....... there are a LOT of mods..... and some have been here for quite some time, and their authors have pretty much fallen off the face of the planet.. Little likelihood of the tage being updated.... Keep in mind, for it to work, somone (or a collection of someones) would have to set up every mod to be able to search on 'requirements'.

Good luck with proper tags...tagging wasn't a thing for about half the life of this site.

 

Sometimes, no offense @ Dark0ne, but google works faster/better than search features on Nexus. He'd have to invest much more than what is generated here to provide a search engine that is what most people think a search engine should be. Just search for keywords and sift through what you search. Sometimes there's a pretty little gem. Good luck!
